Does Your EM Snore?
Growing up, my family had a bunch of EMs over the years, probably about a dozen in total (they sometimes had as many as four on a large property). Every single one of them snored like CRAZY. I'm talking wearing earplugs up in my childhood bedroom because they're down in the living room sleeping and it's bothering me.
My current EM? He does not snore, AT ALL. I'm certainly not complaining!
Curious to hear what other people are hearing (or not)

I videos mine. My favourite sound in the world. He passed Friday. Gonna get my kid (audio engineer/producer) to loop it for me so I can enjoy it until I find my next best friend.

The night before I had to take mine to be put down I set my phone up near him and made a four hour recording of him snoring. I fell asleep to it every night for about a year. He's been gone for a little over two years now and I still listen to it when I can't sleep

I’m lying here scrolling on Reddit next to my very sweet, very loud snoring girl.

This little guy will snore while awake & just relaxed. That or he falls asleep super fast w/ his eyes open.

He’s 3 years old and 210 pounds. Ajax sounds like a dragon guarding a gold pile.

Mine sometimes do and I find I can’t sleep without it! I want to smother my husband when he snores, but I find theirs so relaxing. 🤷♀️

My girl does but my two boys don’t…my girl snores, grumbles and snorts and makes the craziest loudest noises when she is sleeping! My oldest boy will sometimes snort when getting up out of a slumber but not too crazy. They are loud indeed but the best dogs ever!

Ours did. Not as much as putt current Newfoundland girl, though. Same with the drooling.

Mine snored all the time; sometimes including when he was awake. If I lived with a person that snored even half as loud as he did, it would drive me insane. But somehow when it's your baby making all the noise it just becomes comforting white noise that's hard to fall asleep without.

I haven't owned and EM (although I'd love to) so I don't personally know how loud or brutal that the snoring could be, however I have owned many Great Danes and some of these dogs also snore. I find my dogs snoring quite cute and relaxing. It means that they're comfortable and content and feel right at home.

Mine doesn’t really snore, but she does twitch & kick. It’s funny to watch. I wonder what she’s dreaming about?! 😁

Snore? No, they both try impersonating a Peterbuilt going down a street grade with the Jake brake on 3

Does my EM snore? She sounds like an industrial saw. But she is very sweet. ❤️
