A dog's life

A dog's life, but only if you're bilingual :

"David Stephenson, who handles two-year-old Flint from Slovakia, said: 'At first we were telling them to sit and they weren't taking a blind bit of notice.'

Translators were brought in to provide a breakdown of basic words in the canine lexicon to help train the dogs the English way."

Just goes to show...if a dog can learn a foreign language, so can you. Bilingual is beautiful....and multilingual is magnificent.

On another note, I am stunned to find out the Britain cannot provide its own German Shepherds. Why not?? I wish to have a full and detailed explanation of this in triplicate on my desk in the morning at 8am sharp.
