I'm newer to the board here and was reading these posts. Being I didn't see anybody respond to you I like to add besides hearing to sounds such as door, bells, alarms, people. You may want to teach your dog to alert to dropped items. Sometimes something drops and one doesn't realize it dropped because of walking away. I mention alert because some dogs will just auto pick up and that could be dangerous to them. So alerting first and then tell them to pick up if it's feasable! Just a thought.
