We think they can't understand us. It's usually the same voice you use when talking to a disabled person. e

We talk to pets like we talk to baby humans and researchers have discovered that the higher pitch and sing-song intonation instinctively used with babes actually helps them distinguish the indiividual words and makes it easier to learn human speech.

The same reason we talk to babies in high-pitched voices.

Ah. You mean the same voice with which we speak to our adored children? Snooky-ooky-ums? God knows. We do it though, don't we? (I think it's probably affection, expressed in a rather odd ((and embarassing!)) way.....) }:> For Junto American: Really? I didn't know that. Thanks, I don't feel quite so idiotic....

My dog is dumb, she only gets the deep, "you're in trouble" voice.
