Dog Talk: Do you know what your pet is saying?

Tinkerbell and Bluebell are cute and they know it. The two little dogs live with their human family in Kuala Lumpur, and they rule the roost.

“Tinkerbell joined us first, almost 13 years ago,” Michelle Woo, an Emmett massage therapist, reminisces. “Bluebell was supposed to come too, but there was a mix-up with the booking and she went to another family. They decided they didn’t want her, and so she came to us when she was six months old.”
