    Oh DANG!! I should have thought about that before I sent my children out in the world (bless their hearts).

    I should have added "bless his heart" to the post about my stepson, because we southerners know that's a license to say whatever you want about someone! Bless his heart, the good Lord gave him a brain and genitals and only enough blood to operate one at a time!

    Our smartest dog is a schipperke mix. We started spelling things to keep her in the dark, but she's figured that out too. She's just an awesome dog and I'm glad we were at the pound at the right time to get her!

    I also had a dog I had to spell to. Then we started using sign language to him. He figured that out, too. I took my 8 month old puppy to be "snake trained" to watch for rattlesnakes when he's out, and every time he goes out, he's watching for the rattlesnakes whenever he steps outside.

    My parents' dog has learned to spell. Dogs are great at figuring out patterns. Spelling becomes an extension of the actual word.

    My last two dogs trained me very well. The Dog whisperer would be truly disappointed in me. Lots of love there
