See? He's got the hang of it.

To everyone who says they “can’t Twitter” or “don’t get it,” look — it’s so easy, a dog can do it.

No really, a dog can Twitter.

Mattel has come up with something called “Puppy Tweets.” If you think your dog could tweet some worthwhile nuggets of wisdom, sign Fido up for his own Twitter account, then pay $30 to buy Puppy Tweets, a plastic sound-and-motion sensor that clips onto your dog’s collar and sends out several pre-written tweets.

For example, “YAHOOOOOOO! Some days you just gotta get your bark on.”

Since anyone – or any animal – can tweet now, there’s really no excuse for anyone to not be an active tweeter.
