Whenever i watch dog, sometimes i go into deep though of somethings like dogs talking to each other or communicating with human beings ! how will the world be in such times? do you think dogs will be smarter than human beings as some people do say this even now? it would have been really nice if this was true as many surprises might come to light

I would like to be able to talk to dogs and cats. I hope someday they will develop this technology, so we can have cross-species understanding. I think it will be greatly helpful if our pets can tell us when they are sick or unhappy. I also think it will be useful to us in terms of explaining to them when we are going away and when we will be back. Or if we have to, and I don't like to think about this, find them a new housing situation separate from us.

Talking to dogs is exciting isn't it? one cannot really imagine what all changes might come in every bodies life if dogs start talking and this is beyond imagination and i should say it as fantasy or dreams, but dreams does come true isn't it? so, who know's one day we also might be in for a big surprise on seeing these animals communicate with each other and with us also

I have this theory that dogs communicate through their thoughts to eachother. they use their brainwaves to direct what they want to say to what dogs are around them. I also sometimes try to come up with what kind of voice they would have. I think one of my dogs would have a french accent! I dont think that they will ever be able to actually speak to us. But they dont have higher order functioning so i dont think they will be smarter than us

Well, I hope that dogs never learn to talk because the one advantage dogs have over children is that they don't talk back to you! Dogs do have a body language that humans who understand dogs can read, but I do velieve that if they started talking they very well might take over the world!

Funny and as you said we can also imagine dogs talking back to kids or grown ups and maybe inviting for a fight and all these are big news in future if these things happen isn't it? can we all imagine these things coming true one day? I also agree that dogs do have body language to make each one understand things, but the saying that dogs are smarter will be revealed when they start talking !

Oh it would be wonderful though because then the dogs can really voice out their opinions on their owners and we would also know their point of view, it would be normal I think to watch it. They can be smarter than they are right now.

Dogs are menat to be faithful now, but who know's later on when they also start talking and get to see things as we do and maybe dogs also will get to leave within the 4 walls like us and definitely thinking perspective also will change isn't ti? don't you think so? how can it remain the same, though there might be some dogs which might remain faithful like there are human beings who are really good and very helpful even now

Dogs are the best friends of people, as the saying goes,and if they could talk in human voice it would be even better for us. Besides what we would learn about their world and the way they see us, we would have their better senses help us the way a doctor may tell us what to do or what not to do in a situation. Their smell senses are hundrer times better and stronger than ours so that would place us ahead of where we are, a hundred times. Dogs aren't smarter than people but they don't need to be. They don't face the challenges and the problems we do. They need to find a place to eat and a place to sleep. Nothing more. You remember the Bundy family from the Married with Children series... their dog could talk, and it seemed appropriate how it was only talking in short sentences and saying something that totally didn't matter but was funny. I think they won't talk much but will tell us only what is needed at the moment. It's not like you're gonna go to a bar with your dog and order him a cat cocktail.

There will be lots of interesting things happening around then and there also might appear many interesting dog stories appearing in daily newspapers all over the world.We all pray that this thing happens and hope to see all these live.But once dog starts talking, they also might face challenges and problems like we face in this world as told there will be very interesting things happening around at that time and even dogs have to learn the things fast

Hi there Alien Star! Well, I think that if ever that happens, more people will take care of dogs. People who are loners will appreciate having the company of someone who is very loyal and true to the phrase, "man's best friend". Someone who you wouldn't have to dress up before facing, someone to whom you can tell your secrets to without having to worry that they might tell on you since loyalty is in their nature.

well it might be suprising on what they might say. Oh and there is already a device for this one but i dont know how accurate it is and it is called bowlingual.

Bowlingual is really funny and imagining dogs talking also is funny and if at all the start talking, there might be language learning classes for them also and then this term bowlingual maynot be true later on as we are only used to its barking right now and nothing more than that as later on we can see them laughing also like we all human beings

I love dogs, but I never thought they are smarter than human beings. If dog could communicate with people and people could listen to dogs, world would not be so complicated as it is now. I think the world seen thru dog's eyes is more simply: food, water, rest, play, procreation... There would not be fashion, polution, envy, rasism and so on. But this is only fiction. Speaking about books, I reccomend to all dog lovers Timbuktu

Dogs are also useful to this world and the can also contribute many things if they start talking.May be the will also get dressed up if they start talking and also might go to work like men do and there might be companies willing to take them as employees depending on nature of work they do.It's all fantasy which might come true once who know's as there are changes occurring in this every now and then isn't it?
