I taught her to rollover...

Kinda. I just got her in a down and rolled her over, while saying rollover. Then I brought out the big guns "banana chips". I could actually see her debating with herself, on whether to do it or not. She did it! Not actually rolling all the way around, but onto her back. Good enough for me. She picked it up in about 15 minutes. You have no idea how proud I was that I taught her this.What have you taught your dog, that absolutely thrilled you?

My proudest trick that I taught Maze is to balance ANYTHING on her nose and not move. I can balance food, toys, random objects and sometimes 2 or more different things at once. She looks pathetic cuz she's pouting the entire time but she doesn't move. Took me two years to get her to master this since she is VERY food motivated. But I've got her to the point where she will balance pepperoni and cheese on her nose with a room full of dogs sniffing her, and she won't move. Won't even snarl *But she can and not drop the object. Lol* *beams*

Congratulations, and good girl, Tootsie!!! Harry says you can have one of his cookies for being so smart....

Proudest thing I've taught Harry is "leave it" when it comes to food. You can tell it's just so hard for him to resist anything edible, but he does resist, and I just can't help but be proud of him.

Lizzie is working on roll over but it's not QUITE there yet. (Probably a few more days.)

Her cutest trick to date, IMO, is 'waving' -
