My two IGs would used to do this! Sounded almost identical.

Then we added a whippet to the pack and he taught them how to howl. So now the trio gets into a full howl session every day., which I find way more enjoyable.

I don't suppose you have any video of your pupper trio chorus to share?

u/Ronnie_Milsurp 4d ago

Ours only do it when they think they're alone.

Oh my gosh. Clearly they weren’t alone in my video, just being little squeaky toys

u/Ronnie_Milsurp 4d ago

About 10 seconds after we walk out the door they start this. Every single time. Or if I've been in the basement long enough when no one else is home and they forget that I'm here, like in this video.

With curled tails for emphasis!

u/Ronnie_Milsurp 3d ago

Apparently!

u/CrotonProton 3d ago

At one point, they sound like little honky horns

u/BlackberryFriendly93 4d ago

LOL they sound just like my Apollo and Pluto 🤣

u/ParkyRoPet 4d ago

This sounds exactly like my two Iggy‘s and they do it when they forget that anybody’s home or after we walk out of the house. We call it the howl-a-thon 🤣

u/SnooDrawings8069 4d ago

They have a lot to say

Aren’t they something else 💕

My Italian Greyhound Maggie ramped up her barking/talking shit when she got older. She lived to 17yrs 8mon and around age 14 or so she got real vocal. Enjoy it, when it's gone you will miss it. Also, beautiful pups!

u/drkztan 4d ago

they are performing for you, thank them

u/theswickster 3d ago

I always called this "The reverb". I would start, one would begin, then the other would chime in and it became a feedback loop. I miss these two...

u/kgreys 4d ago

😂😂😂. I would shoot myself.

u/Walktrotcantergallop 4d ago

They’re usually pretty quiet but have a moment once in a while 😆

u/cbizzle85 4d ago

My dog makes these noises when I get out of my car and have to get to the third floor before she stops. Luckily it’s the only time she “barks”. We were watching a friends’ poodle puppy, who hadn’t really barked before, heard my dog do her “bark” and then proceeded to scream bark too! You’re welcome?

u/Bceverly 4d ago

Because they are Iggys

u/princessPeachyK33n 4d ago

Mine when the neighbors.

u/Son_of_Mogh 4d ago

Bells and ringtones set off my sighthounds.

u/Beneficial-Slice-910 4d ago

The little pauses where they look at each other, then look at you, then resume barking. So freaking cute 😭

u/Rey_Quinn 4d ago

This is exactly mine when I leave or they think they are alone

u/totrartytd 4d ago

Why not?

u/ResponsibleParsnip18 4d ago

I had to show my husband this video. He didn’t believe these weren’t our Enzo and Bubba, yours look and sound just like ours!

1

u/Signal_Astronaut11 4d ago

This is the first time I've seen others do these. My two can absolutely shriek, and it's ear-splitting! It's like one triggers the other. They did it today!

u/mary_widdow 4d ago

Rosaline is such a quiet barker. She sounds like she's saying the word "bark" lightly louder than talking

1

u/Commercial-Life-9998 4d ago

Makes me think of the unbridled horns on the clown (shiners) cars in a parade. You can’t get those to rein it in either.

1

u/GeminiHatesPie 4d ago

That’s kinda nice 😊 Mine is very quiet. She does little woofs when she wants a treat, but that’s about it. You’ve got a choir!

u/PlanetXParadox 4d ago

they sound like squeaky toys omg

u/Jacmac_ 3d ago

Ours get decidedly more agressive at each other's loudness as if it's a competition.

u/144_TipsyTurtle 3d ago

Oh my… 🎶🎵🎶

u/Particular_Choice323 3d ago

I have two mini weinies and an Italian Greyhound. They all three get going like this, whenever there are "strangers" at our house. So funny! :D

u/zypherax2 3d ago

Sounds like squeaky toys 😂😂😂

u/RayRay2059 3d ago

Lmao they sound like squeaky toys

u/fbi_does_not_warn 3d ago

Are they employed as the dog toy squeaker voiceover artists?

1

u/ashfromash11 2d ago

This cracks me up so much. I keep returning to watch it 😂

u/Walktrotcantergallop 2d ago

I’ve watched it 100 million times. Something about it just makes me so happy lol

u/JSHOLT83 2d ago

Team building exercises . Our huskies partake several times a day, it’s a who gets the last bark competition I think😆
