This evening I happened on a BBC Radio 4 programme about the New Guinea Singing Dog. They sound fantastic. And it's impossible not to join in - even sober-voiced experts were demonstrating the various calls and howls. It didn't take long before I was howling along. I was hoping Jake would trot through and join in, but he resolutely ignored the call of the wild. Sounds that do get him moving? The fridge door opening ... eggs being cracked ... the sound of the lid coming off the box of gravy bones ...
Anyway, aroo-ing apart, there's lots of interesting info in the programme about Singers and what Singers might reveal about how domestic dogs developed. The programme lasts 30 mins and is available on the BBC's Listen Again facility, I think for a week after initial broadcast (7 January 2008).
