i totally agree.  Part of the argument I am making in the new article is 
that Greek vase painters were close observers of canine body language 
and could "read" dog gestures.  Likewise, on some vases you can see the 
human's gestures as well and note that they are similar to ones we use 
today.

I would be very grateful to the group for any references to training 
animals, not just dogs, to do tricks, in the Greek world.  So something 
on how you train a horse to pull a chariot is not what I am after.  
Textual or artistic renditions are equally useful.
