WHY DOES MY DOG HOWL AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
SEPTEMBER 30, 2022

Why Does DOG Howl And What Does It Mean?

Dogs are highly intelligent, regal creatures that are favored around the world for their loyalty, love, strength and athleticism. They are also social animals and are very intuitive and at times it’s almost as if they can communicate through their body language and vocalizations.

If you’ve spent any time around a dog then you know they make a wide range of sounds. It’s common for them to have a variety of barks, such as a warning bark, an alert, a playful yap, and even desperate ‘I have go outside right now’ yip.

They will also growl for different reasons. The most serious growl is their fierce warning growl. But they also will growl to communicate pleasure, such as during a nice back scratch, or growl to get attention, or they may growl when they want to play. Each growl has a different pitch and the accompanying body language should be really easy to read.

Another sound that dogs make is the HOWL. Howling is more common in dogs like Serbian husky, German shepherd, Frenchie and others. The howl is easily the most hair-raising sound that they make. The wolf-like sound can’t be missed. It’s a sound that comes naturally to them and they do it for many reasons, such as:

✓ Triggered by sounds, such as sirens, trains, the television, or music.
✓ When communicating with other animals, think about how all the neighbor dogs will howl together.
✓Alerting to nearby wildlife or mimicking coyotes.
✓When sick or injured or in trouble
✓During times of loneliness
✓Due to separation anxiety
✓To get attention

HOWLING DUE TO A TRIGGER:

Most of the time, their howling is simply harmless communication that ends as quickly as it begins. You might notice it when the fire department drives by with sirens blaring, or a certain commercial comes on the television, or during part of a particular song.

This howl can be fun and is comical to watch. The dog is usually in a good state of mind and not stressed out about anything that’s going on. They seem to enjoy their howling time and then move onto their normal dog business.

HOWLING AT OTHER DOGS OR WILDLIFE:

If their howling becomes more frequent, it is usually due to the neighborhood dogs howling or even nearby wildlife making animal sounds. This type of howling is usually easy to identify because there is an entire chorus of dogs howling at the same time. The dog may be relaxed or tense depending on what is going on or if they are howling in an attempt to alert their owner.

HOWLING TO GET ATTENTION:

Dogs might also howl to get attention. This usually happens when they are separated from their pack or their owners in another room, crate, outside, or even at another location, such as the vet or while boarding. If this howling becomes a problem, it’s important not to give the dog what it wants (to be in, out, etc) as this will reward the behavior and cause it to happen more frequently. However, if you’ve forgotten your pup and they howl for attention, by letting them in or out its doubtful you’d be creating a bad habit. For all other times though, it’s best to just ignore them and avoid giving them positive or negative reinforcement or attention.

HOWL AS A FORM OF BEGGING:

The begging howl is less common but it can happen in a way similar to a begging bark. In this case, the dog is also howling to get attention and beg for what it wants, such as a toy or treat. Never give the begging dog the treat or attention while they howl unless you want it to become a habit. Some dogs are super smart and once they realize their howling will work in their favor, they’ll use it to get what they want all the time.

HOWLING DUE TO SEPARATION ANXIETY:

Sadly, dogs especially puppies will sometimes howl when they have separation anxiety. This howling happens when their owners are away from home and can go on for hours. Puppies with separation anxiety usually exhibit accompanying behaviors such as destructive chewing, pacing, panting, inappropriate elimination, stress, depression, escaping, and more. Separation anxiety is a serious problem that needs to be addressed for the health and wellbeing of the dog. It’s best to talk to your vet and an animal behaviorist if you need help managing your dog’s separation anxiety.

HOWLING DUE TO ILLNESS OR INJURY:

If you’ve spent any time in an animal hospital you’ve heard the heartbreaking sounds of howling sick or injured dogs. If a dog begins to howl for no apparent reason, especially when accompanied with a behavior change, it could be a signal that they need medical attention.

Some signs to watch for include change in appetite, change in bowl habits, licking one area of the body, alienating themselves, becoming needier, avoidance of touch, change in gait, holding the ears back, panting, vomiting, fever, and hiding are all big signals that the dog is in some sort of distress and needs to be examined by a vet.

UNLEASHING THEIR INNER WOLF:

Most of the time howling is just a dog channeling their inner wolf and letting some of their ancient lineage out. They enjoy howling and it can be entertaining to listen to them yowl. Howling is a totally normal dog behavior that many breeds enjoy, some more than others.

