�Bow wow � is what kiddies say. Other than that, when dogs bark, they say �Woof. �
Of course, some dogs can say much more than that....

UK English here - I would accept "bow-wow" and "woof" or "woof-woof". |

Agree with Frau Sue. Can I add that �bow wow � is kiddie-speak (what we teach children to say) and �woof � is what adults say to render the sound a dog makes when it barks. |
