A client of mine was telling me about how her family is watching her grandmother's dog while she is on vacation. Here is the gist of that conversation.
Client: We got a new puppy!
Me: You did, what kind?
Client: Well, it's my grandma's dog, Sophie and we're watching her while is going on vacation somewhere.
Me: Oh ok. That's nice that Po (her dog) has another dog to play with for awhile.
Client: Yeah, but my dad doesn't like Sophie, because she shakes (she's a chihuahua), and barks. Ugh, my dad. I told him to stop being racist!!
Me (chuckling to myself): I don't think you mean racist. Racist refers to people, not dogs.
Client: Oh, like the color of someone's skin?
Me: Yes, something like that.
Client: Oh.....
Glad we cleared that up. If you didn't guess it already, one of her goals is on word finding.