In some cases, howling can be a signal that something more serious is going on. It could be an alert or a sign of distress. In these cases, their body language and the entire situation that is going on at the time must be looked at to determine why they are howling to determine if they need some sort of help.

Does your canine demonstration contrastingly towards various sorts of individuals?

Even better, does your pooch appear to detest people you’re not a fanatic of either? Indeed, perhaps that is on the grounds that your pooch can detect when somebody is a ‘terrible person.

’Science has recently affirmed that canines can recognize a decent individual from a not very great individual.

Science discloses to us that mutts can really detect when somebody isn’t caring notwithstanding when that individual isn’t horrible to them explicitly.

Truly mind boggling, huh? Many contend that felines are more observing than pooches and that canines basically like everybody — except this investigation says that essentially isn’t valid!

As per an investigation by Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, mutts can separate a decent individual from a not very great person.During the analysis, the canine proprietors were given a compartment that was hard to open. The canine proprietors at that point went to a scientist for help.

The researchers either 1. helped the dog owner 2. stood there passively or 3. refused to help altogether — Then, all the researchers offered the dogs a treat. The dogs were much more likely to take a treat from a helpful or passive researcher but ignored the ones who refused to help their owners.The study clearly illustrated that dogs do not always ‘act out of self-interest.‘ The researcher who refused to help open the container showed no ill will towards the dog itself.

The dogs, however, sensed that the researcher was being unkind to their owner and wanted nothing to do with them.Does your dog know how to differentiate between a nice person and a not-so-nice person? Tell us all about it in the comment section!

Advice to DOG lovers

1. NEVER TRAIN FOR AGGRESSION on dogs at home.
2. If you have to, then hire a trained and qualified professional dog handler.
3. All dogs, not only Rottweilers, must be adequately socialised, exposed to the environment animals and human from 8 weeks to the day they breathe their last.
4. Castrate any male and spay any female you don't intend to breed from.
5. Feed the dogs good quality food in right quantities. Never let your dogs starve. Dogs are carnivores and hunger can lead them to cannibalism and the owner is not out of the equation.
6. Observe five freedoms of animal welfare at all times no matter the breed.
7. Never lock up dogs with intention of making them aggressive. This promotes antisocial behaviours and aggression may not be reversible.
8. Do not give your dogs bhang to enhance aggression. You can intoxicate and poison your dog.
9. Leash your dogs at all time they're outside a kennel and use appropriate choke chain or harness.
10. Protect your dog and he will protect you. Love them and treat them well.

HOW TO TAKECARE OF YOUR PUPPY FROM 3MONTHS
By the time your puppy is 3 months old, he’s starting to thrive in his puppyhood. He’s becoming more coordinated and confident and hopefully socializing well with other people and family pets. Your pup needs your attention more than ever during his third month. He’s continuing to bond with you and requires lots of play sessions and exercise. He’ll also need a visit with his veterinarian and plenty of good food, sleep and snuggling.

Eating, Playing and Napping
By the time he’s 3 months old, your puppy will be extending his play sessions longer in-between naps, but he’ll still require plenty of rest and good quality food.


Your puppy’s brain development is critical during the first year. It’s important to provide him with a high-quality food that is specially designed for puppies. Large breed puppies should eat puppy food for the first two years of life; small and medium-sized dogs can switch to adult food after one year. Give your puppy three meals per day, feeding him the amount your veterinarian recommends.

Provide your puppy with plenty of chew toys so he can satisfy his urge to gnaw on something other than furniture. A smart toy, such as the Kong, keeps your pup busy as he tries to manipulate it to get a treat. In addition to solitary play with his toys, your puppy should spend plenty of time playing with you. You can start teaching him basic commands and tricks, and play games like fetch. If your puppy is playing outside, ask your veterinarian to recommend a good remedy for flea and tick infestation.

Your puppy’s crate is an ideal spot for napping and sleeping at night. The crate should be just large enough for him to stand and turn around. If you buy a bigger crate so he can grow into it, place a rolled-up blanket in the end so that he doesn’t have room to eliminate in it. Place a soft blanket or towel on the floor to keep him comfortable.

Vaccinations Keep Your Pup Healthy
As the owner of a puppy, it’s your responsibility to ensure that he’s as healthy as possible. That includes vaccinating him from dangerous and even fatal diseases. Some states require certain vaccines, such as rabies.

