Camilla, This is true, although I had not put it in words before - Our toy poodle can certainly understand Bob's commands even though I can not! She is also so aware of body language. And the rare times he has to raise his voice in anger at her - he does! I would like to see ..."the bit on the animal channel about dogs working with Parkinsons patients who had difficulty speaking. They were motivated to vocalize when giving commands to dogs." I wonder if anyone made a video of it? Joy Graham ...................
