Billy posted a great entry on his blog today about pet owners and their ability (or inability) to understand their pets. He went on to list the different sounds our dogs make and what they mean to him.
You can link to his story here.
His post made me laugh out loud, specifically when he writes about Honey’s whines and screams when she sees a squirrel. His list isn’t comprehensive as he doesn’t spend as much time with Homes and Maus as I do, ahem, ahem. But it’s pretty good.
I thought I’d do my own survey. Do you think you can understand your pet?

Not only do I understand my dogs, they understand everything I tell them, and somethings don’t need telling.

I do love reading your blog and about your life with Miles. I feel strongly that people who have a strong connection with their animals can understand each other. I am hopeful of this, because I am moving into the next stage with one of our dogs, which is helping her through the final stage of her life. She was diagnosed with cancer and I am tracking the rest of her life through our own blog http://thelifeoftasha.blogspot.com/ Thank you for sharing your stories, they always bring a smile to me.
