Instructions
Sitting
Decide what you want to train your Tibetan terrier to do, for example, sitting on command.
Tell your dog to "sit" and gently force its rear legs down on to the ground.
Reward your Tibetan Terrier with a dog treat once its rear legs are stationary on the ground and it is properly sitting.
Repeat Steps 1 through 3 several times in a row to reinforce the command into your dog's mind.
Command your dog to "sit" without physically aiding the movement of its rear legs, and reward it with a treat once it begins to sit on its own.
Puzzle Solving
Get your Tibetan terrier's attention by holding a treat in front of its snout or by engaging it with one of its favorite toys.
Place a treat or one of your Tibetan terrier's toys in a corner of the room or on top of a piece of furniture, covered by pillows and blankets.
Encourage it to find the treat or toy. Show the dog where you are placing it initially before you cover it, if your dog is having trouble learning that it should be finding the toy.
Reward it with a treat, and tell your terrier that it's a good boy once it finds the toy or treat. Tibetan terriers are an intelligent breed and love to solve puzzles, so the more complex you can make this, the more engaged your dog will be.
