UM-Bot Posted March 21, 2003 #1 Share Posted March 21, 2003 If you're wondering why your pooch howls at the moon, growls at the mailman or barks uncontrollably at squirrels, the answer may be only a click away. A Japanese toy maker claims to have developed a gadget that translates dog barks into human language and plans to begin selling the product -- under the name Bowlingual -- in U.S. pet stores, gift shops and retail outlets this summer.

Althalus Posted March 21, 2003 #10 Share Posted March 21, 2003 somehow i don't think it would be very practical to have one, it would be asking to go for walks all the while, then for cat food, they never eat their own. People would get sick of the dog telling them what to do all the while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kismit Posted March 24, 2003 #13 Share Posted March 24, 2003 Lol , I think I would use it in reverse . Perhaps you could yell " go away you Bl*#dy , bleepin , freako nutter " into it and would come out "GRRRRRRR, GRRRRRRRR with that kind of I'm gonna eat you bark " That would be cool Emmy my great big smelly Bullmastiffs do nothing but eat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
