I'll go first. Treat, tinkle, outside, feed the dogs, get'em, load, water, and a few more.

You go next.

Whoa, before feed

Gimme me kisses!

I forgot that. Both of mine know whoa, and hunt dead.

Fishing, boat, deer, ball, bath, outside, squirrel, truck. I'm sure I'm forgetting a bunch more.

GIT!! down

wanna-treeeeaat?

Ever squeal like a squirrel?

Sit, stay, heel, come, potty, eat, walk, snack, lie down, outside, no, bad dog, many more

Can't say I have. Is that normal?

Most of these with Max the Pitbull. Miss my lab from years ago "Gunner, go get me a Bud" He would grab what ever was on top in the cooler. Miss that Guy!

QUIET !!!

Lay down

Where's your ball?

ready for night night?


Why are you waking me up SO early !!!

I think the more things you teach a dog the better they will be. That said the only things they need to know are HERE, and WHOA. The first thing I always teach a pup is HUSH.

My heelers know what I�m thinking before I say anything, with the exception of the youngest. Female is deaf but she knows a few hand signs and knows what to do based on routine. My older male is the smartest dog I�ve interacted with, he knows plenty of words but I rarely use them. He knows what to do based on my body language. The pup is a one dog wrecking crew. He�s got sit, but he needs some work. Keeping his attention is a challenge he�s so wired all the time.

I had a lab that lived in the house for 13 years. He understood more English than most of the High school seniors in Laredo.

I rarely use verbal commands. A look, a point, flat hands at side, hands behind my back to name a few. When when I do use verbal commands, it�s not English, or any other language for thy matter. It�s words I made up and he knows what they mean.

Gus the Lab has a large vocabulary.
Whoa
Easy
Fetch
Dead Bird
Drop
Back
Left
Right
Come
Down
Stay
No
Go
Load up
Where's Momma
Momma's Home
Cookie (He can even spell that one)
Squirrel!!! (Even Maggie knows that one.)
The new one is "check the garden". When he see's me pour a cup off coffee he knows it's time to "check the garden".








Maggie the Jack Russell only knows Dammit Maggie and Squirrel!

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is this your ball? Good girl. Load up. Wanna go? Come here, Dingus! I said no! Leave the cats alone. Did you dig this hole? You want a cookie? These pretty much get us through the day.

Sit, stay, come, down, no, load-up, find it, fetch, drop, squirrel, deer, and at one point before he lost most interest in toys he knew 10 different toys by name and just about always would bring the one I told him to get if he didn't I would tell him find it and toy name and he would.

Sit, stay, lay down, roll over, speak, high five, dance, potty, chew bone, baby, and shut the door.

I use poo poo and tee tee.

For yourself or your dog?

What kind of dog do you have to use such foul language



We say Dump and wizz

My Dad trained and ran Blood Hounds for Angola back in the late 50's into the 60's. The first thing he taught them was, "Get in the GD truck!" He even fed them in the truck as part of their training. If a search party ever got lost in the swamps he'd just yell, "Get in the GD truck!" and they'd try to keep up. No matter how far away, they could always find that GD truck.
