Honestly, any decent dog owner can read the signs that their dog makes in terms of basic communication. We co-evolved after all. I don't know how much a dog translator would be especially useful.

This is off memory but I think the motivations were

  • monitoring the state of dogs for all the hours a person can't be there to watch them.
