Howling

[maynard001]

We adopted a one year old, Cali, about 3 weeks ago and are new to the breed. So my question is this...my son has discovered when he plays his harmonica he can make Cali howl. Is she distressed when she howls? It is a howl not a cry, but it seems mean to me. What do you think?

Freya howls when my kids play their harmonica too. It's the only time she howls. I don't think she's distressed, if one of her toys are around she grabs it and runs around squeaking it while they play the harmonica so she seems relaxed, but I still only let them play it around her occasionally. Of course they think it's hilarious!

It's called the Woo Hoo song. Fletcher does this too, although he does it when no one is paying attention to him, when the kids get on the school bus, when playing with the kids and if you sing around him. Don't you love how cute their mouths look when they do this?!

Wow that is so funny I might have to try it too. A friend of mines boxer does the woo woo song if she pretends to howl but mine wont I wll have to see if the musical instruments help ha ha...

My Scotch woo woo's when Blitz and Lucy are playing and leaving him out. It's too funny. "Woo-woo play with me." LOL cracks me up. I have to try the harmonica to see what kind of reaction that would get.
