| Not sure if we are going yet or not. We had an exhausting day today. Frankie and I attended a grief camp for children with the TD group and then I worked at the barn the rest of the afternoon. We have been on the go since 6 am and Frankie worked hard today (you know it's tough letting a bunch of kids love on you for a few hours).
Now I feel like I'm getting sick. So it all depends if I can get my a$$ out of bed tomorrow. I just pumped in a bunch of vitamin c so hopefully it works.
You don't sound like a dork. It made me laugh because I have done that way too many times. |

| lol! Mya, what the hell is that noise?! Aevyn was napping when I put those videos on, he instantly perked up, looked at the computer oddly, then huffed and curled up again. He's not too impressed with Mya's abilities, apparently.  Still much better then he ever does. At least she makes noise. lol |

| Hope you're feeling better Dee!
Karen, lol. Mya's a whiner, but today she's actually giving a good bark when I tell her to speak. So cute! Kody...still looking at me like I have issues, BUT he sure gave everybody a piece of his mind leaving the water park meet up today..lol. |

| Aevyn starting to catch on, but he'll only do it when I'm holding a treat. Otherwise he just lays down and looks grumpy.
Now, when he was learning how to sit/paw/down the whole bit - he didn't need a treat every time for him to do it. Why is speak being so complicated? |

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I'm proud that my dog is starting to not be so...well. Silent. And stubborn.
He sneezes like. All the time though. Whats with that? I dont know if he thinkgs 'speak' means 'sneeze' but... yeash! Everytime!

| awww, that's adorable! That's how Mya started with the "speak". Just keep saying speak and wooo/woof your a$$ off and he'll do it. At least Mya did. Kody, as vocal as he is, still has NO CLUE  |

| Aevyn's getting to the point where he doesn't always need a treat to do it, and I don't need to sound like a freak myself (most of the time).
But he does sneeze a lot. And sometimes he'll just move his head like he is GOING to make a noise, but wont make any. So either he's confused or... well. Who knows. lol |

It took me the longest time to teach speak and he still only does it if he feels like it
