In Super Troopers 2 (2018), Farva meets Gwenevieve at a shopping mall:

Farva: Hey, Gwenevieve how about the two of us go over to the Saskatchuan Palace and get a wang dang doodle?

Genevieve Aubois: Uh, non.

Farva: Ooh, woof woof. Put a little bark on that and I'll bite.



Best Answer

What she's essentially saying is, "I'm not convinced that you really don't want to go." If she came off more convincing (adding a little "bark" to her response), then she'd believe the response (i.e., she'd "bite" that the response was legit).

This is why you'll note that Genevieve scoffs at Farva and then leaves.
