What Makes A Dog Howl ?

[pattricia 580]

My son has two Labradors. One of them after playing around in the lounge will start to howl like a wolf.  It’s really comical but I wonder why one of the dogs howls but the other doesn’t. ? What causes it ?

My last dog used to howl only in response to ice cream vans that passed the house playing their jingle.  A rescue, so who knows why.

It just sounds like a real wolf.
