Answer 5

There is a section about ferret training in the book "Ferrets for Dummies" by Kim Schilling. You can get it online, at your local bookstore, or at a library. It tells you how to teach your ferret to beg, dive for treats in water, and more tricks.

Good luck training your ferret!

Answer 6

Why will teaching your ferret stop your dad taking her away?  

Ferret can be taught to do things by food association. But only limited things. A ferret is very head strong and only does what he/she wants to do.  You can teach a ferret that a certain noise means food and they'll come running and if you hold something just out of reach they will stand on their back legs. This is not a trick merely the ferret wanting the treat.
