Training language other than English

[tailhold]

Does anyone train there Dogs in another language other than English?
I have been training my pup in Irish Gaelic for commands. It's getting easier after a couple of month's as we are all learning it at the same time, the whole family, and it is so funny to watch my 2 year old Daughter telling Seastnan
Nì hea (sounds like knee ha ) which means no, as he is licking her upside the head. Anyway he is almost 6 months old and seems to catch on really fast.

I suppose, consistency is key.

Do you speak Irish on a regular basis?

My mom taught our first dog to do commands in Lithuanian as well as English.

Do you speak Irish on a regular basis?

Yes it is. I find myself taking time to remember to use Irish for the commands that I only want him responding to in Irish.
And no, But I find myself using it more and more and learning more phrases, I will probably never become fluent in Irish but it is fun.

My mom taught our first dog to do commands in Lithuanian as well as English.

That is cool. I got the idea from my Mother's Grandfather who taught his dog in danish, he spoke 7 languages.

I am looking into getting myself a Pyrenean Mastiff. They originated from the northern parts of Spain, so I figured.....I know how to speak Spanish, the dog originated from Spain...how cool would it be to teach him in Spanish?

Yes, I am pretty excited about that.
