I've mentioned this before, but it amazes me that Cora can understand different languages. We visited with a woman who grew up in Germany, but Spanish was her native language. Cora nestled herself right against her leg and tilted her head back listening intently as our friend softly spoke to her. A little girl sat waiting quietly for her mother, watching as Cora did her tricks. "Perro"! she said pointing towards Cora, who then walked towards her and sat by her side. Japanese was being spoken across the room and believe it or not , Cora "bowed" in front of the man who sat with his family. We spent time with a special lady who grew up in Texas. That's where Cora was born and where we adopted her 5 years ago. Cora enjoyed her company as much as she did Cora's visits. I think she recognized that Texas accent! It all comes down to the ability to listen, no matter what language. You can tell a therapy dog anything and they'll still give you unconditional love while lending an ear! Good girl Cora! |
