Mr. Sparks: It was a great day
for Hero Training,

were working hard,

they had their ups...

Oh, thanks, Sara.

- [shouting] Benny,
is everything all right?
- What's going on?
- [quietly] You have to see.
It's in there somewhere.

It's good to be careful
around dogs you don't know.
But I can tell
this is a friendly dog.
- How do you know,
Mr. Sparks?
- It's telling us
with its tail.
When a dog lifts up its tail
and wags it back and forth,
it's letting us know
that it is friendly.
- He's using his tail
to tell us that?
Without words?
- Exactamenté!
Don't people sometimes
tell each other things
without words?
- Hmm.
Yes!
Benny did just a minute ago!
He went like this--
That means "Shh. Quiet."
- Yeah, and then he did this--
That means "come over here."
- Sí.
And right now
the doggie's tail
is telling us:
"I want to be friends!"
- I didn't know a tail
could talk like that.
- An animal's tail can do
many wonderful things!
