Ok, this is actually a riddle but it's still a puzzle.

What can bark but cannot bite?

There is one thing in particular that I am thinking of, but if you think of something else instead that would still be right, well done anyway.

Anybody want a clue?Melon247 (Dog&#39;s Life&#39;s No. 1 fan)

 * He, I knew someone would say that. I meant the sound kind of bark. I'll give you a clue if you want.Melon247 (Dog&#39;s Life&#39;s No. 1 fan)

I've heard the sound of a frog described as barking. And I don't think frogs have teeth so they cannot bite. So, is it a frog? New User 17:30, 1 August 2008 (CDT)
 * Well, I guess they do sort of bark, but i was thinking of something a little bigger, and even if a frog doesn't have any teeth it could still bite you if you annoyed it enough. The thing I meant doesn't actually have a mouth on the outside.Melon247 (Dog&#39;s Life&#39;s No. 1 fan)

I'm stumped. The only animals without mouths are... bugs! But then you have to argue whether or not a proboscis is capable of "biting." Is it a cicada? -- 12:54, 2 August 2008 (CDT)


 * Well, a cicada isn't related to a reptile (I don't think). I have the feeling no body is going to get this one. it is rather difficult. I'm going to skip straight to the next puzzle.

the right answer
No body worked it out, but the answer was a crocodiles egg! They make a sort of barking sound when they are ready to hatch, and they can't bite because they are inside an egg shell.

Let's see who can make the most words out of:

publicity in Las Vagas

You can mix up the letters as much as you want, but you can only use each letter once, (eg. you can use up to 3 a's because there's three of them but you could only use one v)

answers
Well, since there isn't a requirement that the words have to form any sort of coherent sentence or that acronyms aren't allowed, so: a tv say call gin is I pub. I do believe that I used every letter, forming 8 words. --
