He has successfully gotten her to say "rabble rabble" and on rare occasions we will get an almost "I love you". It's hysterical when she's at the dog park with other dogs. She doesn't bark...she "talks" to them instead haha

my Great Pyrenees used to say his prayers kneeling down with his nose between his paws mouthing verbage. From 5 feet away, you'ld swear he was talking.
I love dogs that do tricks. Personally I don't care for Pits, but it's from a bad experience. Doesn't mean i think they should irradicate the world of them, only the stupid owners. I think teaching those dogs something "doggy like" is a great idea. Beats the heck out of "tear up the rag doll"
How old is she now? She's starting to loose that "puppy look" a little bit.
I may call her dummy or dum dum but she definitely is the complete opposite. She knew exactly what she was doing and was trying to see if I was the stupid one who thought she was laying down lol. She knows when she does tricks she gets rewarded. Positive reinforcement training works so well with them.Craiger said:Definitely a cute dog! I loved the part where she was being told to lay down....and it's clear that she thinks she is....only to still have her butt in the air. Too funny!

I was thinking about teaching her to bow down.
Yep! I want her to be the example that Pits are just misunderstood, over-sized, wannabe lap dogs.ladyknite said:I was thinking about teaching her to bow down.
awwwwwww that would be cute! After her little "performance" of tricks, she can take a bow.
