I was thinking about trying something. Instead of talking to our dogs in English I was thinking about just saying "Blah blah blah" to them. The idea was to prove how dumb they are since surely they'll wag their tails and slobber just as much as when they're having actual sentences said to them. Then I realized it would mainly serve to prove how dumb this English speaker has been for using full sentences on them for the last 5 years.
"Blah blah blah, Phollower, Blah blah."

OR, maybe the reason they tilt their heads to us is that we aren't saying, "blah, blah, blah" to them. Maybe dogs are like adults in Charlie Brown cartoons- nothing makes any sense to them.
Well, our dogs have figured out a few words, like biscuit, walk, park, shock collar. You know, the essentials.
Yeah. Our friends have a dog who likes to eat her own crap but only after it's frozen. We refer to it as poopcicles. Once she ate enough of it that she threw it up when she came back in the house. How nasty is that? Vomitted poopcicles.
Baahaha! That is so funny cause as I'm typing this I'm watching Watchers on tv (I'm in a hotel in Whitehorse). Watchers is loosely (very loosely) based on a Dean Koontz novel about a really smart dog who understands what people say.
I think the REALLY smart dogs make it a point to not understand what we say. Or at least ignore it completely. I guess that would make them cats.