Most puppies receive a series of vaccinations to prevent parvovirus, distemper, hepatitis and rabies. Your veterinarian may recommend other vaccinations. For instance, the Bordetella vaccine, which prevents kennel cough, is often recommended for pups who will be boarding at kennels while their owners are out of town.

Talk to your veterinarian about a vaccination schedule. Most vets provide a series of three combination vaccinations beginning when the pup is 6 to 8 weeks old. The vaccinations should be received three to four weeks apart. Until he’s had the full series of vaccinations, your pup is not fully protected. Your pup should receive his second round of vaccinations during his third month. If you haven’t visited the vet for vaccinations, it’s not too late to start.

Housetraining Requires Consistency
At 3 months old, your puppy is starting to gain some bladder and bowel control and should be able to start alerting you if he needs to eliminate. Effective housetraining requires vigilance and consistency.

Crate training is an effective way to minimize accidents and help your puppy understand that he can’t use your front room floor as a bathroom.

Take your puppy outside when he first wakes up, and again right before bed. Establish a feeding schedule for your puppy so that you have a good idea when he’ll need to eliminate during the day. Take him outside about 15 minutes after drinking water and 30 to 60 minutes after eating. Your puppy may choose a particular spot in the yard, or you can lead him to a spot of your choosing. Lead him to his spot and say a command such as, “Go potty” or “Get busy.”

Time for School
It’s important for 3-month-old puppies to get plenty of socialization, both with people and other dogs. Your puppy’s vaccinations aren’t yet complete, so it’s not safe to take him to a dog park or other public place where he might be exposed to dangerous illness. However, many puppy day cares have a special puppy room for youngsters. As long as he’s current on his vaccinations he can play with other puppies who are current on theirs. He’ll learn how to negotiate playtime and grow up less suspicious and nervous of other dogs.

Enroll your pup in a training kindergarten so he’ll start learning his puppy manners. Puppy kindergarten classes may be taught one-on-one with just your pup and an instructor, or in small groups with puppy owners handling their dogs.

We in this together untill your puppy hits 2years.

Bored Puppies Create Havoc
A young puppy shouldn’t be left alone in a room that hasn’t been puppy-proofed. He can quickly destroy valuable items, ingest poisonous plants or injure himself by chewing on exposed electrical cords. A puppy left alone in the yard may destroy plants, dig up the lawn or wiggle through the fence.

When you must leave your puppy for more than a couple hours, put him in his crate or a safe room. Provide him with some toys and make sure he has plenty of water.

Get Help While You Work
Ideally, you won’t need to leave your puppy home alone for more than a few hours. If you have to be away all day, arrange for a dog walker or caretaker to stop by and take him out to go to the bathroom, feed him lunch and enjoy a play session.

Once he’s fully vaccinated, send your puppy to day care where he can socialize with other dogs and run around all day. He’ll come home exhausted and

POTTY TRAINING

Things You'll Need
Housebreaking any puppy can be frustrating. When it's a really big puppy, it can be especially difficult. Your Mastiff puppy may be intimidating, strong and stubborn, but they're also loyal, gentle companions. Going through potty training is well worth the reward of gaining a loving, well-mannered family member. With a little knowledge about potty training and the Mastiff breed, housebreaking is easier than it seems.

Purchase a crate for your Mastiff puppy. The crate should be large enough so that the puppy can turn around and lie down. Don't be tempted to get a larger crate. Your Mastiff puppy may potty in one side of the crate and sleep in the other. You should put the crate in a location where you can see your puppy and he can see you. This will help in training while building a bond with you and your family, as Mastiffs are a social breed.


Place your Mastiff inside the crate with one or two toys and a bowl of water. Mastiffs are a wet-mouth breed, so water should always be made available. Chew toys are also important to keep your Mastiff puppy happy while teething. You should also put a soft mat, towel or bed in the crate for your puppy to lie on. Leave your Mastiff puppy inside the crate for short periods of time. Most puppies need to potty six times a day, so break that into 24 hours. Leave the puppy in the crate for four hours.

