Hes name is Bailey

tricks he can do:

sit, shake a paw, shake other paw, high five, high five other hand, (really high five), kiss, lye down, shut door and he can also loose hiself in and out the back door when he needs the toilet loll

awwwww i love it

Aww, he's so cute :) I wish my dog could shut the door :@

:O I wish my dog could close the door after herself! She's amazing at opening doors but she can't close them :( But aw he's so beautiful!

awwww bless it

Aww he has that sad puppy look :)

I've been trying to teach my dog to jump up against the door and pull the handle down but he's not having any of it :P

AWWWW! so cute ;d

what kind of dog do you have??
boarder collies are veryy intelliagant i used the word touch to get him used to it and hold a treat in one hand, point at the door handle, say touch and when he jumps up give him the treat
then teach him bit by bit to go a little further each time if you know what im saying :P

Yep they're probably my favourite breed. If I ever get another dog in the future it will no doubt be a Border Collie. Our dog is a mongrel - hard to say what exactly but he definitely has some border collie in him and maybe some sort of terrier. It's a case of can't teach an old dog though - although he looks older than he is :P

Edit: I watched a documentary a while ago which included a part about this Border Collie (in Germany I think) which is supposed to be the most intelligent dog in the world. It has been taught to retrieve any toy the owner names from a whole pile of toys (like 100 toys or something) and it can recognise the toy if you show it a miniature version of it or even just an image of it and it goes into the next room of the house and fetches the correct toy! I was looking for any YouTube clips and couldn't find him but I found a video of another one which has been taught similarly (apparently just on a smaller scale); http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pf0Vr0MSdHg :)

ohh right, my dog can recognise Ball, Toy (which is a small black tire thing) blue (which is a chewie thing) and pillow (cushion) loll
he picked up the Sit and shake a paw thing within the first 2 weeks we had him lol i also have this clicker thing and when hes done a trick correctly i click it and give him the treat :D

I never use the clicker thingy, cant stand them, i tought my dog without it, my mate taught his dog with it and now the dog wont do anything unless you use the clicker still lolll

I didn't mean to ignore your advice btw sorry; it's not so easy because he wouldn't jump up on it in the first place even for treats lol, and he's slightly bigger and I would say fairly heavier than a collie so it's not like you can just pull him up to show him either. He already sat when we got him I think and it didn't take long for my brother to teach him lie down and shake paw, but that's about it :P

Took this today :)
