Our female Doberman started howling about 2 years ago, she is 7 now. Almost every day usually after barking at unseen enemies for several minutes she will do 3-4 real good long howls. She sounds like a cross between a coyote and a wolf. She is my 4th Doberman but the first howler. Always cracks me up.

I thought that was fascinating so I found this: Why Do Dogs Howl?

This gives me hope... that one day mine will finally howl for me! Then my life will be complete.

Pogo was afraid of the ocean. Now he will go there on his leash and when a huge wave comes in he runs at it and barks at it so it will go away. It does go away.

Trouble is, it's endless and he actually thinks it's HIS BARKING that makes it go away.

At my house I leave the back door open 24/7 when the weather is nice and he lets himself out whenever he wants. When we wants to come back in he stands at the threshold and gives a woof, woof and waits. There is no screen door and even though he sees the other dogs simply walk back in he waits for me to come and "let him in".

The funniest part is that I do not even have to walk all the way to the door, I just have to step in to the sunroom and tell him to come in from 10 feet away.

I got him in late August and he was just starting to learn that he did not have to ask to be let in and wait for me. Then the weather got cold and the door was closed. Recently we've had one warm day with the door open and he seems to have forgotten that he can come in all by himself. I'll have to start the training process all over again.

Your story reminds me of when I first got Maddie the english cocker. She was 4 when I adopted her and I was at my parents for a week when I got her. My parent's dogs would go in and out the pet door that was in the glass patio door. Maddie would stand and watch them then turn and look at us like did you see that they just walk through glass...then she would walk over and bang her head on the glass as she tried to just walk through the glasss door not the dog door took her a few days to get it after all she was a beautiful blonde ( sorry if you are bonde I could not resist).

The laugh for today goes to Dazzle as he saw one of his friends coming down the path to the dog park and let go that wonderful howl type noise that sight hounds do. Every one was laughing and he turns to look at us like "WHAT?"

Told a lesbian joke. God, I love lesbian jokes!
It might have been someone else, but I thought it was my dog. I'm pretty sure it was, anyway.
