Also mine never could figure out the word "no" so we use an "aaaht" sound or the German slang word for no pronounced "neigh". We also use the German word for sit too since they never got the word sit. Sometimes I wonder if my furbutts only speak German. |

My old horse trainer was Swiss, so we rode horses that "spoke" Swiss/German, It's odd looking at my riding style it's very European, and I occaisionally would find myself saying the few words I knew in Swiss too  . |
off topic but - I just finished reading
Water for Elephants. Have you read it? The elephant only understands commands in Polish and everyone thinks she's stupid till they figure it out. That part is really cute and it's a great book.
