cane trombetta
Explanation:
Esiste l'espressione <B>"scoreggiare a trombetta"</B>, che mi sembra volgare.
Eviterei anche la traduzione più letterale: <B>"il cane che scoreggia"</B>.

Da Sansoni:
- pooch = (sl) (dog) cane
- toot = 1. (of a horn) sonare, 2. (to sound a horn) strombettare 3. (sound) di corno ( o clacson) --> --> evtl <B>cane clacson</B>
