Don't laugh but my hubby thinks I'm crazy! Seriously!!! Tensley is smart. Super smart! So much so he is more human than dog. (Shhhh, don't tell Tensley he's actually a D O G)! LOL! Anyway, I'll talk to him like I would any other human being. Tensley listens attentively. Then he responds. Yeah! He actually responds! While, of course, it's in dog speak, I truly believe if his words could be translated to human you'd hear a comprehensive answer. Today, laying in bed, I asked Tensley if he wanted to play peek a boo. We've NEVER played it before. He immediately buried his head in the covers then slowly peeked his head out. He continued to do this until I did it. He got so excited playing this. But how he knew what this game was has me questioning. He also started barking in his high pitched voice. I looked at him and asked if it was "necessary" for him to be so loud because it was giving me a headache. Immediately he started mumbling in a very soft voice and came to snuggle (like he was saying he was sorry). I swear! I'm not crazy. These little guys are more human than anything. Don't you think???
