Crawl, I put him in a down position and lured him with a treat. After about 2 minutes, he was understanding what I wanted and 10 minutes later, he knew crawl. This was one of the easier tricks.
Here's a good video:
To teach limp, I did exactly as the first video I posted of Zak George. It took Jackson 3 days. This one:
Catch has been hard for Jackson and he's still not 100% consistent. His eye coordination is apparently not that great, LOL. I would have him focus on me and hold the toy up so he was staring at it, then I'd throw it (I started at a very short distance) and whenever he caught it in his mouth or even tried to catch it, I'd say "Catch! yes!" We didn't really use treats for this one, it was like a game.
