In the Eighties we had a Boxer named Dempsey that could talk really well. He could say "Mama" and "I love you." He could say "I want" when he wanted a treat. When we told him he had to take a bath he would crouch down with that defiant Boxer stance, his bottom up in the air and his front legs flat on the floor, and say "NO!"

Boz, our Boxer buddy we have now is a rescue and for months wouldn't even bark. He is very quiet and only cries out when we ask him if he wants to check the mail and does the "Scooby-Doo Huh" sound when I ring the doorbell.

“He could say “I want” when he wanted a treat.”

That’s familiar - the sis’ dog would say the full sentence “I want a hamburger”. The “hamburger” part was stretched out - “hamburrrgerrrr”.

Haven’t heard a dog that could do this yet:
