When I'm out in the back yard with the dogs I am steady talking to them which includes asking them questions, for instance "Are you ready to go in yet? Did you go potty? Where did you make the stinkies? Don't you want to go chase the kong with Hannah, Tucker?" Now we live in a quiet neighborhood and so the sound of a voice can be heard by the neighbors if they happen to have a window open or are outside themselves. I wonder if they ever think I have completely lost my marbles.
