I know, it's silly, but I figure I'm probably not the only one And if I am, well then we've just confirmed I'm as nuts as the dog....

I'll start:
I have a couple that I sing to little Nut:

To the tune of Little Shop of Horrors:
Little Pup, Little Pup-a-roni, you're the Pup, you're the Puppy-Doggie

My version of Georgie-Porgie nursery rhyme:

Ginger-Punkin'-Puddin'-Tot
Kissed the males and made them hot
When the males came out to play
Ginger-Punkin' ran away

I got more....but I don't want to sound like such a geek

Faaaaaaar to many to name. At the moment: to the tune of the Village People's Macho Man,

Nik-O Nik-O Lai.... I wanna eat, your nachos, man...

It works better when you're belting it out as your reheating Mexican food. ;-) Trust me on this.

Lol! Awesome! Keep 'em coming!

I have another one, but am having a senior moment. I'll post it when I remember.

Poooh Bear, Reiko the Poooh bear! You are a bear! Pooh bear, Pooh Bear.

then repeat

To the tune of the Tiki Room song. This one's for Faith by the way...

It's the Facey, Facey, Facey, Facey, Facey-poo. It's the Facey, Facey, Facey, Facey, Facey-poo. All the birds sing word and the flowers bloom with the Facey, Facey, Facey, Facey, Facey-poo.

Off to hang my head in shame.

this thread is hilarious! I can just picture all of you singning to your doggies. I must be one of the rare....I do not do this. And if I did, I may or may not tell anyone.

Honestly, when I first saw this thread I thought the exact same thing. I thought to myself, I don't ever sing to my dogs! And then this morning as I was reading the new posts, it hit me like a ton of bricks...I was one of THEM! I do sing to my dogs!

I don't sing it, but I do always call Dakota my little Pooh Bear. I like to rub my face with his and tell him how much I love my Pooh Bear. Is that embarrasing or what???

yeah im not a singer either but i do stick my head on theirs and say funny things about how much i love them!

LOL I sing to them all the time

Most of the time it's the "name game" sung to whatever tune is in my head at the moment. Right now it's "From a table away"

Generally something like this...

Cheyannnnniiieeee. Bananieeeeee. I loooooovvee the foxy. You are soooo purdddyyyy. Cheyennnnneeee. Shanny bananie feee fiiii foooo fannnyyyyyyyyy I loooovvveee the banannniiieeeee.

God that's so ridiculous. Even more when my accent comes through lol I sound like a real hick it's so embarrassing.... if anyone heard me i'd die!

hmmm...maybe everyeone should submit a video of them singing to their huskies!!

Oh GOSH NOOOOOO!!!!!

I found myself singing (to the tune of "You are my sunshine")

You are my Puppppieeeeeeee, my only Nutmeg, you make me happyyyyyyy all live long day........

I have video somewhere of my husband "playing" my cat, like a little bongo drum. It's really funny. I think he'd just DIE if I posted a video of him singing to the critters though... and I can't say I blame him. I totally sing to them all the time. It's just sort of second nature now. Hahaha...

Today's installment is:
To the tune of Ride of the Valkyries (or maybe it's William Tell Overture?)

Where's my dog
Who's the dog
Love the dog-dog-dog

Hug the dog
Pet the dog
Kiss the dog-dog-dog

Why the dog
What a dog
Who's this dog-dog-dog?

... it's my NIIIIIII-KOOOO-LAIIIII!!

@ Kate---i LOVE that!!!

Ok, I remembered another one I sing, It's kinda lame, but still.......I've found myself singing this a couple times. Oh, and BTW I can't carry a tune in a bucket FWIW!!!

To the tune of "Love me do"

Pup-pup-eee-do
You know I love you
I'll always be true
So Pleeeeeeeeaaaaase
Love me too!

@Leeandra - BEATLES SONGS ARE SOOOO GOOD! They're in regular rotation in our house, too. Generally any 2-3 syllable lyrics are subbed with Cos-mo or Nik-o-lai and it works. ;-)

We also have a strange obsession with The Simpsons in our house, so Chris will sing stuff to the fuzzies to the tune of "Duff Beer for Meeee, Duff Beer for Yoooou, I'll Have a Duuuuff! You have one tooooo..." or commercial jingles... seriously, our animals are all probably embarrassed to be around us because it's almost constant. ;-) At least they have good name recognition, right? ;-P

@ Kate---it's true! When we first adopted Nutmeg, the pound had named her so of course she had NO idea of her name. I actually started alot of it for that purpose. I'd fill 'Nutmeg' in as often as I could when I talked to her, and started every command with her name so she learned it. Also started all praise with it--"Good Nutmeg!" Now, she responds to Nutmeg, Nut, and DOG!!!!! when she's in trouble LOL! It's funny you mention the Simpsons. When I yell at her and I yell DOG!!!!! I hear it like the guy on the SImpsons yells "SKIN-NER!"

Oh yes, Superintendent Chomers' voice gets regular use in our house, too... usually "WIFEEEE-YYY!!" *lol* Come to think of it, we sort of sing-song and rip off quotes from stuff for more than half of the communication we have between us... Hopeless, I tell ya... hopeless.
