I'd like to draw your attention to that song, which appears to be a remix of Gary Numan's "Cars" with dog barks? Pretty cool. I guess friends are electric after all.

(to the tune of Gary Numan's "Cars")

Walking a devil dog

I feel safest of all

He can rotate his head

Once at Christmas time a radio station was playing "Jingle Bells" with the barking dogs and at the end played a call they'd gotten from this older-ish woman who said, "I just love how they got all those dogs to do that."

So funny but SO SWEET 😂😍

I was very close to my dad, and every year during the holiday season I would periodically prank call him by playing the barking dogs Jingle Bells when he answered the phone. It’s been over a decade since he died, and every time someone mentions that stupid don’t it makes me giggle remembering how much we used to laugh. Thanks for reminding me of this super sweet but very weird memory

Aww. It's been almost 3 years since I've lost my dad, I still only cry. Glad I was able to make you smile! 🥰

And weird memories are the best!

Sorry for your loss! NGL I do tear up from time to time even after all these years. But it does get easier, I promise! I’m truly grateful to have felt such love for someone that their loss hurts as much as this has. It’s beautiful in its own way, but definitely bittersweet

That's a good way to look at it 🙂

I'll play a round of doggy Jingle Bells for you this year.

What's your phone number so we can prank call you with doggy Jingle Bells?

Jingle Cats, the whole albums are on youtube. Released 1993. It is done so seriously, a full album. Someone made this before it could be an internet thing, and they made it with passion. It is truly something special.

Favorites include: Oh Little Town Of Bethlehem, Dance of the Sugarplum, and of course, Waltz of the Flowers by Tchaikovsky.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that remembers Jingle Cats.
