Hmm...my pupper can do all those, except balance beam (never tried that!). He also does "spin" and "spin the other way" (turning in place). "Pretty Boy" (Beg while sitting), "Off" (get off an item/furniture), "Come Through" (Do a figure 8 through my legs), "Wrap" (Go all the way around both of my legs), "Back out" (move backwards without turning (he doesn't like this one, and will bark and fuss!)) Maybe I should try out for that, too.

That is a great idea. They have multiple title levels so you can possible get more than one title. Crokell knows almost all the ones on Novice tricks, a good amount on the intermediate. There some advanced / performance dog tricks as well. However, we are just now getting items recorded to evaluation.

Details here for general Info.

Here for how the tricks are evaluated which tell you that you need to record with the dog doing the tricks twice in one video.
