Teaching your feathery friend the ‘step up’ command

Your bird is a wonderful companion and it’s important to you that she is able to interact with you in a meaningful way. You feel that training would help with this and the ‘step up’ command is where you would like to start. How can you teach your pet what this means?

Your pet needs you to understand that training is likely foreign to her and will take a little while to get the hang of. To help her, state the command when she naturally steps onto you from her perch or back onto something placed in front of her from your body. In time, she will grow to expect these words when she performs this action and will think of the two as going hand in hand. This will allow you to say the words and have the actions be brought to mind. For additional information, please contact your local vet Fox Lake, IL.
