O.K. so after years of prodding from the young lad, I finally relented and got a new puppy. Actually, I got him from the "pound", and I think he maybe full grown. (I can see a lot of Springer Spaniel in him, but he's classified a mutt. ) He was already named Bonneau, so we are going with that. Problem is, he appparently, "doesn't speak English". Since my French is textbook only, I am wondering, can he understand English? This is a stupid topic/question, I know, but he doesn't seem to be responding when we call or talk to him. If I say "Ici, Bonneau", he will happily come, but that's all. Any help, without the obvious "Boy, you are an idiot" responses, would be appreciated.