Take the Mastiff puppy out of the crate and affix his collar and leash. Take the puppy outside and walk him until he urinates or defecates. Do not talk to the puppy or distract him. Reward the puppy with a small treat and shower him with praise after he goes potty. Mastiffs require a fair amount of exercise, so reward your puppy with some outdoor play as well. Mastiffs were known for protecting their masters while bear and wolf hunting. A mastiff puppy may place himself between you and other people during play. This is a Mastiff's natural instinct and should not be reprimanded.

Return the Mastiff puppy to the crate for four more hours, then repeat the process of taking him outside. You must do this through the night as well, until the puppy is 12 weeks of age. Mastiffs have little to no bladder control until this age. Be consistent and stick to the training as closely as possible. Consistency is key when training this breed. Keep crate training your Mastiff puppy until he is 6 months of age or housebroken. This is because after 6 months, there are no crates large enough for a Mastiff. A male adult Mastiff can weigh up to 200 pounds. If your Mastiff is still not housebroken, continue training by keeping your Mastiff in a small room with a tall baby gate to secure him. For example, a bathroom or kitchen might work. Housebreaking a Mastiff generally takes up to a year to complete.

Tips
Clean household accidents to prevent the puppy from going potty in the same spot again. Don't leave food out all day; establish a feeding ritual of twice/day. This will help control their bowel movements.

Warnings
Never punish a puppy for an accident that has already taken place. They do not understand what they've done wrong after the fact. Do not stick your Mastiff puppy's nose in his accident. This ploy is myth that will do nothing other than making your puppy ill.

You should hold your new puppy a lot. After all, nothing is more snuggly than a soft, furry new puppy. Holding your pup bonds him to you and keeps him off the ground in places where he can be exposed to harmful diseases. While he’s in your arms, your puppy can explore lots of new sights and sounds while still feeling safe. However, you shouldn’t hold your puppy all day; sometimes he needs to sleep, play or take a break from the family.

Newborn Puppies Need Their Mom
The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals notes that it’s important not to overhandle a newborn puppy. He loses body heat easily, so he shouldn’t be away from the warmth of his mother and litter mates for long. During the first two weeks of life, you may hold your newborn pup occasionally, but keep snuggling to a minimum.

Once the puppy is 3 weeks old, his eyes and ears are open and he’s ready to be handled more. Hold him several times per day for brief snuggle sessions.

Puppies Need Lots of Love
Hold your puppy to enjoy bonding with him, as long as he’s calm and happy. During his first three months of life, socialization is critical. Introduce him to lots of different people. Let them hold and snuggle him so he’ll learn that people are nice, not scary.

Before he’s fully vaccinated, your puppy shouldn’t be allowed to walk around in public places where he can be exposed to harmful diseases. Socialize your pup by holding him in your arms and walking down the street or around the park. He’ll be able to see lots of different people and animals, and hear noises like sirens, barking dogs and loud garbage trucks -- all from the safety of your arms. This way, he’ll learn that the world is an exciting place and won’t develop social anxiety.

Puppies Can Be Overwhelmed
A young puppy can easily become overstimulated, especially when he’s just moved in with his new family. When he’s passed from one family member to the next, he may become stressed and need some quiet time alone. Your pup might react by whining, crying, nipping or trying to wriggle out of your arms. Take him to his crate and let him relax with a chew toy while he settles down.

A 12-week-old puppy needs 15 to 20 hours of sleep. If he’s overwhelmed and anxious, it might be time for a nap. Move his crate to a quiet location in the house so he can sleep. Check on him occasionally; when he’s rested he’ll want to rejoin the family.

Puppies Want to Play
Sometimes squirmy puppies don’t want to be held. Your puppy needs plenty of play and exercise, in addition to snuggle time. He needs to explore his environment, and it’s good for him to bond with you in other ways.

Take cues from your puppy’s behavior. If you try to hold him when he’d rather run around, he could develop an aversion to snuggling. Instead, play with him. Roll or throw a ball for him to chase, play with a toy or just run around the yard with him.

Alternatives to Holding Your Puppy
If your puppy is a large breed, you may not want him to become accustomed to jumping into your lap for snuggles -- especially if he’ll weigh 150 pounds when he’s grown.

Instead of holding your puppy on your lap, place him on the floor and sit next to him while you pet him. You might allow him to rest his head on your knee. Introduce your preferred method of snuggling while he’s young and maintain the same practice constantly.
It's about creating a conducive environment for their development that build them up for better dogs. Umleavyo ndivyo akuvyo,so the waswahili said.
