Default How big is your dogs understanding of what you say?

My dog knows a lot of words. Besides his array of command words he also knows 'cheese, cake, rabbit, what's that?' and numerous other words.

We like to think he's a clever little chap, so how is it when he's sitting on Steve's lap and I say, "where is Steve" he jumps off him and runs expectantly to the door?

I think he's probably used to that 'Where is Steve' command word - he knows he goes and waits by the door probably.

My dogs understand walkies, biscuit, dinner, bath, car, in, out, kitchen, and their names.

My dog knows, Go to bed, Sit, easy (which means basically if you're handing her food, don't take my fingers off lol she's a bit of a hound when it comes to food) Walk, Get the cat ( that never works out well for her)

He is completely clueless.

He understands his name and "come on" but that's about it.

Our favourite is moving his lead to a different location and asking "wheres your lead" and watch him run to where it is and sit beside it barking

Ours died five years ago but off the top of my head he knew "sit", "lie down", "paw", "stay", "walk(ies)", "who's that?" (Which would set him off barking at the front door) and obviously his name / basic "good boy / bad dog / no / go on then..." stuff too. I miss him. Lovely temperament (he was a lab retriever).

My dogs understand: walkies, din dins, wee wee, sit, paw, stay, biscuit, coffee, tea, here, their names, lie down, bed, cat, leave, drop it, nicely, and come on, my boy does 'roll over' on command, and when i say 'where is it?' they look around as if to say...'i don't know, where is it, and what am i looking for?' i love my dogs

I don't know how to talk to dogs. Even if it's just "sit" or "come here" they literally just stare at me then leave the room.
