But does she remember your name.

It’s “Woof” when you translate it to Dog.

Why does he need to remember her name? He can’t say it.

I have to make a concerted effort to remember names when I first meet people. Doesn’t always work either.

What kind of party would that be?

If she were an introvert, why would she have talked to him/her all night?

The host’s dog/cat is the best company at many (if not most) parties!

Just say “Woof-woof.”

She won’t mind.

That would be me. Either talking to the family pet or the children, rarely ever trying to engage in foolish ‘adult’ banter.

C’mon let’s growl and bite her…

Not to worry. A sniff of the hand, a wag of the tail, and all will be forgiven.
