I would teach it various gestures. And ways to communicate back. Might as well establish some things when the 5 minutes is over.

"When I make this hand gesture, it means I would like you to not do the thing you just did. I'm not mad at you, I just don't want you to destroy my things"

"If you need to poop, bump my arm with your nose and stand by the door. No need to bark."

"When I pet you it means I love you."

"Please don't bark when after dark. Humans need to sleep and barking wakes me AND the neighbors up"

Etc.
