Speech therapist here, being just a tad pedantic: I don't see a reason for testing patients on their ability to name the letters of the alphabet - at least not in a speech or pronunciation kinda way as is insinuated here.

As a diagnostic tool, you most certainly ask patients to repeat specific sounds to see if they have any phonological or phonetical processes that hinder their speech. But given that the English alphabet is quite different from IPA, so usually several sounds mixed into one letter, they're not really fit for such a diagnostic assessment.

For patients with a neurological pathology, you could use the alphabet to assess the patient's memory, test their planning skills, or maybe test to see which parts of their brain might have been damaged if they suffered a stroke and to conclude what kind of problems they might have to have worked on in therapy.

From memory, that's how his parents speak, so it's a regional accent and would not be treated without Scooby raising it as an issue.

Do better 2019 fro_vo, not everyone speaks the same as you.

Yeah, dogs are supposed to be able to speak better than that!?1

It's since that paw patrol thing. Dogs nowadays are being held to insane standards.

And too many of them are pressured to become cops

Back in my day, dogs were lawless vigilantes that went after people trying to do insurance fraud!

There is a talking dog who speaks fluent human language in the Scooby doo alien movie so yeah
