Hello! This is Rodger Morales, and I have something more to share with you. As you may know, every word on this website is and has always been of my composition. Nothing is or has ever been plagiarized! Well, today, I have something, I find to be fascinating, but not unexpected, at least to me, to share with you! Brinka is now 11 1/2 years old. She's a great, great grandmother to some of La Terra Dios' puppies and as spry and healthy as any three years old could be. Brinka decided shortly after we obtained her, way back in 2004 (as a very young puppy), that I was going to be her "special" human and we became, and still are, "tighter" than butter on bread. As you may know, Joyce and I divorced some time ago (still the best of friends), sold the ranch, and moved in separate directions. Brinka and I traveled the western half of the U. S. for a couple of years and are now living in Arizona. The thing I would like to share with you is I believe I may have the only Westie who has ever been taught to spell! Brinka, as with most dogs, showed thousands of times that she understood many of the words we use in everyday life and as I have always said and felt, most dogs understand much more than the general public gives them credit for. It has always been my contention that, most likely, after a dog has been in a good home for some years, they probably understand somewhere in the neighborhood of 20-30% of our general conversations, even to the point of understanding many sentences. They may not perceive all our thoughts and the implications but, I truly believe they understand most of what we say to each other and what the general idea may mean to their home and family's (the pack's) security and well-being. With all this spinning through my mind for years, one day, a couple of months ago, I decided to see if Brinka could comprehend spelled words. The process took awhile, as it does with any new training (the same as it is when teaching a human child) which consisted of no-faltering training with daily repetition. By the end of the first week, Brinka was responding quite well to the spelled word, "dinner." We worked on that one word (dinner) constantly, using the spelled word in place of the said word, for about three weeks. Now, the spelled word (dinner) became commonplace to her for feeding time. Brinka is on breakfast, lunch, and dinner feeding schedule so, the next step in her spelling education was to have her understand what the letters l--u--n--c--h means, the meal she eats at noon. As at the beginning of her education, the letters d--i--n--n--e--r means evening food, she now would have to understand l--u--n--c--h means her noon feeding. Again, this took awhile but, she started to get the hang of it after about 3-4 days. Within about 8 to 10 days, she had it down! I'm not positively sure she knows that l--u--n--c--h is the feeding time at noon and d--i--n--n--e--r is in the evening meal but, one thing is for sure, she knows both mean FOOD! She and I have been using those two "spelled-out" words now for about a month or more s---o---o, the next thing in her spelling education will be to work on the words t--r--u--c--k, h--o--u--s--e, and w--a--l--k. Mind you, now that she knows the spelled words dinner and lunch, I have tried to fool her, many times, by singing the letters, spelling them slowly, saying one letter in a high pitched voice and the next in a very low voice, saying letters in a very soft/quiet voice, spelling the letters (dinner) within a sentence where it didn't belong and guess what? Most of the time, she picks out the spelled letters (d-i-n-n-e-r) from the general conversation sentence. Joyce and I always said Brinka was where most of the brain power came from in our La Terra Dios puppies and we felt all our pups sported brain power of/somewhere equal to that of 120 on the human I.Q. scale! As time goes on and Brinka's spelling manifests itself, I'll come back with updates concerning her progress. Thank you for visiting La Terra Dios.com. From the very first day I began developing this website, I have strived to create a dog website like no other I know of. This is a site to learn all sorts of things about all types of dogs, enjoy hundreds of beautiful Westie photos and videos, learn our method of puppy/dog training, enlighten yourself concerning many medical issues, learn about many things/plants that are poisonous to dogs, and much more. The advertising of La Terra Dios Westies dogs and puppies was surely one of the reasons for this website but, it was only one portion of the reason for it's creation. I'm extremely proud of receiving a website award presented by: Dog-Behavior-Training.co.uk for the content I have built into it! You can find this award by scrolling down the Home Page, about half-way. Just a note: I began developing this website very early in 2007 and still to this day, it receives hundreds/thousands "hits" per day! During this day, 1/19/16, from 12:01 am until 4:20 pm, our site has received over 9,700 hits! There have been many days (during a 24 hour period) we have received over 14,000 "hits"! Thank you for caring about your dogs and taking the time to learn many things that will surely make your and your dog's life better. Thank you, Rodger Morales
