Trick suggestions...

I used to teach a friends family how to clicker train their little GSD puppy to do tricks.

She can
Sit
Lie
Stand
Cross Paws
Bow
Spin
Rollover
Fetch the remote
Pull open a drawer
Hi five

He is looking for some more suggestions as to things to teach her. I have suggested weaving through legs.

She is still young so no jumping or strenuous activities on the legs ideally.

Suggestions as to tricks and links would be useful. I'm not sure how many props they have and I think they like fun looking tricks over useful ones.

I'm haivng a look through the kikopup videos too.

Thanks in advance

Thanks
She can actually crawl, and not quite getting hi 10!
They tried play dead but I think gave up with that one.

Will certainly suggest the others though thank you.

Have you got any tips on how to do shy dog? I've been working on it with Kestral with little avail!

Thanks I'm useless at listing things. She can put toys away and shut the door but thank you for the others I'll suggest those too!

Do you start with a tuggy on the zips?

Yes a small one, depends on how dextrous the dog is, I taught my dog to unzip my pockets and get a hanky out as a party trick.

Thanks that's a good one. Do you just mark lifting the leg?
Same with marching, what is the best way to go about teaching that?

I used the Post It on the nose trick and just click every time he swiped it off. The problem is that he thinks the trick is to wipe his nose and we have had some problems building up duration but we are getting there.

Another method is to ask for paw, lure the nose down with a treat then click for position. Shy dog lying down is super cute too, I just told him Down then gave he command and he managed to do it in that position too

Another REALLY cute one is Say Your Prayers
Oh, and bring a hanky when you sneeze

ETA: and balance a treat on the nose and when released, flip and catch!
