What tricks do your dogs know?

[mybeau1999]

Just curious:)

Along with the obvious ones like come and stay, my guy has: sit, down, paw, roll over, "hide your eyes", sneeze, speak, spin, (spin the) other way. He has kiss and high 5 also.

We need a new one to work on!

Mine doesn't know many tricks, but it always cracks me up that she gets so excited about doing them. When you tell her "lie down" she literally throws herself at the floor in one big whomp :lol:

She knows come, wait, in, up, sit, lie down, off, crawl, and shake. And being a lady, will only roll over and show her naked belly if no men are present :lol:

Wow! That's an impressive list!

I'm thrilled if my dog just comes when I call him. He has recently learned a mind control trick that he tries to apply to me if I'm eating ice cream. It usually works. :lol:

My dog knows...
The basics (sit, down, come, stay)
Over (which is basically laying down but asking him to flop over on his side)
Up (balancing on his back legs with paws in the air- can hold it for awhile!)
Shake
Crawl
High Five
Kisses
"Go" (I can point in any direction and he'll slink that way)
Roll Over

Does anyone else get frustrated with their dogs when you ask them to roll over, and they kind of start flopping around and half do it and then expect the dog biscuit? :lol:

Sit
Sit up (she looks like a meercat)
Stay
Come
Down (as in, get down)
Go lie down (as in, you're annoying me, I can't play right now)
Where's your ball? (or rope, or whatever)
Give it here
Tell me (speak)
Drop it
Dance (stands on her back legs and turns around)
Bang (play dead)
Roll over
Get up here/there
Get in here/there

We're working on:
Kisses
Shake
High Five

She really can't seem to figure out the concept of giving me her paw on command for shake and high five, so those might not ever really happen...

She's also crazy good at fetch/catch and is obsessive about it; shortly after I got her, she dragged out of the corner a saucer (about 24" diameter) for a potted plant, and brought it over to me, expecting me to throw it for her; she thought it was a frisbee! (Note, this dog is less than 20 lbs, about the size of a Jack Russell)

Sadly, not many. I am pretty busy. But my show dog knows "stand" and "go pee on that". The latter command is very handy when you are in a hurry....

(but was actually taught to capture the behavior for good manners in strange indoor environments. I HATE it when people allow their dogs to pee on the ring posts. My dog will not pee on lead without the command.)
