Information on translating your dog's bark    

 

As seen on:

 

Dog Translator is a one page site focused on the product that was produced by Takara named Bowlingual.  Hype and marketing sold several of these gadgets at $120.00.  Was it worth it? ... we're not so sure.  :-)


 

Let's take a look at the buzz this product generated:

 

Time Magazine 2002 Best Inventions (Transit & Talk)

Wonder what your dog is really thinking? Japanese toymaker Takara claims it can get you...


 

 
 

CNN - Dog translation device coming to U.S.

Want to know what your Spot is talking about? A new device may provide an indication.


 
 

Oprah Magazine - For Your Pets

For those of us who are a little nutty when it comes to our dogs:
A wireless mike on his collar beams his every yip, bark, snarl, and whine to the handheld box.


 

 

 

A prime example of a news outlet or entertainment entity wanting to create a story
over giving us the facts, watch this video:

VideoJug - Life Explained. On Film.  One of our favorite sites.

 


 

We like what Wikipedia classifies the Dog Translator device as:

"The device is billed as a "translator" but it might more precisely be called an emotion analyzer. It is said to use technology to categorize dog barks into one of six standardized emotional categories. Then, for fun, Bowlingual also provides an often humorous phrase representative of that emotion. But the product package clearly notes that the phrases "are for entertainment purposes only" and it seems that they are not meant to be true translations of each bark."
 - Read the entire article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BowLingual

 

Our final assessment is that you can't really argue with the VideoJug video.  If the emotion gauge can be found to be accurate we'd highly recommend this product.  If it's found not to be accurate perhaps that's why you can no longer find the Bow-Lingual website or this product available to buy.

Please let us know your success or non success with this product or to request more information:

To your better dog communications and may the future bring us a Bowlingual 2.0 or some pet telepathy.
We will secure this device and let you know as soon as it becomes available.  :-)
