A tanslator to understand your dog

Hello kids! Are you sure you understand your dog? What is your dog trying to tell you? Sometimes it's hard to understand dogs because they speak using body language. So type a word into the canine translator to see what the dog is trying to tell you.

You can try with moods and feelings like:
good, bad, happy, sad, unhappy, amazing, hot, cold, wet, hungry, thirsty, clever, tired, intelligent, beautiful, bored, miserable, stupid, silly, crazy, in love, romantic, ecstatic, dead, great, dirty, sweet, cool, lost, cute, angry, confused, disturbed, embarrassed, fierce, foolish, frightened, important, lonely, tense, worried...
