Just a thought – DM remember Mimi can't understand the men speaking. It makes it quite hard to arrange subtle things like competitions. She knows no French at all apart from a very small number of single word commands. She knows some English but not enough to work out complex sentences and she usually responds to her masters following their tone of voice and gesticulated commands, eyes, body language, etc.<br/><br/>Sorry if it’s a pain but I wanted to introduce a language barrier into this game because a) I've never seen anyone make the effort of doing so before and I thought it would be interesting to try it and b) so that it might produce some interesting play, particularly if the girls can communicate in Japanese which the men don't know and the men in French which neither puppy knows. I know you just put tons of effort into your last post and I hate wasting my co-writer's efforts like that. What do you think we could do?
