Lol, I don't do tricks like that, just basics. The most I have ever taught my dog was retrieval of any object, hugs, to be my brakes on rollarblades, to pass through my legs, and to dance..
I would most likely never get on my knees for that trick, I have always owned large dogs and have permanent bone damage on my cheek just from a pyr head butt (also have cracked enamel on my tooth!)
Is there a reason you want to bridge yourself? Why not tries hoops?

It's just that I'm too stupid. I only tried it to teach crawl.I have what prepares for agility not yet the ideal items. But for sure i'll have to hange the technique. Don't want to loose my front teeth like Ed Frawley describes this,I It's a handler mistake and not a dog''s mistake. Glad to hear about it . But in another conecetion. experienced! walks with them or dance with them between my legs in all directions is no problem, but obviosly I'm sometimes a bit to simple-minded.
I don't have hoops until now, but i ordered.

There are diff levels of dog, my first was just a companion, and was taught basic manners, and was fine, my Emma was smart, so I tested how much she could learn.
Stupid, I think not, you are using your smarts to see how much your dogs can learn, which is great for them! At least they try and crawl under you, rather than jump on you 
I think hoops would be fun! And less tooth loss  your doing great, sounds like your dogs have tons of fun, and get to spend quality time with you! I wouldn't worry about anything

Don't make me shudder! The 40kg Slippie jumping on my back!  Would probably be a worse accident than losing two teeth. 
Fun, yes we have thanks God, this is my main goal Tooth loss would be fun too I guess, but only for my dentist. 
You're right, not everything is stupid what i try, but sometimes poorly thought out. Well, at least we can always learn out of our mistakes or clumsiness.

Congrats, Becky, soooo sweeet! Did he get used quickly to his new home and his new parents?

A new puppy in the house! You're going to have fun -- and probably lose quite a bit of sleep for a while! Totally worth it, though.

He poo'd on the plane, so after a nice bath, he spent an hour playing the with the kids, he for now, holds his bladder for 2-3 hrs, even in play, and went to the door twice. Too bad that never stays that way eh!
His longest crate tantrum was an hour, anytime he quieted down I would take him out for a pee, and pop him back in, by 4am he was quiet after 15-20 min. Than Jim was up at 5, so when Harry started up again he took him out and kept him in the porch with him. Some man time, lol!
The kids are in love, and keep him busy for me while I do my meal preps etc. My son is not too keen on the howling, and barking in the crate, and went to bed early with pillows over his head, but I told him it is payback for all the loud fighting/ play we have to hear from him and his sister!
Pizzle sticks are the bomb.. Minus the fact that they stink to high hell, it seems to be his favorite chew, and he walks around with us from room to room, carrying it..
He is adorable, and settled down I would think quite quickly! <3
