狗的叫声和它们要表达的意思
Dogs make a lot of sounds. From howling and growling to whining and crying, a lot of different noises come out of those slobbery mouths.
狗会发出很多声音。从嚎叫、咆哮到呜咽和哭泣，这些流着口水的嘴巴里发出了许多不同的声音。
Some dogs tend to be more talkative than others. VetStreet compiled a list of the chattiest dog breeds in a survey of more than 250 veterinary professionals. They found that beagles, Siberian huskies, Schnauzers, Chihuahuas and Yorkshire terriers tend to have the most to say. Other talkative breeds include Jack Russell terriers, basset hounds, German shepherds, dachshunds and, well, pretty much all terriers.
有一些狗比别的狗更健谈。维特斯里特对250多位宠物医生开展了调研，列举了最健谈的狗品种。她们发觉，小猎犬、西西伯利亚金毛、雪纳瑞、吉娃娃和约克夏梗狗最有话语权。别的会讲话的种类包含杰克罗素梗、巴盛福猎狗、德国牧羊犬、腊肠犬，也有几乎任何的梗类犬。
Some breeds also tend to have certain distinctive sounds, according to the American Kennel Club (AKC). Rottweilers "purr," Siberian Huskies "talk," Shiba Inus "scream" and Basenjis "yodel" instead of barking, the organization says.
根据美国养犬俱乐部(AKC)的说法，有些品种也有一些独特的声音。该组织称，罗特韦尔犬(Rottweilers)会咕噜咕噜叫，西伯利亚哈士奇(Siberian Huskies)会说话，Shiba Inus会尖叫，Basenjis会叫yodel，而不是吠叫。
But in general, there are a handful of sounds most dogs make to communicate with other dogs and with people. This is how they vocalize their needs, frustrations, fears and pleasures.
但总体来说，大部分狗会发出一些响声来与别的狗和人交流。这就是她们表示自身的要求、挫败、害怕和开心的方法。

Why do dogs bark? The answer obviously depends on the circumstances. Your dog could be alerting you to danger or just showing you how happy he is that you're home. A bark can indicate joy or fear, anger or awareness, frustration or need, according to the AKC. The key to understanding the bark is context and, of course, knowing your dog.
狗怎么会叫?回答显而易见在于详细情况。你的狗很有可能是在提示您有风险，或是就是在向你展现你在家里它是多么的开心。依据AKC的观点，吠声可以表明愉悦或害怕、恼怒或观念、消沉或必须。了解狗叫声的关键是情境，自然，还需要掌握你的狗。
Barks sound different depending on their purpose and what triggers them.
吠声听起来不一样，在于他们的意义和开启他们的缘故。
A dog that is upset because of separation anxiety, for example, might have a high-pitched, repetitive bark that gets higher as the dog gets more anxious and upset, says Whole Dog Journal. Boredom barking, on the other hand, is more monotone and repetitive. An alert bark is usually sharp and staccato, while an alarm bark is similar with more intensity.
例如，《Whole dog Journal》说，一只因分离焦虑而心烦意乱的狗，可能会发出一种高音、重复的吠声，随着它变得更加焦虑和心烦意乱，吠声也会越来越高。另一方面，无聊的吠叫更加单调和重复。警报吠声通常是尖锐的、断断续续的，而提醒吠声与之相似，而且强度更大。
When your dog wants something from you, her barks are sharp and continuous. Suspicious barking is typically slow and low. Fearful barking is also low, but it's usually faster. And as Whole Dog Journal points out, playful barking just sounds playful.
如果你的狗想从你这儿获得什么时，它会发出锐利而持续的吠声。异常的狗叫声通常迟缓而浑厚。恐怖的狗叫声也很低，但通常更快。正如《Whole Dog Journal》所强调的，好玩儿的鸣叫声听起来便是好玩儿。
Puppies make all sorts of dramatic groaning noises when they are settling down to nap, while older dogs may sign as they relax for their own naps. Those are good noises that make you maybe want to settle down and snuggle up with them too.
当小狗狗们平静下来提前准备晚上睡觉，他们会发出各式各样引人注意的喘息声，而年纪很大的宠物狗则有可能会在他们释放压力下来提前准备午休时发出数据信号。这种全是好歌声，使你很有可能要想稳定下来，和他们偎依在一起。
