Ben does a pirate growl to tell Syau it's time to walk. And, she responds the same. I can't pirate growl or anything growl. I sound more like I'm trying to discharge a piece of cookie lodged in my throat. Syau looks at me with great pity when I'm doing my best to imitate a pirate! And, on the same subject, her nickname is Pirate Princess. Why? Because she is definitely a princess and she growls like a pirate, of course!
