You're doing better than I am with the dog training.
That's pretty impressive and a beautiful dog. :)
After 6 years, my dog knows exactly two tricks ...
Sitting, and climbing into someone's face and belching. XD
Maybe I shouldn't have encouraged her by laughing every time she did it :X
Also, I had that same couch years ago :O

HAH! Stella is almost 4, and she knew very few before I met her (about a year ago). I've been working super hard, and it's made me think maybe I would like to try dog training as a career.
Stella has plenty of bad behaviors that we accidentally encourage too. For instance, sleeping in the bed....most nights one of us ends up sleeping in the guest bedroom because we can't bear to kick her out/put her in her kennel. She also takes over the couch...lays on top of us...chews up our underwear....

the beige one with the color splotches??
That one. :)
If your dog's anything like mine, once they get used to sleeping in your bed, they'll do it forever ... mine refuses to sleep anywhere else, and even has her own pillows and blanket now. -_-

Beautiful dog!
The only thing my dog knows is "go" and he doesn't respond to "come", so that's a bit problematic.
Also, he only licks my hand when I ask for a paw :(
Not that I don't like this, though. I don't like giving commands, even if they're animals. I just try to teach some common sense to make him differ right from wrong and leave the rest to his senses.

Stella doesn't respond to "come" either. I make sure to give lots of love and treats when she does her tricks, and I don't push her to do any of them. The closest to "pushing" is in the chair and couch video. I'm thinking about going into dog training, actually, I love it.

Nice doge. I had a doge too, but didn't train much. Don't get me wrong, I hate when a dog is not under control of their owner, or disobedient, but that wasn't the case, and I was too lazy to teach him to perform tricks just for the sake of performing tricks. Anyway, here's a pic of that doge, who was by the way named Basso, a character from Thief. His real name was Unerschrocken Lennon, though.

Nah, I don't think they have much bad rep where I live. And from the two of us, I was the "evil" one anyway. Once some people online threatened to send animal protection services on me because I dared to mention that I think slapping is a valid form of disciplining a dog.

I had a Bernese mountain dog. He was the best for one trick : eating and getting fat like a bear.
But he learned one thing by himself : open the front door (which is heavy and has a self-closure mechanism) by pulling the circular door handle with his mouth then blocking the closing with his paw and making his way through the opening. Such a genius dog.
Bernese dogs will rule the world. Especially the puppies. I can't handle this level of cuteness.

I was able to teach mine (see avatar) to sit in his first few months alive, shortly after he learned to shake and give high-fives.
My wife taught him to roll and now whenever we break out the treats he will always get really excited and roll without being told to, even when i am telling him to shake or give a high-five or lie down.
He rolls in quite the laborious and awkward way too.
I having been trying to get him to sniff out the treat and choose the hand its in, and he knows which hand its in but he doesn't do anything but stare at that hand licking his chops..

I've been trying to teach my dog some new tricks! I thought I would see if anyone else is interested in this type of thing, and share my videos and maybe get some feedback :3
