I have been amazed at how Chico learns names for all his toys. He is 10 mos old now, but has done this for a long time. Whenever he gets something new that he really likes, I give it a name (so far he knows ball, toy, squeeky, flower, paper, monkey, nano, green man, dino, stick, plus other words ) and I keep saying the name as he plays with it. Now I can tell him to go get "whatever" and he'll run all over the house and come back with that exact toy. l've never had a dog before that could do that. Yorkies are so smart! |
