What tricks does your dog(s) know?

[duckboatprincess]

I just wondered what cool tricks other people have taught their dog(s) to do. I'm trying to come up with things to teach my dog. Here is what he knows so far:

Sit
Down
Stay
Wait
Roll Over
Shake
High Five
Crawl Bow
Up (Stands up on his hind legs and walks)
Wave
Down Again (Lays down on his side-useful for examining his feet)
Leave It

I think that's it so far. I tried to teach him to beg (Sit up on his haunches), but he can't hold his weight up. I've also tried to teach him to speak, but he refuses to do so, so I gave up. Besides, it's probably better he doesn't bark lol.

My Dog, Shatzie knows:

Sit
Down
Roll
Wait
Give me Five
Other one (it's where she uses the opposite paw to shake)
Jump (she jumps through a hoop)
Pirouette (she turns in a circle)
Stand (she stands up and still...works great for grooming)
Drop it
Get it (fetch)
Bring it to me (whatever she happens to have she brings it)
Heel


I think that is it..right off the top of my head anyway. One of our other dogs we trained to speak but Schatzie doesn't like to bark

Mine know how to steal the covers and pillows and how to move me to the edge of the bed out of their way without waking me...

seriously:

off
quit
enough
come
stay
wait
lets get the mail-dash to the door and to the mail box at 90 mph
lets feed the birds-dash to the feed room door at 90 mph
what is it-dash to the door at 90 mph to see
lets go to bed-dash to bed at 90 mph to get best spot
bath time-totally disappear


the response to "what is it?"

Sit
down
enough
LEAVE IT
drop it
here
away

Those are the verbal commands. Tesla knows the following non-verbal signed comands:

sit
down
no
here
stay
drop it

What about cats??
sit up (beg) -all cats here have to know this one to be fed treats
no - everyone and Nod knows the verbal and hand sign
down - Nod (verbal and hand sign)
leave it - Nod and Onyx
here - Nod (verbal and hand sign)
enough - everyone

Nice dobie butts, duck walk.

Gee guys, I don't think obedience or other performance commands are tricks. I always thought 'tricks' were like speak and wave and whatnot.

Hey, give me my dogs back

Oh wait, mine are Austrailian Shepherds, and mutts with the same behaviour as your Dobermans!

I have a hardheaded partially deaf dog and 5 bassets, one of which is blind..... commands are tricks for us!! Especially the non verbal variety.
