Howling

The first time it happened, I thought I was hearing things. The next time, I heard it well enough, and just burst out laughing.

My then baby dogs were howling, at the ice cream van.

I didn't expect Great Danes to howl. But thinking about it they are hounds, and hounds are known to howl.

Since then, they have howled for a number of reasons. The day that I had to walk to go visit them - when my car was bust for the weekend - I could hear them howling from up the road. I guess they were upset that I had left and that we hadn't gone to the park that day.

Apparently they howl every Sunday morning before I come to collect them for the park, and as my ex is leaving for church.

Whenever I hear the ice cream van in the area, it makes me think of them.

Yesterday, I had the privilege of seeing and hearing them howl at the ice cream van again. I love it and it still makes me giggle.
