    Dog sounds

    What does your dog's bark sound like? Just wondering, as I know some of each ...

    Bruni/Freckles (Saint Bernards) were Boof! dogs ...
    Gracie (Great Dane) was more of a Rooo roo roo-er
    The Sheltie at the office is a Yip! Yip! Yip!-er ...

    hee hee, what a great poll, Karen!!

    Malone is hilarious and he is predominantly a very low "rowwwwwl rowwwww rrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" when he and Emerson are playing. And when somebody comes to the door, he is a "Errrooooooooooooooooooo wooo wooo"

    Emerson doesn't speak very much, but when he does, he does the "arf arf arf" thing.



    I think this is language only a dog lover could know or understand

    It depends, if it's barking as in when the doorbell rings, Tommy is pure "woof woof woof!" very deep woofing. Tash is more "rooooroorororororoo!"

    But they also have separate play barks and Tommy makes so many different types of noises it's hilarious. He can sound like a cow or a monkey Tasha's excited play bark is almost like a "raff! raff!"

    Sadie doesn't bark often, but when she does, it is one harsh woof!

    Spot has different barks...he justs woofs at things, but when he is excited it "sings" His barks get almost whiny

    Cincy has the most unusual bark. She gives one woof then a grumbly rawr, rawr, rawr...

    Mostly howls, not much barking around here.

    However, two stand out and can't really be adequately described with words.....Raven squeals--like a baby pig, but 100X louder. When she first arrived, my closest neighbor called to ask what I was doing to that poor dog. It took a long time before he believed me that the noise is her happy sound!!

    And Founder...you ain't heard nothing until you've heard Founder! It's a god-awful sound. If you can't see him and don't know him, you'd swear he was dying a slow, agonizing death! It's awful!!!! When he was a foster, people always asked why I left him in the pen until after they arrived. I always explained that they had to hear him if they were going to consider adopting him---the noise is just one of the many reasons Founder never got adopted by someone besides me!

    I voted Other because I have 4 dogs, and they have different kinds of barks.

    Prince- Probabaly a "Birk, Birk," but he does also have a "Rooo roo roo" side to him.

    Digger- He's a "Rarf! Arf!" type of dog. He only barks when someone comes into the yard.

    Otis- A definate "Woof!" dog! I should get a sound clip of him barking... maybe even a video, it is so funny!

    Chubby- Another "Woofer." Not quite as "whoofy" as Otis, but a "woof" is what comes outta him!

    Nala's is mostly like a "Rooo rooo roo"
    (I'm sure half of the world has heard her by now. )

    Simba's changes. I guess it depends on what he's barking at.

    I ROTFL with your explaination of Cincy. SPOT and Cincy are my Ruby combined.

    Captain does the Woof, woof - just 2, no more ....

    Haha..my grandma and brother know that sound all too well!

    Kaedyn does a high pitched "ARR! ARR! arrarrarr!"

    Kai usually does a "Woof! woof!" and a "arrooooroooroooo!!!" when he gets really excited.
