I think Thia is related to the wolf, pretty close too ... just look here!

Do your Cairn do this?

[KShep]

No, it's so weird because Ripley doesn't make any of those sounds. She has a deep bark and growls, but never whimpers or howls.

[Lynn in TN]

So far Kelly hasn't howled, she has deep bark and growls also. It would tickle me pink if she did howl!

[kjwarnold]

Packy howls when I leave sometimes. I've never heard it, but several people have told me it happens.

[Sam I Am]

That is hilarious! Jock does a "happy you are home" howl.

[Dempsy's Mom]

Very cute. Dempsy does high pitch barks and low growls, no howling. I liked hearing Thia howl. Thanks.

When I lived in NH, my cairns used to howl in unison when I left the house. It was absolutely beautiful. I wish I'd recorded it.

No howling from Addie. But she is VERY vocal about her opinions and has about 7 different barks, at least. All incredibly high pitched. Please tell me the bark gets lower pitched as they get older.

That's exactly how I describe Ripley. I tell people- she doesn't bark a lot but she is VERY talkative.

I've only heard Robby howl 1 time.We where walking in the park and a fire trunk went down the road with its siren running.He kinda looked at me like "what should we do about it" so I playfully howled myself just a sec and he joined in.It was the most perfect little howl and I can't seem to get him to do it again.

[Hawkeye]

Neither Bailey & Radar howl. Radar is very talkative thou. He grumbles and yells at me when he wants to play with his toys. Bailey's very content, not too much to complain about.

When the mailman is nearing our house & Sophie is barking her fool head off, I tell her "NO BARK!!". She switches to a kind of squealing, whining, shriek that reminds me of an excited chimpanzee. Kind of a monkey-dog, I guess. She's so weird!!

Hahaha!

Harry howls a lot , especially when he is happy !

Does this when anyone in the family comes home , or if you are playing with him and he has his bone.

I must get a video to post ......its the cutest thing and I love to hear it!

[Meggie]

Aaaaw our boy is very vocal but no howling!

Too cute.

[percy's_girl]

No howling from Percy. I played your video a few times for her and she promptly went to her toy stash to make sure the squeaky in the video wasn't a toy she was missing

Don't have a facebook account so I can't watch it. Is there any other way to view this? I know that I can sign up, had an account previously and got rid of it, too much of a distraction for me.

Good story! Made me smile.

[darkpantherbabe]

LMAO! i turned the sound on to hear this and Sadie came running over with ears 'n head cocked! picked her up and put her on my lap and she kept turning her head and cocking it and starring at the screen with ears perked. lol. Sadie doesn't howl... She mock growls when you play with her in a certain way however.

Same Here! Facebook bad! Cairn Forum good!

Addie's just started this new vocal thing. When I leave the room, she waits about a minute and then starts to whine (I'm working on making it stop). But instead of a typical whine, the past couple of days she's actualyl started to sound like a cooing bird. Almost like some sort of dove. I just tell her she's weird.

And I'm glad to hear others saying their Cairn talks. Addie's not a barker, she's a talker. One bark to get the air conditioning one, one to ask for water, one to say hello to other dogs, another to say hello to kids, one when she's certain I've abandoned her forever, one when she's demanding something she can't reach . . . she keeps adding more.

No howls like those among any of my girls. Cute as the dickens tho--I would encourage it. For play only tho.
