Sage sounds alot like her mother Roxie. Roxie is the smartest yorkie ( or maybe even dog for that matter) that I've ever seen. When we first got her at 18 months she had been abused. If you went to touch her she would cower and shake, she was so afraid. So Keegan and I went off to obedience class without her. We'd practice in front of her and it didn't take her long to figure out that I would say commands, Keegan would do certain things and he would get a treat. Roxie learned to sit, lay, stay, drop it, give high 5, dance, and roll over without me ever touching her. She just watched me working with Keegan. It was an amazing thing to behold. I never did get one up on that gal!
