Awww Mike is so cute. I trained with hand signals also, it sure comes in handy when you're on the phone or meet someone on a walk and you want them to sit and stay. Cody is not a tiny at 12 pounds but he's tiny to me lol, when we are out and about it is seldom but does happen he'll get bored if I am chatting with someone and he feels I'm taking to long, I don't take my eyes off who I am talking to, I just give the hand signal to sit and stay and he does, the person I am talking to is amazed that such a small dog actually knows hand commands and obeys, I always say because they are little does not mean they are not smart.
Keep up the good work, hand commands come in very handy.
