Lmao yep. My beagle is good at telling me stuff. He makes dumb little noises and bays when he needs something and if I can’t figure out what he’s telling me, I ask him to show me and he leads me to whatever it is he needs/wants. Took almost a year to get him to that point of communication.
The puppy hasn’t figured it out yet, but she does this weird spinning thing when she has to do her business, and the sound of her feet gives her away if she’s not in my line of sight. Hopefully she learns soon lol. She’s both the smartest and dumbest dog I’ve ever had.
