tricks count

Still no luck with cats, but for lack of trying really. I can't wait until she's good enough! She looks so happy when she's allowed off her leash indoors. : (

Aanyway, trick count (most of them still in progress, but I like to work on lots at once) at nine months, with three months of training.

Nahla (name recognition, also "look at me")
Sit
Down
Relax (onto side)
Stand
Cross (the street)
Sidewalk (get back on the sidewalk, you lunatic)
Come
Target (touch my finger with your nose)
Circle (left)
Spin (right)
Paw
Other paw
High-five
Hugs (jump on me)
Paws up (on my arm)
Beg (really, stand/jump - she's having a hard time with "sit pretty", so i changed it)
Bow (newest!)
Informal attention-getters: let's go, this way

Also trying to get her to paw at her face (Shame) on command, but I need to look into different methods to do it. She doesn't shape well (gets too nervous) and Kyra Sundance's method gives her unhappy-face.

I love my puppy. I love how she cannot/will not be forced into anything, but if you show her respect ... she will respect you back. Yay her. <3
