| I was going to say you could teach him how to jump up on his back legs, but I'm not sure this is a good idea, aren't yorkies prone to hip problems? I do this trick with my big dogs.

| you mean stand up on two legs? Thats his stand command, he does do that but usually its for a twirl or a walk toward me on two legs. He loves it, he did it naturally so I just tweaked it into a command. I need a new one, he is very impatient and he learns too quickly. Im brain dead and cant think of one. I thought about balancing a treat on his nose but his nose is too small, haha. Even a cat treat would fall off~ help me

| Did you teach him sit and shake hands? I tell him to "sit" then I just grab one of his paws and say "shake". I did it multiple times then finally when I say "shake" he lifts his paw then I give him a treat.

| How about teaching him to catch a frisbee midair outside, if you've got a back yard or a park nearby. Our little girl loves her soft frisbee that also comes in a small size. |

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | wow he sure does know a lot of tricks. how about: hide your eyes (paw over the nose or eyes) wave (like shake except you don't take his foot and the wave is a little higher in the air then shake. i like this one when its combined with sit up) army crawl

| I love that one! I call it "cover". I have been working with my oldest on it for the longest time but she just doesn't "get it". LOL. The method I was taught it to take a tiny piece of tape (tissue tape, that doesn't stick) on her nose. I've also tried with implied direction. What is your method? I have no doubt that Queequeg will be able to do it once I start teaching her advanced tricks, though. |

The roll over thing was just me showing him how to do it and then praising him, after a while he would do it half way and I would hep him the rest and eventually he got it. I just do one trick at a time and work until it is perfected, while still reviewing past ones. Tino is 1 yr and 4 months old

| I am definately going to teach these, he is always grabbing his nose when he is sleepy~ I think that would be cute. But I think I will call it "where is the dog catcher" then have him cover his eyes!! That would be funny.
