SIT, Goddamnit!!
I don't think there is a better visual representation out there of how I feel when I play this "game." I've had to unlearn learned tricks multiple times because somehow "lie down" or "roll over" or "wag" end up all becoming "shake" to Chloe the moronic german shepard. She seems to be getting a little better, but I have to go out of my way to make commands sound off-the-wall different... like "spin," for example... so she doesn't give me her paw or sit, I just taught her it as "three sixty." Seems to work well enough that way.
I dunno how much time I'll be spending with Chloe, though, as I've just traded in my PSP and picked up Advance Wars: Dual Strike. So awesome so far. Intelligent Systems rules.
