Hmm I'd say 15-16 weeks. The only way to keep his attention are treats so it worked out haha The "paw" and "high five" commands came after lay down. Those weren't too hard to teach. For "paw" i just put the treat in my fist and put it out in front of him and said "shake". Then when he put his paw out, I grabbed it and would praise him. The high five was easy cause he practially already does that when I put the treat up high anyways lol After a week or two of doing these tricks, he started doing them without the treats in my hands so now I just go grab and treat after he does it.
These doggies are such fast learners!
