How to teach your dog to sing along with Christmas carols
(snip)

You should begin your dogÕs vocal training by singing to your pet, advises Dibra. ÒMany dogs will respond by giving you a long howl-like bark if you really stretch out a note,Ó he explained. ÒFor instance, if you sing, ÔJingle Bells, Jingle Bells, jingle all the WA-A-A-Y!Õ ThereÕs a good chance your dog will bellow when you stretch out the word Ôway.Õ Then heÕll bark again when you sing, ÔOh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open SLEIGGGH!Õ Of course when your dog does this, you should reward him with praise, and an occasional treat.Ó

As you and your dog continue to practice, you can gradually stop stretching out the key words in a song. Soon, your dog will know to howl at the appropriate points in the song, without you exaggerating the words. ÒOnce you and your dog master this trick, it will look and sound really cute,Ó said Dibra, Òbecause it will appear that your dogÕs bellows are part of the song.Ó
