Just to show how effective this communication is, I was looking at the
differences between the signs, practicing both of them. My dog,
Buster, saw me practicing and came over - he thought I was calling him
to me. :-)<br>
<br>
In his opinion, they both work. <br>

Hello SW List, Stefan, Adam and Nana!
<br>
I bet there are many ways to write the sign for DOG, and I hope others
<br>
will post their versions too...
<br>
<br>
And Nana...you wrote that really well! In the attached diagram, yours
<br>
is the first one to the left. To the right, I placed the same sign
<br>
written in our ASL dictionary...It seems we have the same sign for DOG?
<br>
<br>
Although your handshape finishes a little differently perhaps?
