I know, right 😁

@charism8 yeah. But it presupposes that dogs can all read English - as in attention dogs.

@capnthommo
Or possibly superfluous to 'grrrr'? 😁
Show threadStoneface VimesMay 19
@charism8 yes. I think they've got the order wrong though. The threat level goes from woof (green) bark (yellow) Grrr (amber). Nobody wants to know about threat level red.

@charism8 That's solid thinking. They also help encourage people to actually read the signs.

@charism8 Over here they'd have to have four sentences. English, french, English dog and french dog.

(edit) Apparently I can't count! But thinking about it figured there would be french and English dogs!

@charism8 This is a classic ... an interview proposing bilingual dogs in Montreal parks - the dogs have to respond to commands in English and French.

Bilingual Dog Bylaw proposed in Montreal

Pat Kelly interviews Councilor Benoit LaDouce about his proposed bylaw that would requires dogs understand commands in English and French in order to be in public spaces.

@charism8 Just in case the joke is too subtle - This is That was a news spoof show.

The highlight of the show is usually the hosts reading irate letters from listeners that thought it was real :-)

@charism8 - I respect Dog owners; However there are the lazy ones that shouldn't own a Dog if they don't pick up after the mess or drop the poo bag on the ground and walk away.

@charism8 lol good one! 🐶 *woof*

What I don’t understand is the dog people who bag their dog poops and leave them on the trail/trailhead as if it’s someone else’s job to dispose them.
