Training a ferret

Question
Hi,
I have recently bought a ferret and would like to know if they can learn tricks, and if so, what can they do and how do you teach them to do it?

Answer
Training a ferret is much like training a puppy.  You can teach them a number of "tricks" using positive reinforcement and finding something your ferret finds rewarding.  Remember to keep things positive and only use ferret safe treats that are meat based.
