One of the fun things to do with sheepdogs or any dogs for that matter is take a behavior that they do and put a name on it. Like if your dog yawns, tell him good yawn everytime and then you can eventually ask them to yawn and they will do it!! We forget that they know our language. Think about how many words your dog knows, go out, dinner, cookie, ball. Heck you can have a ball with this. Any of those fun behaviors that they always do, just say good.......whatever and then you can ask for the behavior on command. For a cookie of course. Nothing is free!!!
