In my defense, there has been a rash of dog-nappings in the area. Ok, so that's no defense.

I'll come home from a walk and tell Mom that we ran into Bailey, you know, the yellow one, just a year old and so friendly, so excited to say hello to Charlie, who lives in the colonial on Woodside. Dad's like, 'Oh, I didn't know they had another baby!" No, Dad. Bailey's a dog.Betsy Transatlanticallyhttp://www.betsytransatlantically.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442709270787168376.post-2997069181455479402012-10-11T10:52:08.225-04:002012-10-11T10:52:08.225-04:00we talk to Charlie in French, too! but usually it&...we talk to Charlie in French, too! but usually it's French babble - he seems to like to melody of the language :)Betsy Transatlanticallyhttp://www.betsytransatlantically.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442709270787168376.post-42870217430080642932012-10-11T09:05:20.696-04:002012-10-11T09:05:20.696-04:00Love it!

I read in a book about bulldogs that you have to speak to them in nice tones (like speaking to a toddler obvs) and they actually get offended if you don't let them kiss you. I had to acquiesce, so now I'm one of those wet-faced dog-hugging babytalking dog owners I never thought I'd be. <br /><br />She doesn't understand every word, but 'cookie', 'cheese', 'lunch' and 'walk' are among them. We have taken to talking in French around her - "elle mange du fromage?"Gillian Ladleyhttp://twitter.com/gladleynetnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442709270787168376.post-39080676316226789132012-10-11T08:44:51.003-04:002012-10-11T08:44:51.003-04:00This had me laughing (of course)!!

Poo conversations are TOTALLY normal- if Paul or I take out the dogs alone, the first conversation is who pooed, how many times, and if there was any concern in consistency (although with Sloan's IBD it really is a *necessary* conversation, too). Let's see: having complete conversations with your dog and only being mildly embarrassed when you see an entire family of ramblers watching you; fishing questionable items out of slobbery mouths for inspection, even if it's in the middle of a big party at your house; referring to your dogs' friends by name, or at the most by name-breed; calling daycare "school" and hydrotherapy "swimming lessons"... hahahaha! <br />Oh, and Cheerios are most definitely NOT "people food"- think about it: they're really only eaten by the under-five people set; so they should be considered "people-in-training food", which Charlie qualifies under!Gesci Meyernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442709270787168376.post-73392771442822842122012-10-11T08:04:54.971-04:002012-10-11T08:04:54.971-04:00well, Charlie definitely understood BREAKFAST, whi...well, Charlie definitely understood BREAKFAST, which I hollered across the neighborhood after he got distracted while fetching the paper with Dad :)Betsy Transatlanticallyhttp://www.betsytransatlantically.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442709270787168376.post-38549664965484833282012-10-11T07:56:14.316-04:002012-10-11T07:56:14.316-04:00Dogs may not understand every word, but they do un...Dogs may not understand every word, but they do understand that all that talking adds up to one of their three most important words, LOVE, which is right up there with eat and play!Louisenoreply@blogger.com
