Refers to where ya casually "say sumpin' to da dog" in order to less-directly convey said remark to one or more fellow humans within earshot.
A classic example of "canine-communication channeling" would be to tell da family pooch to let a recently-arrived visitor alone so dat he can relax after performing a stressful/exhausting task for you; what you are really meaning is to express regret and gratitude to said weary person for his so-greatly exerting himself on your behalf.
