Galen learned it pretty easily, because I introduced it to him when he was in his land shark phase. All I had to do was dangle something - anything!- in front of him, and he would lunge at it. The harder part was persuading him not to sink his teeth in. I did that with clicker training. A touch from his nose or muzzle got a click and treat; a touch by the teeth did not. There were a few painful days where I sat there with him chewing on my hand.
