Mr. Smarty Pants aka Hero
I have a self proclaimed smarty pants in the family and his name is Hero. My puppy is less than 3 months old and he already knows how to follow quite a few commands and even do some tricks! Here's the running list of things he knows:
- Hero: he knows his name! Oh and my parents call him "Ying Hung" which is Chinese for Hero.
- Go Potty: where to pee and poo on his pad in the washroom (most of the time)
- Sit: well duh, sit! I must add that he sits in front of all doorways before going through though
- Down: he lies down flat on the floor
- Give Paw: he offers his right front paw while standing up
- Stay: he doesn't move... until you say "ok"... well actually, that's still a work in progress
- OK: the release command from a stay... but will eventually be the release for anything
- Go Get It: he runs after whatever you've thrown that he has interest in
- Off: drops the toy (or sometimes yuckky things) that's in his mouth and/or he backs off what he's trying to bite, chew or jump on
- Come: he'll run to me... but he's still not doing it 100% of the time, so I'm going to have to only reward him all the time when he does come
- Go Inside: he runs into his crate and sits or lies down in there
- Go Here: he runs to where I'm pointing while saying it.
- Let's Go: to continue walking despite distractions
- NO!: he kinda stops doing what he's doing
- No Bite: yeah... this one he hasn't completely perfected yet, but we're working on it
I am noticing that his attention span is starting to dwindle a little bit as he ages... I read that it's normal though because the puppy's hormones are starting to kick in. Ah well, that'll be taken care of in a couple of weeks when Hero gets neutered!
On with the learning though!! I want a smart super hero of a puppy! =D
