doggy talk

[mcobbin]

o.k.....this weekend, my future sister in law and her husband came to stay for the weekend and brought their two dogs, a german shepard/husky mix and a sort of terrier mix. knowing that my precious wanker is just not socialized well to strange dogs, i knew that it was in his and the other dogs' best interest to board him in the kennel at his vets. they have a large yard to play in, and they are walked three times a day, with a special "fetch" time. he loves it there, but i swear i cried myself to sleep that night :cry: i just kept thinking of him laying there wondering if i was coming back, why i left him there.....you know!!

anyway, we got him back the next day and of course the obligatory puppy talk ensued...so, now my fiance wants to know if we're the only people in the world that have this sort of "speaking-to-myslef-for-my-dog" language. i assured him it's just a dog lover thing, and we're not alone...he needs proof.....so, if anyone is willing, give us an example of how your dog talks...and you KNOW what i'm talking about!!! :o

Here's an example of how "Wanker" talks to us:

"Mom, seeweeuswee! My need my monkeyball, mane! And mane, is we goin' a na powk soon? my needs ta wun mom, i mean my need ta wun wike da win!!! An how about some more fwossy paws mom! My wuv dem fings!! And while we on na sub-djek, when was da wast time we went ta na store a get TOYS???"

note- for those who are confused:
seeweeuswee - AKA seriously
Powk - AKA the PARK
fwossy paws - AKA Frosty Paws, a doggy ice cream
Monkey ball - his favorite toy that sounds like a mad monkey when he bites it.

Hi Mcobbin,

You are not alone, we talk for our dogs all the time! My hubby or I will interpret their looks and posturing and say what they would be saying if they could.

Val prancing with her ball--hey hey, look at me people....I am beooootiful and must be played with now.....Oh come on don't wait you know you wanna.....don't make me throw this ball at you.....I'll do it, don't think I won't....OK, don't make me come over there

Val begging for a treat--Mom, Mom, look at me (as she sits, downs, fronts and flips to the heel position rapidly and repeatedly) See what a good girl I am? You're not saying anything so I don't know which command will get me that treat quicker so I will run through them all as quickly as possible so you can see how much smarter I am than Lily or that D#med cat! Just because you always treat Lily then me....means nothing....this COULD be the time you forget!

Lily running to the sound of her boy (my son) playing with Val--Allright you two break it up.....you are too blessed loud and it will not be tolerated.....I can't sleep with all this racket....now give me the toy and go sit down....both you....don't argue or I WILL get Mama.

Lily and Val waiting at the door--Are you people blind? We must potty now.....Good Lord :roll: .....NOTHING you are currently doing could be more important than our bladders.....GET UP!

Val to the cat-- :mad: Get the hell off by bed! Oh you short little freak, get off my pillow! Oh my lord, are you running around the house like your tail is on fire....AGAIN.....Oh wait that looks like fun, I will chase you..... :o UH OH, there is Lily.....Sagwa made me do it Lily so don't look at me like that....ok, I'll go get in my bed now.

From this you can discern several things. #1. Lily is so the boss of the 4-legged critters #2 We are not creative and so our dogs kinda sound like us :oops: #3 We are raving lunatics :lol:

Later,
Trinity

:lol: Yep, me too, but Gracie thinks I'm nuts! She just stares and blinks. What gets her going (for whatever reason) is stomping your feet or calling softly "Grrracie, Grrracie"...both things will make her burn circles (laps) around you.

LOL I am pleased to know there are other loonies on here :lol:

If BK could talk he would be Bart Simpson, or some other smart alec. ;)
"Don't expect ME to go and get the ball, I've just had a bath."
"Do ya think I'm sexy if I stretch- like this?" *sticks bottom up in air and looks round at me*
"Why can't I pee on your flowers? They're ugly and they smell!"
"Toilet water tastes good, don't shut the lid."
"I'm so cute, every car will stop for me if I go on the road."
"I didn't escape Mum, I was getting to know the neighbourhood."
"I'm huuuuungry."
"I'm tiiiiiiiired."
"I'm boooooored."
"You're sitting on MY couch!!!"

ha ha ha ha ha :lol: !!!

now i can show this to jeremy!! he he he...Trinity...Oh MY Goodness!! i thought i was going to die laughing when you were talking about how yours goes through ALL the tricks really quickly when treats are at stake....wanker will sit, lay, roll, sit up and high-five us all in five seconds if there's a scooby snak involved!!

and the part about the cat! he he...wanker has learned that when we make the sssssk! sound, "sissy" is in trouble, and he runs over to her and bumps her with his nose....don't THINK we don't talk for him then......."sissy, oo betta sop it, sop it wite now, a-fore mom an dad gets oo!! My doin' this for ooo own good!!"
