Aww, thanks, you guys. That's why I post the videos -- to feed my ego.

If anyone is interested in teaching that trick, I found a book on tricks that helped a lot. It suggests looping the leash under one paw and luring the dog forward a step or two with a "limp" command. They said you can go from there to a "sling" that holds one paw up. I haven't tried that part yet.

I'd been working on this trick for a LONG time with no headway. I was just holding one of his paws. The leash trick sped things up a lot.
