LOL!!! OMG! that is so cute!
you know, i think they can tell when we are scared. like when you said drop it, you were very scared and serious. so he listened immediately.
i think milu can usually tell when i am scared, because it seems like every time i am nervous about something, about her possibly getting hurt, she is always very obedient in those times and follows her commands 100%.
