Now she'll just have to learn English LOL
We've joked about that :B She did have a Turkish name (given by the rescue in Turkey and on her passport) that Jan at Love A Golden couldn't pronounce, so she renamed her Sashi. We thought Sasha was close and easier for us.
Right now she doesn't really know her name or commands, but in just 24 hours has responded to NO and come. She also responds to a whistle. She's pretty smart and learns rapidly. I've found dogs to be pretty intuitive and sensitive to tone of voice and body language no matter what language.
When in practice I have dealt with dogs trained in Polish (we have a huge Polish population locally), Spanish and German (police dogs) and they all seemed to be bi-lingual.
