How do I teach my dog to open doors. - Annuit Coeptis - 02-22-2011

I want to teach my dog to open doors by biting on a glove that is tied to the doorknob with a string and pulling the door open. But I don't know how to go about teaching him.

He is a 100% dachshund

Try to act like a dog and see what he does.

Put it near his mouth and get him to bite it, then pull on it. Once the door opens give him praise and a treat.

Try this,
Go with your dog in room with door,close the door,exit from the room and close door,im pretty sure he'll try to open the door,if he fail to open it,try that 10x times so he can see and learn how you open the door.

Get him to bite then give him a treat and keep doing that till he knows.

This is probably the serious closest answer in this thread. Follow up with this information, and you'll be sure to get your dog opening doors in no time.

I have never seen a dog open a door, I have seen cats doing that kind of stuff but never dogs.

I think this one is the most logical answer.
