I was very interested in your posts as i have just discovered that himselfs dog is howling when we go out. Neighbours have toild me. also the other day himself went out and the dog howled, a horrible whaling, even though i was upstairs, what a fright i got. He is a very loved dog and the radio is left on for him. when we go out he knows we are about to go and he runs up the stairs and lies at the top of the stairs. Maybe he is too loved and spoiled. Not sure what to do about this howling. He doesnt chew or damage anything and has my cat for company.
