Can She Learn 160 Words?

I read that Stanly Coren, dog expert, says that the average dog learns about 160 words.  I don't know how to tell how many words Coco "knows", but I decided to list how many commands she's mastered:

sit
go get it
down
off
free
come
stay
where's your ball?
go get daddy
on your bed
on your mat
shake
roll over
crawl
up
let's go!

I think that is about it, but we are trying to teach her to turn the light off.  That is proving to be more difficult than "shake."

  2. Coco......you are a smart petunia for sure. The list of words you have mastered is astounding and I'm pretty sure the list will grow.

    Shake is good command for all of us to learn, like in Shake Rattle and Roll !!!

    LOL

  3. Another blogging doggy friend of mine knows some pretty amazing tricks. His mom is teaching him the names of some of his toys. His name is Remy - http://onebluedog.wordpress.com
