My German Shepard- Red Cloud- has picked up the basic commands (sit, down, stay) really quick and I'm at a lost as to what to teach her next. Any ideas?

roll over is fun, they have books on all the neat tricks you can teach them. my son even taught his lab how to answer this question: what does the dog say when she sit on sandpaper he r answer rough( ruff) another friend taught her German Shepard to play dead or she say bang bang he lays down all the way til she says good boy & he is ready for the treat .

GSD are problem solvers & love activity. I would say useful tricks like turn on/off light switch, open doors, fetch & then later to pick up items or retrieve specific things such as "Bring the leash".

The 'come' command is the most important of all. If she is in danger, say a car or another dog, you need to be able to call her to you. So that she moves away from the risk. GSD's are great dogs; just wish they didn't shed so much!

We have always had German Shepherds and they are extremely intelligent. My brother actually trained his two GS to use a certain area in the yard to do their business. He also had them so well trained that one after after eating he took them out back to do their business and they did. Amazing. My GS loved to play fetch and was quite the athletic. She would leap really high in the air to catch the tennis ball. She was trained to bring it right back and drop it. She's is very old now and not able to do the things she did as a youngster. However, she still loves her walks even though they have become at a very slow pace. Think outside the box and enjoy watching your dog learn these new tricks. They want to so please you so they are easy to train. Big rewards when they accomplish the task. Enjoy your new family member.
