How to Walk the Dog
- Walking the Dog is one of the easiest beginning Yo-Yo tricks to learn, and can be one of the most fun to perform. Walking the Dog is achieved by letting the Yo-Yo's momentum pull it across the floor, with your strings acting as a leash to keep your Yo-Yo from running away. Once you know how to throw a Sleeper (see Here), Walking the Dog should be as easy as...well, walking your dog.
