Eleanor is 15 weeks old and I started teaching her commands at 10 weeks. Her commands are: watch me, come, sit, stay, lay down, roll over, drop it, go to bed, army crawl (she does it more like army hopping), kisses, potty, circle and my favorite, "girlfriend" which is most dogs "shake". I cant think of what to teach Eleanor next. She loves to learn, and perform for her puppy food, lol, so her meals are a lot of fun for us both.

Okay, well mine know to go potty on the pee pads - sort of a trick, maybe if you twist your head when you say it. We are working on sit, down, and come, but with two of them, they tend to get distracted easily. They are almost 19 and 17 weeks and super smart - but like gifted human kids they are just not applying themselves yet!

I can't wait till I get my baby, I hope and pray she is as smart as all of yours.

How long each day to you work on tricks?

WOW! That is amazing. I have never thought of using the actually dog food as the "treat" thats smart of you.

You guys are all amazing. I must be real slow because Oz only knows sit and speak (both hand, not voice, commands). We've had him for almost a month, but all we were concerned about at first was potty training. I hope that over the next two months we can teach him all the basics.

Can anyone suggest a good site or youtube videos that are good for learning how to train a dog?

AWW, Jackson is sooo cute !! wonderful yorkie you have ! I love his tricks

Fido knows:

Walk with heel
Sit by heel
Lay at heel
Stay
Come
Sit down when he's walking towards me (Im teaching him to lay down too !)
High Five
Awesome ! (then he putts both his front paws on my hand and sits up while doing it)
Bye bye! (waves)
Sit
Lay down
Roll over
Roll over many times in a row
Up (stands on his feet)

Ohhh there is some more but I can't remember at the moment!
And also he can do all the tricks on command and also by a sign that I either give with my hand or my feet ! I teach him everything with both words and signs incase he would go blind some day or couldnt hear

Also its nice to not have to say something so he will do it, just do something with my hand or foot

FidoTheYorkie · 07-23-2011, 04:57 PM

Oh one thing I remembered, Fido knows how to crawl !

Mom to Hot Rod · 07-23-2011, 09:08 PM

Brit, Jackson is such a cutie! Love the video and of course the star-Jackson!

My 2 know:

sit,
come,
down,
crawl,
right and left paw,
dance,
spin,
stay,
roll over,
leave it,
Hot Rod knows speak.
kisses (from them to me and then from me to them-they will hold their turn their head so I can kiss them)
high five, currently teaching - give me five (difference of not jumping up).
touch--this is done several ways: touch me, or run over and touch daddy. I also use to jump thru a hoop and from one spot to another (I use 2 ottomons).

I was starting to teach catch per another thread on here but it wasn't going well. I need to get back on it.

That's phenomenal at 14 weeks! It's nice to see so many smart Yorkies and dedicated trainers here!

And, Brit, I don't know if I never saw that Jackson vid or if I wiped it out of my memory in jealousy! He's a trick god!

MamaZiggy · 07-24-2011, 05:27 AM

MamaZiggy · 07-24-2011, 05:29 AM

Mike, don't flatter him! He will get a big head. Eddie is the Yorkie who inspired him, you know? I remember watching you YouTube videos when we first joined and realizing, "Oh, Yorkies CAN do that stuff!"
