So, on the “my puppy is smarter than your puppy” front, so far, we have managed:
1. housebroken (check)
2. not jumping (or humping) everyone in the elevator (check)
3. sitting, staying, coming when called, playing actual fetch where he releases the toy/ball so I can throw it again (check)
4. pooping pellets of styrofoam (source completely unknown)
(um, check)
(sigh)
