As black Labradors go, "Sophie" is a big one at 120 lbs. Not fat, just big. I'm six feet and she can put her paws on my shoulders and we dance.
She came to me by my son, who was walking along the railroad tracks one day, and found her, with two siblings and their mother. The mother and siblings had been killed by the train but Sophie made it and rode home in the pocket of my son's army field jacket. That's a true story.
Of course this must have been traumatic and may have had some bearing on her disability.
Everyone always comments with things like, "Gee, she's a smart dog," or "Your dog is so smart," or "That's the smartest dog I've ever seen," etc.
The problem is, she's almost four years old and she still moves her lips when she reads. How can I correct this?
