| Definitely! Start as early as possible. Jackson also learned sit at around 10 weeks old The younger, the better, in my opinion! Your baby sounds super smart. Now a year later, Jackson knows over 20 tricks, so if ya start early... the more you learn!

| I've been practising with my Dexters sitting since I had him a week ago (at 7 weeks), well tonight he's finally got it. If I make the hand command he sits! Yay! He's not 100% yet but hopefully it bodes well! |

| What a little smartie he is. Yorkies just love to train. They can't seem to get enough of it. Keep up the good work, keeping him busy is key to a happy puppy. If you keep alittle kibble from his breakfast and dinner and use that to train with, you won't be adding any more food to his daily diet either. Just a suggestion. |

| Yep, Harley was sitting and fetching @ 12 weeks. But I didn't really teach her the fetch, she just always brought it back Now at 1 year old, she knows about 10 different tricks and we practive everyday still. If you put in the time, they'll learn quickly!
