I was having coffee by the wood stove fire, with our black Labrador, Zinnia, dozing in front of me. I finished the coffee and absentmindedly said out loud to myself: "I've got to get going." Zinnia immediately stood up, grabbed a toy in her mouth, and started wagging her butt vigorously, which she does when she wants to go out.

This dog now speaks English.
