When they hear, "the answer is 'yes'" they go nutso with excitement, regardless what we are about to do, and a Yorkie is 'assigned' to watch each human. They also know "the answer is 'no'" and "not this time" but it doesn't make them happy at all to hear it. They 'consult' with the other parent, hoping for a different answer, and are not shy about trying to negotiate a better answer with cute puppy eyes and tilty heads.

Hahaha. Mine can spell too! We've taken to spelling in Spanish! Hahahaha
