I don’t think dogs can understand language...if you take your dog to the park, he or she will jump in the car every time you open the door...if you take your dog to the vet (and never to the park) the dog will not like going in the car.

It may depend on the breed, and the dog. But believe me, if I say, with the same same inflection “Let’s go bye-bye!!!”, he BOLTS, to his leach and the front door and is more than ready to go. If I say instead (or then instead) “Let’s go bye-bye and to the vet!!!” He freaks, and takes a dive under the dining room table, trying in vain to hide. He’s knows exactly what’s going on.
