Bizarre? Perhaps............
Have you ever thought about the fact that dogs from other countries don't understand English? It's bizarre don't you think? A French poodle living in Chicago understands English; but an English bulldog living in Paris understands French. I find that fascinating. I wonder how you say Sit or Stay to an Australian Shepard who lives in Tokyo. Or tell a German Shepard who lives in Rio to roll over if you don't know Portuguese? How cool would it be to have a bilingual dog? Here's my Russian Wolfhound and he understands Shake in 6 different languages. But that poor Chinese Pug over there only understands Shake in 3 languages. He's not so talented I guess. Here's a thought......do Mexican Chihuahua's speak Castilian Spanish? I would think not...unless they are well traveled. I find this entire subject extraordinary.....but probably no more so than you find me crazy. Perhaps I should stop now......yes, I think I will.
