Clever or what!

I was doing some work with Benj today and decided to try and shape putting a toy in a bucket. Couldn't be bothere dto go in for a toy so I found an old plastic thing lying around behind the car and I used that. He was totally confused and didn't even want to hold it---it was a bit earthy I suppose! So I stopped and chucked it behind the car again. Then worked on walking back.

The others are all behind a fence and a small wall and I swopped Benj for Etta and she came flying out, got the toy and put it on top of the bucket.

So she had not only remembered where the toy was, she had put together what I wanted Benj to do with it and done it.

That is really not supposed to be able to happen!

Fab, how clever
I know the boffins say dogs can't learn by watching
Mia didn't get the paper

She was in her crate watching Ben learn left and rights
Days later I asked Ben for a left when she was close buy too

And I had two dogs doing left

I bet Etta is a Collie!?

Izzy watches Parker too and has picked up "left paw right paw" from him. I have taught Parker to walk round Izzy whilst she is in a sit and for some reason she sits there raising one paw after another!
