| Do Yorkies Sing? I know, I know. Crazy question. BUT... I taught my Cocker Spaniel to 'sing'...on command she would go off on this howling thing. I just tried it with Sassy and all I got was her backing up away from me and making funny little noises....like she suspected I was losing it. LOL She does have some pretty funny responses. Lately she has taken to gently nipping at my toes when I am barefoot. |

| I think you could teach them to sing! I had a little mixed breed that my Dad loved and he would play his harmonica and Missy would sing!! It was so adorable! Toto will dance on command ... so, yes, I believe you can teach Sassy to sing!!

| Kiko doesn't exactly sing, but he does "hum" when he is excited. I think it is supposed to be a growl, but it comes out like a hum or a purr. |

| My mom says that Rexy howls like a coyote sometimes when we leave - does that count as singing!

| They definitely have a full repertoire of noises/sounds that they make that I have never heard other dogs make. I think they are very expressive! |

| we tried teaching Ginger to "sing" & she would just bark & playfully growl at us. She is kind of "airheaded" I guess!
