I swear my darned dog talks back to me. She barks when a neighbor has someone knock on their door. We yell at her to shush and she half growls under her breath. Then she makes like a closed mouth woof, where you barely see her lips move. If we have something she wants, she almost sounds like she is talking. I want to try and catch it on video one of these days. I could be rich having a talking dog. She is a lil stinker for sure, but we love her. She is our family member, so we just laugh when she does her funny sounds.
