I'm impressed! Nice skillset!
Howling (upside down!)
-
I have been going through some old (really old!) videos, and came across this one of my previous boy, Sunny. He would howl on cue. I had a little song I would sing that would set him off, or for that matter all one had to do was say to him, "You're only a dog, and that's all you'll ever be!" and he would tune up. Mattered not the position he was in at the time. Here's a short clip:

He was no slouch at yodels, either!

He was also the homeliest Basenji I have ever owned, but he made up for it with having the sweetest temperament you can imagine.

made my day! thanks for sharing

That's funny. One of mine will only really get going on a howl (like if we come home at an odd time or they're especially riled up) if he has a toy in his mouth. Not any special toy, just any random one that is nearby. I wonder If it is keeping his mouth open partly that shoes it and I ownde if being upside down makes it easier.

I don't think being upside down makes it easier, quite the reverse. Sunny liked to howl. He would tune up on his own or with prompting. My current boy will howl if I encourage it, and occasionally when triggered by something….....e.g. the telephone ringing, if I am not immediately available to answer it. Certainly some dogs are more vocal than others.
