    My poor girls know so many tricks, that it is difficult to teach them new ones...they try so hard to please but don't know what you want when you try to teach a new one, so they go through everything they do know...but they eventually catch on. Recently we were trying to tech Sadie to "Swing" which is when she is facing you to come around into heel position. She was so confused at first, she was rolling over, twirling, laying down, playing dead, shaking, hi-5-ing...anything she could think of! Little food motivation and she got it though

    Yeah, Tango will learn any trick with a vienna sausage reward. He sits, speaks, shakes, dead dog, rolls over, spins, dances and jumps. And they said that you can't teach an old dog new tricks, he is a quick learner.
