All of our dogs seemto understand alot, but Sadie's vocabulary is frightening. She seems to understand almost anything we say! To move she reponds to, move, excuse me, back up, scootch over, and make room. She knows many people by name, and will go "grandma" , "grandpa" etc.

About 2 years ago we were going on vacation ( we only had Sadie at the time). Ralph sat her down and said "Sadie, Mommy and Daddy are going away, but unfortunatly you can't come." She jumped up and pushed him in the chest. Then he said, "but you are going to stay at Aunt Monica's with Max and Milo" She ran to
the window to look for them, and all was okay
