[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 458244, member: 84"] I'm never quite sure if Molly is not a human disguised as a dog. She understands human speech so easily, and always has. She does the toy thing too. She could do it with colors as well as the name of the toy because she had several balls once that were various colors, and to just see if she could.....I started asking her for different colored balls. If I inform her something is a baby (mostly this has to do with baby animals) she'll instantly mother it, watch over it, protect it, and teach it just as she would a puppy. I said usually do this with new baby animals I bring into the home..........and yeah it's really funny to watch her with a turtle by the way..........but she'll do it with an infant too and I don't even tell her to do it. The only grandchild who hasn't learned to walk by holding on to Molly is Evan because he wasn't here. She used to keep Alex out of trouble as a baby by gently lifting him by the diaper and gently pulling him back to where he was put by me. She'd guard over Alex......protect him from bumping himself. Molly also plays soccer, kid you not. She loves to go fishing......and yes, she has her own method to fish and does catch things.......and she loves to go sledding in the winter. lol And Molly is an excellent judge of people. Now she won't let anyone in if we don't tell her. But once we say it's ok, it's ok. BUT if Molly continues to growl low in her throat and maintains a watchful stance....we know something is up with the person she let inside. She was in this mode the whole time M was in the house......once the idiot tried to pet her, she bit him in the *ss. I didn't correct her. I'd just told him she was warning him and to leave her alone. lol Betsy is much smarter than she lets on too. Not quite at the same level as Molly, but she can identify her toys. She's very loving with Aubrey, Brandon and Connor. She hasn't met Oliver yet. Katies kids make her nervous and we've never reached the point where it was safe to let her out of the crate with them here.
