Meet Dexter! He turned 1 this past September.
D-dog is the reason I don’t get more work done. He’s an Italian black lab…ok,he’s actually an English black lab that knows Italian. He knows the following Italian words/phrases.
prendi il guinzaglio
siediti
fai il bravo
and of course
vuoi mangiare? (it seems to be his favorite for some reason.????) Another reason I know he’s Italian? He ate this box of pasta when he was just a few months old…if that’s not a clue,I don’t know what is!  Leave a Reply | Heading to Calabria?

Ohh Dexter is so sweet! Of course he understands “vuoi mangiare”! I’ve been reading your posts and enjoy your writing.
I’ll get blogging again soon and tell you all about our BIG move over the Atlantic and how we’re adjusting to the American way of life after so long in Europe.
Thnaks Coleen. I look forward to reading your new posts. –Cheers Joe
Dexter is adorable. Gotta love black labs!
