Scotties have a special talent that some of us rarely use, but others of us use a lot. We have a classic howl that sounds like “arrooooooo”. Sadie likes to howl frequently to let us know her presence, but I rarely howl and Molly almost never howls. It takes both of us howling like crazy for her to join in and that’s a really rare occurrence.
Sometimes Wen can get us to howl by pretending to howl just like us, but it takes a lot of persuasion. Other times when we hear the garage door go up and we know that Wen has come home, Sadie will start to howl, I join in, and Molly even sometimes joins in when Sadie and I are howling persistently.
I don’t know if our Scottie howls are very musical, but they are pretty enthusiastic and one thing’s for sure–they can be loud!
