Have you ever wondered if dogs in other countries have the same sounding bark as dogs in the USA have? Of course they sound the same as they do here, however, if you look up barking dogs in different countries you will find that “bow wow” as described here in the States is described differently throughout the world.
Here is a quick look at some of the different ways “Bow Wow” is referred to in various countries…
In the Philippines: Ow-ow
In Poland: Hau-hau
In Germany: Vow-vow
In Italy: Bau-bau
In Sweden: Vov-vov
In Portugal: Ao-ao
In Korea: Mung-mung or Wang-wang
In Japan: Won-won or Kyan-kyan
In England: Arf-arf
In Russia: Gav-gav
In Vietnam: Wau-wau
Sort of gives you something new to think about the next time your dog barks, doesn’t it?

Pick up any newspaper or look on any internet classified ads section and you will find people trying to find a new home for their pet. What you may think is the right thing to do for the animal, offering the pet free to a good home is not a very safe thing to do.
It’s hard to believe, but there are many people out there whose only job is to scour the ads for free pets. Acting as a concerned new pet owner, these people will collect your animal and either use it as bait in a dog-fighting ring, or sell it to a lab for research testing! If your pet is unspayed or neutered, the dog could be gathered up by a puppy mill and used for breeding, living a life of isolation and misery. There are also people out there who only want to get their hands on your pet for abuse and/or torture. It does happen, and it happens every single day!
If you value the life of the animal you are trying to rehome, please ask an adoption fee to help weed out these types of people! Isn’t your pet worth that?

Heidi’s debut as a screen actress in “California Dreaming” is now airing on The Movie Channel. She plays the family dog, “Bounder” and shares the screen with Patricia Richardson, Lea Thompson and Dave Foley. It’s hard to believe that this dog was once a naughty little girl dumped in a kill-shelter, isn’t it? We had fun working together on this project and hope to do it again sometime!
