My former mother-in-law had a dog that, when she said "Walk", would run and get his leash first.

I used to work with a guy who taught both his dogs the "Play dead" game, but the command was "Dead dog". He would ask them: "What would you rather be, a bus driver or a dead dog?" Plop.

"What would you rather be, a Mormon or a dead dog?" Plop.

He had lots of fun with people using that one.

Cats aren't domesticated. They just put up with us. I don't know anything about ferrets, but I'm betting they aren't much different. Dogs are pets. Cats are roommates.
