Boxers are brilliant

[KeeperBoy]

At least mine is! When we got Keepers he didn't even know sit. We've taught him sit and down, paw, other paw and now spin. I didn't even know he knew "spin" until we were doing a little training this evening. I said spin and he just went. I thought maybe it was a fluke and he did it again and again. It has seemed like once he learned those first few commands the rest are coming very fast. I can't wait to teach him more! He's such a star!

So what should we do next? We are doing a few commands on natural behaviors, like speak and sneeze, but I need another party trick type command I can teach using food.

He is so deep chested that roll over is really hard for him.

i agree. Tie leans commands without any real teaching. he learned words like "move" "look out" "where's your toy" "where's your cat" and a bunch of others just through repetition and association.

Boxers are the smartest

My favorite one was to watch my sister's boxer "bow". Front legs extended and head on ground and butt in the air. Awesome!
