Dogsplaining

1) The different barks, tail wags and motions a dog uses to get the attention of their owner for food, to go to the bathroom, to go for a walk or to play.

2) The rhetorical questions people ask their dogs using baby talk as they care for them. Of course the dog can't answer, but the talk pleases their owners.
