the bark of a dog

Wow. That's interesting. I honestly never thought about that. I wonder what word people use in other countries. I really like wan wan and I think I might use that sometime, lol. I've heard bark bark and woof woof, but I've only heard of bow wow from children. That's another thing you could classify, the age groups. Children seem to used woof woof and bow wow more often. And adult bark bark and woof woof. I'm not sure about the elderly. They might have their own word, lol.

I have watched and heard people talking about the dogs barking. Sometimes it funny when they try to explane this. They make a face like it hurts to do this and when they make the sound like the dogs make. It does not sound anything like a dog. LOL

I think it depends on the kind of dog, but with me it's generally either a bark, a yap or a woof woof. 'Woof woof' is used primarily around two year old nephew, my springer spaniel had a proper manly bark and 'yap' is reserved for whatever that thing is that lives next door to my mom. It's like a giant rat only far less cute.
