What have you trained your pets to do?
How about your pets? :)

M$He sits in my finger and moves from finger to finger and will run up my arm. He jumps up to the side of the cage when he sees me and will just sit there and look at me while I get close to the cage and talk to him. What's funny is he will follow me allow over the cage. If I move to one side he'll come over until his face is right up against my face. Another funny thing he does is as soon as someone enters the house or walks up the stairs he starts to chirp.
He also mimics a lot of things that I have said to him. His name is "Tweet" so he'll say things such as, "My name is Tweet", "Tweet talks", "Come here Tweet", "Where's Tweet bird", "You're a bird Tweet". One of the funniest things he says is "Dirty, dirty, dirty" and "You have a dirty house" because I say those things to him when I clean his cage.

M$1. Sit down at corners when we're walking, and wait to cross the street
2. Go to the bathroom quickly when I let her outside
3. Get in the car or her crate when she hears "kennel up"
4. Chase the cat away from furniture if she's scratching it (this one was accidental--she just started mimicking our behavior)
5. Sit for food and catch treats
The dog has trained me to:
1. Let her out when she scratches the door
2. Give her water when she knocks her bowl around
I have trained the cat to:
1. Nothing. The cat is completely untrained.
The cat has trained me to:
1. Turn on the faucet for her when she jumps onto the bathroom counter and cries
2. Feed her when she sits by her bowl and cries
3. Pet her when she hits me with her forehead
I guess the pets are actually coming out a little bit ahead.

M$1. sit
2. high five (he stands on his hind legs and pats his left paw to your palm)
3. back... (he will walk backward, away from whatever you are intending)
4. bow...on command
5. stay... and then retrieve his toy when you say "GO GET IT" (but not on giblets, goobers, gidget or other words that sound like that)
6. down or lay down .... he will lay down
7. Let's get a bath... he jumps into the tub and stands still to get bathed
8. GET EM' he will bark ferociously at strangers outside
This isn't a command but I have diabetes and my dog knows when my blood sugar is too high or too low. When I came home from the hospital last year he kept nudging me until I sat up and then he kept trying to get near my face. I realized my blood sugar was too low and had to immediately get OJ and food. He has done this on 3 or 4 occasions since then. I have read that your dog can smell the change in your breath when your sugar drops or rises (that strange alcohol/fruity smell).

M$Lets see, we had one that by instinct knew how to open the fridge door and because we knew it, we kept a plate of treats for him on the lower shelf.
All of ours, we are down to 6, having to part with another (BoomBear) on Monday due to Heat stress caused Chronic Heart Failure, have us trained very well. At 11-pm, they either head into the living room on their mattress to watch with mommy Alfred Hitchcock and they have a nighttime snack or they will head into our big bed for movie and snuggle. They know how to read a clock!
We had a basset hound that could read Wal mart no matter where in the country he was. At the time, every Wal-Mart was still different in outside look, but he knew the difference between a Wal-Mart, Kmart and Target! He even had an immense command of the English language.
Mama has a great command of the language and she loves pasta with tomato sauce.
Princess and Sugarboog love chocolate and both do the “ chocolate dance”. And the other two are just cuddle bugs. Not really into anything other than continuous snuggle.
Shadow is well, my shadow. He needs, and loves to suffocate me to get cuddle at night. Come 11 pm he’s wanting to head to bed.
So you see we are well trained by them. We don’t even know what the last bite of a sandwich, bowl of food or dessert tastes like.
my life with 10, 9, 8, 7 now 6 furry babies.

M$My ferret is a bit smarter but I haven't taught her as much. I litter trained her which was a breeze and she's flawless at it. I've got her coming to me when she's called. I've got her walking on a leash fairly well. I'm sure if I tried to train her otherwise she'd do great, but I've never made the attempt. I just don't have a need for my pet to do outrageous things for no reason.
