I remember when I was young, when the family dog was hungry he'd bring has paper plate in and drop it at my feet, when I was sitting in the dining or livingroom. One day my mother was sitting with me and we teased him by talking to one another... WHAT DOE HE WANT? ... I HAVE NO IDEA... He looked at her and them me and picked the plate up and dropped it on the floor with a firm paw going down on it and, with his throat, he said I WANT!!! ... That was the FIRST time ...
I had a Beagle that I had ESP with all his life, which is how I came to him to begin with. If he barked that he needed something, I'd look out at him or picture him . Somehow, I would understand what he wanted. I'd 'tell' him to stop barking, lay down and I'd bring him whatever it was. He'd stop barking and go lay down.... But the first time I really knew we were doing that was when he was in the yard and got his rope tangled through two bushes. I could see how it was tangled and, pictured him doing it, gave him hand motions as to what to do to get untangled. He stood there fixed on me and then went and untangled the rope. ... Many times after that, this is how we "spoke" to one another, for 13 years.
