We train our dogs on verbal and hand signals at the same time; many of our older dogs became deaf/hard-of-hearing. And we've adopted several deaf dogs, so it's good to have consistent signals across dogs. And it's fun!

The weather is definitely autumnal. AC has been off for a while and tonight it's going down to 49F. Good sleeping weather. I keep the window open at least a crack until snow comes in. Guess that must be my mostly cold-weather country heritage. My wee bit of East African is shaking her head.🌡️
