One bit of advanced training I recommend is doing all the things you’ve taught him, and take it to the Seuss level- can he do it on a box, can he do it with a fox (another dog nearby running around), can he do it here and there, can he do it anywhere? IOW, think of as many permutations as you can, and make sure the dog can do it anywhere under any conditions- could you go on Letterman with a crowd in front, bright lights, cameras that roll in, etc?
Have you considered training for a dog sport like agility or freestyle? Youtube has some videos that show lots of different behaviors/skills for these sports.
I also love doing some of the mental work that BCs love so much- playing hot and cold targeting games. If you have a chance to get to a Kathy Sdao seminar- go! I have some vids on youtube of my dog doing some hot and cold targeting

There are also some vids of her skateboarding and doing a handstand, as well as agility.
