    Well, not actual conversation, but phrases she knows like...
    "Ok" or "let's go"- trying to get her to walk faster
    "heel"- usually when around a crowd
    "slow down"- my feet hurt darnnit
    "place"- point at anybody you see
    "who's that?"- getting her to be watchful of somebody nearby
    "aren't you forgetting something"- if she forgets to sit at the corner
    "go see"- means we are stopping at a familiar dog friend's house
    "where"- Autumn's choice which way to go
    "leave it"- eww whatever that is it's dead

    and many many more. Usually I'm going on the whole walk.
    I second this one, I dont have conversations with my dogs, but I am usally talking to them almost the whole time, using the same kind of commands as above.

    i dont walk my dog as often as i should...but at work I ALWAYS talk to the doggies. Its silly but I think they like the sound and tone of the words.
