The maid who is not literate, had been watching me teach Luci (for newbies around, Luci is my 4 month old Labrador pup) to sit, go, fetch, take and such doggy commands. She who herself has a full grown Labrador of her own watched in wonder, then sighed and said resignedly:
“My dog does not know English, Chechi.”
* * * * *
The L & M (for newbies, that is the husband whom I refer to as the Lord & Master) to the stray tom cat that had wandered in and was nonchalantly sharpening its claws on the rolled up carpet:
“Hey! What do you think my home is? A free cat gym?!”

Phoenixritu said:

Phoenixritu said:
Sigh, my dogs dont know any Haryanavi either
shail said:
My dog knows one word of Malayalam right now, “Veno?” (Chahiye/Want) Immediately she sits down expectantly 😉
Shilpa Garg said:

shail said:
Yeah yeah, teach Punjabi too. When I ask Luci ‘Paranja kekkoolle?’ (You won’t listen/obey) she knows something is wrong 😛
Natalie said:
love this one,
did you know? dogs understand many languages, it depends on which country they are in,
in France, they listen to French and do what their owner tells them to do,
shail said:
Of course they do. They learn according to what/how we speak to them. Luci also understands a few Malayalam words. 🙂 But my maid actually thinks, Luci obeys because she knows English! 😉

Smriti said:
Hey, brilliant caption:)
BTW, was this pepper?:) Remember seeing this pic
shail said:
Thank you. This is Nibbles. Yeah I had posted the pic of her clambering up the L & M’s leg 🙂
maverickshree said:
Puppies are cute creatures,good to know she understands your language and whatever you say, very apt caption 🙂
shail said:
Welcome to Shail’s Nest and thank you. Yeah, Luci very well understands, especially the tone. I can ask her ‘Aaru vannu?’ (Who’s there?) in three different tones and it is amazing and funny the way she responds differently to each. For one she barks as if challenging, for the other she backs off scared and if it is the cheerful query she knows her ‘Dad’ is home 😀
Pepper said:
ROTFL! Free cat gym? The L&M does have a great sense of humour.
shail said:
Yeah he has 😉
dodi2all said:
Sad state of affairs this is, the poor dogs get no education at all.. 😛
Loved the post 😀
shail said:
Indeed, no English medium education 😛 Thanks. 🙂
Deeps said:
Lollll! Had a good hearty laugh! And what a caption 😀
shail said:
😀
aborrowedbackpack said:
Oh God!! that one looks like my cat. 😀 😀 I have a similar black and white tomcat.
shail said:
What’s his name? This is Nibbles and she went missing 😦
aborrowedbackpack said:
Mine, by some divine stroke of fortune (or mis-fortune), got named Nightie. 😀
We had named him in jest, when he strayed in to our home and lives one night, thinking that generally cats don’t stay. Once they are done with you, they wander off. Now we have an awesome family member, albeit with a funny name 😀
When he goes for his evening walk and we go looking for him, the neighbors ask us “Tumhari nightie kho gayi kya” (yeah, thats there idea of fun)
