Hand Signals

Bender is remarkably smart. Once he had "sit" and "down" mastered with the clicker, I only had to run through the hand-signals three times with verbal command for him to respond to the hand-signal by itself in a reliable fashion. The boys can do synchronized responses to hand signals without me saying a word!

Here is Bender chewing on what used to be an empty water bottle (he got to do this at a friend's house and now finds this crunchy toy to be the best of the choices). He has real toys, he just seems to prefer the bottle these days . . .
