Do you sing to your dog?

And if you do, do you make up loving nonsense or choose a real song?

Of course! I change songs to include his name 😂.

Moltenpink · 12/06/2023 18:58

Ha ha. Yes I do. Substituting words for ones he knows 😀

ZoeyBartlett · 12/06/2023 18:59

Obvs. They both have different songs with their names in and some joint where we change the verses to be about them.

WonkyFeelings · 12/06/2023 19:00

Of course! Who doesn’t 😂

HandbagsnGladrags · 12/06/2023 19:01

Yes, we actually have a 'night night' song!

BigBundleOfFluff · 12/06/2023 19:01

Yes. We sing the 12 days of dogmas all year long. She's a golden retriever so obviously 5 gold rings is 5 golden retrievers. 3 French hens is 3 frenchies etc.
It's catchy!

I used to have a dog called Daisy. Her favourite song was the old favourite, 'Daisy, Daisy, Give Me Your Answer, Do'. I'd sing it and she'd bark or howl along with me. It was our party trick Grin

SirenSays · 12/06/2023 19:05

No. With my voice I think I'd be reported for animal cruelty

DarkSignOfTheMoon · 12/06/2023 19:07

All the time.

Real songs wit his name, breed and the words dog and puppy thrown in for replacements at any opportunity.

SirChenjins · 12/06/2023 19:09

Sometimes - but he’s obviously not keen on my singing as he gets up and walks away.

I do give him head, back and shoulder massages which he likes v much.

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 12/06/2023 19:10

Yes. My Cav Harry has his song, to the tune of the theme tune of Dogtanian and the 3 Muskahounds.

Oh yes when he was a puppy and refusing to go to sleep we used to sing:

soft puppy, warm puppy
little ball of fluff
happy puppy, sleepy puppy
woof, woof, woof

Worked every time!

AtlasPine · 12/06/2023 19:11

Yes! My dog sometimes walks away too. He loves a rocking chair to I get him all comfortable then start crooning when he can’t be arsed to move.

Yes it was to the theme of little boxes (from tv series weeds) and was nonsense but used to sing to him when he was sleepy. Sang it to him when he was being pts a few weeks ago 😢

bingohandjob · 12/06/2023 19:24

Yes, we put his name in loads of songs.

My husband also chats to him in/"teaches" him French and talks through what he's cooking, when doing little jobs around the house etc.

PoorlyDS · 12/06/2023 19:36

"Are you a good boy? A good boy? A good boy?" Composed by my music writing husband - only he sings that one though 🎶
I sing "you are the cutest. You are the bestest" to the time of il a survivor

Whatthediddlyfeck · 12/06/2023 19:48

No-I have a terrible singing voice and I love my dog 😂

theblackradiator · 12/06/2023 19:52

yes I sing you are my sunshine to my dog. he's the only one in my family that doesn't complain how bad my singing is! I love have a cuddle and a sing to him 😊

Billybagpuss · 12/06/2023 19:53

Of course and I play the piano to her, she likes Bach Goldberg variations, Debussy and Kabalevski she doesn’t like Hindemith a leaves quickly.

Sarahtm35 · 12/06/2023 19:54

Yes I sing ‘you are my sunshine’ to my Bichon frise, just recently adopted another bichon frise and need to find him a song too 🤔

Spidey66 · 12/06/2023 19:54

All the time! I usually change words to her name. She thinks I’m barking (see what I did there.)

I sing that but Sunshine is changed to Maggie.

SquashPenguin · 12/06/2023 19:58

I’ve got a bedtime song I made up for him! And I always change words in songs for the word Pug or his name. Sometimes I’ve done it whilst driving forgetting he’s not actually in the car with me 🤣
