bradl Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 This little performance takes place nearly every day around 4pm, for reasons unknown. This is merely the encore as they are nearly done by the time I manage to think of grabbing my phone or try to get it recording without interrupting them. 2 3 Quote CAIRNTALK: Questions?

hheldorfer Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 How odd . . . but adorable. Funny thing: Several years back - around this time of year - we went through a phase where Buffy and Ziggy would go on high alert in the early evening and start barking like crazy. Never figured out what caused it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkcrossley Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) they are convinced something is happening. it's like they are answering somebody. a truck passing? somebody walking their dog? a plane flying over? an alien drone seeking response from intelligent life on earth?

Hillscreek Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Our big retrievers used to do this now and then. All of a sudden one would howl and then another and then all together. A weird and shiver making sound especially at night. About the same high wolf sound as yours brad. Calling the ones not here any more I use to wonder.

Kathryn Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 (edited) As I was watching this, Oban started to howl. Angus, though, just barked. Oban and I have "group howls" occasionally, and sometimes DH will join in. I consider it "pack solidarity." Some of my cairns over the years have howled with me, and others have just looked at me like I am crazy... Just as I can never figure out why they might like one neighbor dog and not another, I cannot figure out why some howl and some don't. It's fun, though. Maybe that is why yours howl, Brad.

Lupinegirl Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Adorable! My guy refused to howl with an audience around. The only reason I know he could howl was because he threw a huge fit about being left alone in the house once and added a few soulful howls to the barks and shrieks. The dog I had before him was a husky so I was used to a chatty howler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
