Just an FYI, you want to use 'sql-dump' now.

drush: Warning: The command name "sql dump" is deprecated. Please use a recommended form instead (sql-dump). [warning] You may enable spaces in commands for a while by setting "allow-spaces-in-commands" in your drush configuration file. See [error] example.drushrc.php.
