Aww... he's still a baby. We got Penny at almost 10 months old and had to teach her her name before teaching her to come. Does he look at you when you say his name? If not, training should start there by saying his name and treating him when he looks at you.
We started with obedience training before we moved onto tricks. Penny, our 2 1/2 year old is working on improving on all her basics with attention to focus, duration and distance. Our almost 9 y/o Guinness is solid with obedience, has gone on to learned quite a few tricks- say your prayers, sneeze on command, get me a tissue, moonwalk (Micheal Jackson), shut the door and push the button etc..
