cannibalgoldfish Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Quote We had a singing X when we lived in Port Moresby - she had the best singing vocalization and was a great watch dog except the local Tom cat beat her up a couple of times I'm not surprised! The NG Singing Dog is a primitive Asian breed along with Shiba Inus and Dingos. If you have ever heard a Shiba in full song you can clearly hear the family resemblance. Also, Loki was terrorised for many years by my neighbours cat who would lie in wait then spring out and boop his tail. More proof that cats are really in charge :D 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossumCorner Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Similar to Basenjis - they are also Primitives - and do not bark. It is generally called yodelling but has a wide range of tone and volume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannibalgoldfish Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Loki yodeled, it was quite musical! Wylie screamed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papillon Kisses Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Malcolm yodels at the vet when kept for the day, if his emotional needs are not taken care of. The specialist hospital decided that he must be part basenji. As @tdierikx would say... errr! Also I am disappointed that no one gets or appreciates my bazinga reference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asal Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 (edited) Wish I had Ch Pureheel Royal Echo on tape, when the moon was out that boy was a canine Pavarotti. When he went back to his breeder later in life (he had left her as a puppy) She couldn't believe it, first night he began singing. Not only beautiful boy, but exceptionally talented Edited November 7, 2020 by asal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
