I used to love it when we'd cook a steak for my brother's Rottweiler and then tell him to sit. He'd sit and wait and wouldn't eat it, but he'd be salivating and drooling all over while he was sitting. Another favorite thing was to tell him to sit while at a park and then walk back to the car while he just sat there a 1/4 mile away. He wouldn't do anything else in either situation until you gave the OK. Great dog. I'm pretty sure he thought he was a person and used to sit down on the couch with his butt on the seat just like the rest of us.
