It is no secret that dogs have the ability to tell you exactly what they are thinking if they are given training and access to the right tools. Whether they are hungry or wanting to go outside, there are some tricks that you can use so you'll know exactly what they're trying to tell you. 

 

In tonight's first episode of The Secret Life of Pets, the series will explore communications with animals and whether it's possible for us to fully understand our dogs with the use of new technology. 

 

In an amazing clip released ahead of the series' first episode, Bunny the dog uses a complicated arrangement of push buttons to speak to her owner. The pup is shown asking her owner to go outside. When told by her owner "later", Bunny presses the buttons for "Now" and also "Happy". 

 

The episode shows that with the help of brand new science, we could see how every animal has their own unique way of expressing themselves as well as helping us understand them.
