I can tell that Tibbe has your ear, and he is joyously putting in his request in his photo. All we want -- pets and humans -- is to be heard and understood. |
This reminds me when I was potty training Joel, he would do something and I would say "oh, he needs to go potty" and my family would be like "what do you mean? How do you know"
And poor thing, when my sister puppy sits him, he'll have an accident because she doesnt know his language, and she said he looks at his accident sadly, like he was realy trying to tell her, and I just love that he knows I "get him."
