[Vocabulary] The dog barks in a loud voice?

[shikemoku]

Is it OK to say "The dog barks in a loud voice."?

It sounds strange to me because dogs don't speak, and therefore have no voice.
Would "bark loud(or loudly?)" sound better?

Thank you in advance,

shikemoku

Yes, barks loudly is more natural.

Is a dog's bark produced by the vibration of its vocal cords? If so, I'd call it a voice.

It can certainly vary its bark and make other sounds to communicate.

 

[shikemoku]

I checked some websites, and I found that dogs do have vocal cords.
Then, would you say, for example, "The dog barks in a loud voice." or does it still sound unnatural?

 

[Rover_KE]

It's still unnatural.

 

[shikemoku]

Thank you very much, Rover KE.

In Japanese, some people use the words for "in a loud voice" to describe a dog's barking.
It still doesn't sound very natural, though.

Thank you again for your advice.
I really appreciate it.
