I have it on good authority that dogs speak some form of double-English,
although whether <Am.E> or <Br.E> remains moot: the following is
a transcription of a conversation between an experimental canine
linguist and his subject --
L: Describe the surface of a sheet of sandpaper.
S: Rough, rough.
L: What is the upper surface of a building called?
S: Roof, roof.
L: Who was the finest baseball pitcher this century?
S: Ruth, ruth.
L: From which species are you most recently descended?
S: Wolf, wolf.
As to equines, mine appears able to disobey commands no matter
in which language they are expressed.
