Eska is a multi-lingual dog, it's true.
Consider: an actual conversation she and I had earlier today in response to an omelet sandwich I had just made:
me: Aia! Maronna sant', c'est chaud en ostie! You understand what it means? C'est pas mal bon, però ...
Eska: feed me.
Yesteday, however, she demonstrated her love (of)? hatred (for)? fascination (with)? the German language. I had been watching Il divo, a movie she took a distinct disliking to almost immediately, retreating to her hiding place under my desk within the first five minutes of the opening scene. The whole movie is in Italian (obviously), but its musical score comes in a host of linguistic varieties - some Italian, some French, some English.
Eska JUMPED at the German song accompanying the closing credits. She actually jumped. Like, she ran into the living room, walked right up to the TV and started sniffing the speakers to try to figure out what was going on. She didn't stop until the song ended.
I guess Rammstein is off the playlist.

shelby had the EXACT same reaction to a screaming Mary Murphy on So you think you can dance (usa).
ReplyDeleteIt must be because she's part German shepherd. I bet the Alaskan husky part of her would have the same reaction to a sound byte of Sarah Palin speaking...wah wahhhh
