Mostly food related,  Beans. Cookies, of course. Sopapilla. TaterTots she heads for the car. (we've only do that once or twice a year and se still remembers) Outside for sure! PeeWee , she'll even squat if she doesn't have to go. Cat! Demons (reflections on the wall) I'm sure there are more.....truck, and of course Jack!!! her doggy buddy she runs to the fence to harass. Dinner means time for me to cook dinner so she runs to the kitchen and starts barking. If we are not eating at night, she'll head to the kitchen at the appropriate time and start barking anyway. |
| My male, Ralph, Knows NO! very well. He's 9 weeks old. Unfortunately, his sister, Sam, hears that word so often she thinks her name is NO!. Both named from Ralph and Sam cartoon fame |
| LOL! first words my niece learned were, "No Zeno no." Zeno was their standard poodle. |
Besides all the basic commands my dogs absolutely know the word "cookie". Often when they are ignoring me and using their selective hearing  when they are chasing deer or romping about the yard I can always get them to come back when I yell out "who wants a cookie" and then the race is on to se who will get into the house and next to the cookie jar the fastest. My 3 year old sheepie knows the word "paper". Every morning it is his job to run down the driveway and bring in the newspaper for his morning treat. The 10 month old, now realizing a cookie is involved in the process, will wait for him at the door and then try to grab the paper from Beau so he would get the cookie....what a brat!! The fun part is watching Beau struggle bringing in the Washington Post Sunday paper with all the advertisements and comics. He can't open his mouth wide enough so he drops it a few times and then Gunner tries to steal it away and the entertainment for the morning is on. More often then not, by the time they are both done trying to bring in the paper, I usually  have to hold together parts of the paper so I can read what is left of an article. Other fun words that create more comedy is when I ask "who wants to go for a ride?" at which point they run for the door trying to both get out at the same time causing one of then to topple over and then the fight to see who can get to the car first and who gets the front seat. I have already had the Mexican standoff when Gunner got into the front seat and Beau tried to squeeze in next to him. Beau, being a stubborn sheepie would not move and would just stand there half in and half out of the car until I have to get Gunner out and put him in is designated back seat (after all Beau was here first and claimed the front seat 3 years ago). I have a hard time with the word "NO". I couldn't figure out why Beau would wag is stubby tail frantically when I would yell out NO when he was a puppy.....DUH.....Beau and No rhyme so I had to come up with another word for correction. Now when I instinctively yell "no" at Gunner whenever he is chewing and snacking on the tassels of the Oriental rug or trying to steal food off the counter top, Beau comes running wagging his tail....  Makes life entertaining to say the least. |
| I get lots of head cocking and lip licking to celery, carrots and bones especially from my greedy monster Buster. If Monty is bugging us and barking I say "go see" and he will immediately go fast skidding speed and look out of the window, wiggling his tail. It is a great way to distract him, and I shouldn't be amused by it but I can't help myself, repeating this a few times. |
