Why does my Mac keep barking at me?
Every so often my Mac barks once. It sounds like a German Shepherd. Has anyone else had this happen, or know what causes it?

1. My iMac doesn't have a dog sound...
I use 10.4 you might be using 10.5 (maybe they added it?)

I would start with going to:
Apple Menu-->System Preferences-->Sound-->Sound Effects :: and change the Alert volume.

3. you aren't feeding it enough. Also, change the water.
Macs like fresh water.

4. If you run Bookdog
to organize bookmarks, it will bark when bookmarks are sorted.
