Life Stages
A great app
I am a long time dog lover and I like games that both me and my dog can enjoy. I found a fun iPhone app called Speak Dog. This app allows you to enter a phrase and it translates the phrase to dog. It always makes me laugh and my dog enjoys hearing the barks coming from my phone.
