Or the "Bowlingual" according to the manufacturer. That's
right folks. For a mere 12,800 yen (that's about $100) you
can finally hear in plain speech exactly what your dog is
thinking. That's the claim of Takara Company. Their canine
translator deciphers growls and yelps into six feelings:
frustration, alarm, self-expression, happiness, sadness
and desire. Words pop up on the device display, such as,
"I can't stand it," or "How boring." Bowlingual also comes
with a handy finger-size microphone that attaches to the
dog's collar.
[That's exactly what everyone needs. A pet that talks back
to them. I think I could come up with a few more appropriate
phrases.]
We long for an affection altogether ignorant of our faults. Heaven has accorded this to us in the uncritical canine attachment.
