The Shelties learned some new tricks [Photos]

[binka_nugget]

I just needed an excuse to post some new pics. :o

The boys learned some new tricks last night. Gosh, I just love clicker training. They picked up these tricks in a matter of minutes. I'm so proud of them. :D

I'm especially proud of Kaedyn. Five months ago, he didn't know a single command. In those short five months, he's completed basic obedience with flying colors, has such a great recall and has picked up so many new commands.

Kaedyn's new tricks..

:D Hope you liked them!

[wolf_Q]

Wow, you've had Kaedyn 5 months? You've done a wonderful job with him! I remember seeing pics of him sad in the shelter...he's become such a gorgeous, talented dog! :)

Great photos! It looks like Kaedyn and Kai pick up tricks very quickly! I really like the pic of Kai jumping over your arm, that's awesome! :D

I need to get off my butt and teach Nebo some new tricks! Clicker training is great!

[jenfer]

Me too. I am very impressed with Clicker Training. :D And we are gonna take somc Clicker class next month. I can't wait. :D

And your boys are doing such a good job too. :D

[ChiRen]

Aw what adorable dogs!
Great pictures! :)

[Shelteez2]

Great pics, as always.
And smart shelties....as always ;) (Nope absolutely not biased towards shelties...nope not at all.)

And kudos to you for being motivated enough to teach them.
I am so lazy *sigh* I always say that if my dogs had a different owner they could know so much. Ah well, one day I'll be unlazy and then watch out! LOL

[cloverfdx]

Yay for clicker traiining, it was the best thing i havve ever done for Clover :)

Your boys are stunning as always :D and so smart.

Great pics thankyou for sharing them.

You dont need excuses to post pics ;)

[delidog]

Those are Fabulous Pics!!!!!
Congratulations!!!
Great Training & Such Smart Shelties!!!!!

[dukedogsmom]

They are so cute! How do you learn how to clicker train? I'm sure Duke's not too old to learn some new things. I would love to teach him how to bow. He was doing it so cute the other night but by the time I got the camera, he quit. I like the last pic the best. They really compliment each other.

[EssTer]

What a good dogs ;) I´m so happy about them ;) great photos and tricks :D

[wolfie]

Wow, they learned all those last night? You've got some smart pups! ^_^ Very cute pics too I might add. :D

[K9soul]

Adorable pics! Sheltees love to learn too and they look so happy doing their tricks :). Nice job Kai and Kaedyn! (and nice job to your Mommy too!)

Your new siggy is cute too :)

[binka_nugget]

:D Thanks everyone!

Wolfie: Most of them were taught last night except for jumping. He learned it a while ago but it was his first time jumping over arms and legs last night. :)

Val: Clicker training is sooo easy. It's basically just clicking the exact moment your dog does something you like. It's like "YES!" except it doesn't change pitches each time so it's very consistant. I'd be happy to give you tips if you'd like to try it out with Duke. :)

[dukedogsmom]

Yes, I would love it! I would like to know how to teach Duke to do this: http://www.boomspeed.com/dukedogsmom/beachday028_1.jpg on command. It's just too cute.

[kimlovescats]

Beautiful and SMART Shelties you have!!!:)

[tikeyas_mom]

cute pics!!! i love the one of kai going through your legs

[Miss Meow]

They're so clever!

I'm a bit envious. Last night at training Buffy ignored every command and pretended that I was an alien from a distant planet. :eek: ;)

LOL! I know that look.. I get it when I'm telling the dogs they have done something naw-tee :D

[jenfer]

I teach Gigi "hand" today and she keep offering her hand to me even when I am not clicking. haha... And she thinks getting my clicker will give her food too. :rolleyes: haha...
