Do You Sing to Your Yorkie? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Yes, I do, or my step-dad whistles to Riley. He loves the song Amazing Grace. I don't know why, but he does. He goes absolutely crazy! I guess he's just really patriotic.

I sing and dance with Maddie a lot! I do what a lot of you do...make up different words to go with the music. She seems to be quite amused. Funny how us yorkie owners are so much alike! I love this place and all of you!

LOL... I call Gidget "The Peanut" and I'll sing, Peanut, peanut butter! and Jelly! First you take the Peanut, and you hug her, you hug her, then you take the Peanut and you kiss her, you kiss her!

I just showed this to my husband because he made fun of me when I would hold Bandit and sing "Puppy Love". He said they were going to put me away. Ha! Now he knows I'm not the only one to sing to a dog!!!!

Lady of Yorkies · 05-22-2005, 12:23 AM

My first Yorkie was Pirogue and I used to sing to him but he'd run away.

I'd hold him in my lap when we went someplace and sing along with the radio and he'd crawl over into my husbands lap. This gave me a terrible complex! He acted like my voice hurt his ears! I've had people tell me I should sing professionally so I assume my voice isn't a harpy screach. So I quit singing when he was around. Lady was our next dog but she was for my husband so I didn't sing for her. Autumn Rose was our next baby and she loves my singing!!! MY EGO IS RESTORED!!!!

It wasn't me! It must be his ears! I know my ears are sensitive to high pitched whines and dogs can hear those dog whistles so I figure he must be sensitive to certain tones or something. Sylvia

You and I have a couple things in common. My guy also says "I can have you committed for that" lol and we too have a "bandit". Prince and Angel decided to multiply, and had 3 puppies. We're keeping 2 of them (which we named bandit and yoda). Good thing we have a HUGE yard lol

When I sing to Prince and Angel, I hold them like newborns and rock them. Sometimes I sing normal songs and other times I make up songs. Either way, they love it.

My daughter likes singing to the new puppies (17 days old). She makes up silly songs but they seem to like it also.

I sing "You are my Sunshine" to both of my babies at the top of my lungs - they just sit there and turn there head from side to side - then I ask them, you like it when mama sings to you? They jump up & down!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who does this - my hubby thinks I losing it - dressing them up & singing to them - he says what's next?

coopersunshine · 05-22-2005, 04:48 PM

This is too funny and cute!!!!
I look at my boy when i sit at the computer and he will look back at me and then i'll start singing to him and he will give me the head tilt . Then he will want up so i pick him up and before you know it i am dancing around the house with him in my arms like a little baby. I sometimes make up words as i am going along or sometimes i will sing a normal song. But it seems his favorite is one that i made up called "mama's little baby boy". He jumps around in my arms when i sing him that.!!!!!!
