Trumpet?

[k9krazee]

I used to play the trumpet and my dogs would howl...especially Mini..and it didn't matter if I was on the whole opposite end of the house.

No, it won't damage a dog's ears. My brothers both played trumpet - one older, one younger, and none of our dogs showed any ill effect! Jenny's probably just "singing along" with you! She'll get used to you practicing given a little time.

I played woodwinds, and Gracie the Great Dane had no problem with me playing my clarinet, but my dad picked it up one day and tried to play it, and she went bananas! She barked, yowled, then tried biting the bell to make him stop! We were laughing so hard he finally couldn't hold a note, either, so she got her wish, and he never did that again!

No, it won't damage ears. If that were the case, Lady wouldn't try to stick her nose up the bell of my horn to figure out where all that noise is coming from.

omg i used to play the trumpet!! but i quit last year.. no i don't think it'd really hurt they're ears as long as you dont just go up to them and blast it in their face lol

My son started playing the trumpet this year too, and Lou Lou sticks her nose right into the end of it. He has to shut the door so she doesn't bug him!

LOL !! Same thing ! Except, with Jenny, her noes is so long and skinny, it fits right in that 'lil hole. One of these days it's gonna get stuck in there....

Thanks for the peace of mind, everyone
