Cash, our Anatolian x Border Collie:
Sit
Stay
Come
There (which means lay down)
Down (which also means lay down)
Shake
Other one (which means shake with your other paw)
Wave
Other one (which means wave with your other paw)
Woof (bark on command)
Hoof (which is a quiet bark¡Xkind of like exhaling)
HELLO (he kind of says it!)
BANG! Which means dead dog
Bloated Road Kill! Cash will roll onto his back & stay there! LOL
Stallion (rearing up on his back legs)
Watch him (he gets into the Border Collie mode and intently watches something)
Leave it! Means leave whatever it is you¡¦re after, ALONE. Now.
Bring it (and you can make up a word for something like Bring it (bring the bucket and he'll keep going over to things and looking at you to see if that's what you want). It's pretty amazing!
Get em! Attack signal--works on coyotes, my husband, cows, LOL
BZZZZ (Cash hates that or the word "bees" or anything that sounds like it.) He goes NUTS, snapping his jaws. It's PTSD from being attacked by a hive that was built in his kennel. Poor thing.
Back
This way (as you point to the direction he needs to go to find his lost tennis ball). What is really amazing about this is that he has to do it backwards--since he's facing you--and he DOES!
Ariel Assault (LOL) he will know the frisbee will be put up in to the air
He knows a lot of words, too:
Ball
Frisbee
Chuck-it

Brodee on the other hand, LOL

There (lay down)
Dead dog
Comes when he's called (most of the time and only if he KNOWS you can see him, LOL)
