How may words does your pet understand?

The dog I have now is probably the smartest dog I ever had but I bet he only understands 15 to 20 words. Doesn't seem like enough words considering how well we communicate. Cheers!

    Too many.  Sometimes we have to whisper or spell words out so she won't understand.

  • My cat knows 'no,' and she hates it.  She gets off the table or counter or whatever, but then she hisses at you and won't be your friend for 5 minutes or so.
