Dear Abby... Pro & Cons! by Abigail Van Buren DEAR ABBY: DO DOGS HAVE A LANGUAGE? The answer is NO! They have "signals," such as a friendly greeting ("yip"), a warning bark, a growl of displeasure, or a whine of begging, but they say nothing intelligible. There are other members of the animal kingdom who communicate with each other, however. The bee does a dance to inform other bees where a flower with nectar is located. Man's closest relatives, apes and monkeys are more articulate. Marmosets have a language that can be tape recorded and when played back can cause them to line up for food. The orangutan stands on the very threshold of human speech. At least 32 words are known in the chimpanzee vocabulary ("whoo whoo whoo"). Gibbons have nine distinct calls, each with a special meaning such as, "Let's get some fruit" and "Stay away from my wife," etc. Vance Packard's "ANIMAL I Q" is my authority. Sincerely, BRUCE D. DEAR ABBY: A friend of mine is a well-known animal trainer and he says that he has traveled all over the world training animals and animals DO talk. He further states that French poohles talk French and German Shepherds talk German and Russian wolfhounds talk Russian. Now, what do you say to that? ELLIS DEAR ELLIS: I say that your friend has been handling you a little Boston Bull. DEAR ABBY: I have been looking for my Bible but I can't find it. I wanted to tell you the chapter and verse where it came from, but please take my word for it. It IS in the Bible. It says in the Bible that God gave man the power to speak and he did not bestow this gift on any other living creature. That should settle the question of whether or not dogs have a language. I thank you. BIBLE STUDENT DEAR ABBY: You wanted to know if dogs had a language of their own? Of course they do! "Shep" has been my companion for nine years, and he says to me very plainly, "HELLO THERE" and others can tell you that they can understand him, too. When Shep talks to other dogs he uses an entirely different language, but I can tell if they are arguing or just talking. When adults learn to bark they will have come a long way.
