what tricks does your Yorkie know?

[T Doll]

lol your poodle is very smart I want to teach Mocha to roll over and play dead...but for some reason he can't grasp the concept of laying down I know with most dogs, you get them to lay down by bringing the treat to floor, but with Mocha, he's already so low to the ground that he doesn't need to lay down to get to the treat Sometimes he'll put his front feet down, but still has his little butt in the air

For Bang Bang.. we did Bang Bang then put him in the play dead command. Repeat.... Lots of treats and praise.

My poodle taught himself Bang Bang. He learned from watching Sam that when we said Bang Bang, Sam falls over dead and then gets a treat. So now when we say Bang Bang regardless of where we are .... Martin falls over dead

Katy Lou knows:
sit
sit/stay
down
down/stay
come (not good at this one)LOL
wait
leave it
trade (works well when she has something she shouldn't)
go beddy
She is 6 months old and took an 8 week puppy class starting at four months.
Down was the hardest to teach her. After she is spayed and healed I am going to sign up for "intermediate".

I taught Bengi many tricks when he was less than 1 year old and he still knows them. I have to teach him more, he's very smart as well! He know sit, down, shake it, play dead, beg, high five, stay (when he feels like it ), talk.

Izze knows sit, cookie, food....
she really doesn't like to learn. I've been working with her, but unless she gets something out of it, she's not interested. But that's okay; she is much more obedient than my other dogs.. with her, I can open my door without worrying about her flying out, she does not bark (unless she is talking to me), and she doesn't get excited around strangers (she is more interested in me).... my others know tricks and they get too excited/talkative and they will fly out of the house if i weren't so paranoid.

Roxy is so smart and responsive to trainig she can do it for an hour straight, although she learnt most of her tricks within 10-20mins. By 4 months she could:

Sit
Lay down
Shake a paw
Roll over
Stay
Go get the toy
Get in you bag - so cute cuz she hops in her carrier bag

I want to teach her the bang trick but I'm not sure how I do it. Is there a good website that shows how to teach your dog new tricks?

Yorkies are such SMART animals and mine is no exception.

She is 7 mos and knows:
Sit
Stay
Wait
Come (she knows it but she has been testing me lately on this one)
Cuddle
Kiss
Down
Off
Shake or give paw
Be a good girl (i.e stops what ever she is doing and either sits or lays down for a treat)
Leave it

We are working on rollover and then play dead but with little success. Girl doesn't like to be on her back.
