Morning dog walk is a good time to hum tunes. Pongo and I came up with this one, following on the theme from Shadow's ode to food. Pongo says it is called "Christmas Dinner" and it goes to the tune of "Hark the Herald Angels Sing". Hark the Hungry Puppy Sings, Wondering what his dinner brings; Beef or turkey, whole or carved? He's not fussy, he's just STARVED. Finest lamb or basic kibble, Both will make my puppy dribble, Both will make my puppy drool, 'Cos his tummy's NEVER full. Hark, the hungry puppy sings, Wondering what his dinner brings.
Pongo comes and lies on my feet, I'm pretty sure it is because he thinks I am in pain and need comforting.
Haha, fab! Although I'm a little sad we didn't get a video this time, preferably of Pongo drooling This would be true of me, but you have a lovely voice
<blush> thank you. It is less lovely when shrieking "Pongo come back here you little ****" across the fields.
I am going to memorize your song.....so I can sing it to Cooper......I DO believe they understand everything and anything that relates to food!!!
Pongo and I have been working out his version of the Twelve Days of Christmas. This is very personal to Pongo, of course.... other pups on this forum might well have other special requests, but my guess is that there will be some common ground. It would be too long to write out the whole thing, so here is how we think the last verse goes, you can figure out the rest... On the Twelfth Day of Christmas my humans gave to me: Twelve Tickled Tummies Eleven Games of Tuggy Ten Comfy Cushions Nine Ponds for Swimming Eight Cardboard Boxes Seven Empty Bottles Six Muddy Puddles FIVE JUICY BONES!!!! Four Bouncy Balls Three Long Walks Two Special Treats And a Roast Turkey under the Tree! Would your doggies agree?
Ha ha ha,do you remember Dexter's jingle bells last Xmas? This could be a great thread for December and our run up to Xmas.... 'Forum Christmas Labrols' Or 'Caroldors by Forum Light' I'm amused anyway !!!!
http://thelabradorforum.com/threads/the-great-forum-christmas-cheer-challenge.12911/page-5 There were some brilliant messages and songs in this last year....I definately think a musical theme would be the best fun ever this year. Xxx
Pongo said we had to add a couple of verses to his "Hark the Hungry Puppy Sings" Christmas Dinner song, because he wanted it to have a happy ending for his forum friends. He is thoughtful like that. So here is the completed version. Hark the Hungry Puppy Sings, Wondering what his dinner brings; Beef or chicken, whole or carved? He's not fussy, he's just STARVED. Finest lamb or basic kibble, Both will make my puppy dribble, Both will make my puppy drool, 'Cos his tummy's NEVER full. Hark, the hungry puppy sings, Wondering what his dinner brings. Pongo knows there's something up Because he's an observant pup. Little people everywhere - Sitting on his favourite chair!!! Tree indoors, but not for marking; Postie, parcels, lots of barking; Busy kitchen - looking good! (Usually that results in Food.) Hark, the Hungry Puppy Sings, Wondering what his dinner brings. Pongo stares! "What's this I see? Is that REALLY all for me?" Roasted turkey in a dish! Sweet potatoes! Bits of fish! Gravy rivers, warm and steaming! (Pongo thinks he must be dreaming) Cheese and biscuits! Ice-cream too! Every Pongo-wish come true. Happy puppy now at rest; Christmas Dinner is the BEST!
Bravo,Rosie and Pongo,now please a video of you both performing the whole piece! That really is funny.....thank you for starting the run up to Xmas so early, I'm terrible for doing that.....we are having a big party at our house on 1st December and with a set of UK visitors around the same time and a trip back that I'm doing myself .....my Xmas decorations going up are diaried for ,wait for it.....November 27th .....Thats pretty poor I know! But Christmas does start early in Doobs! X
I'm really soppy about Christmas, I love it all - and actually I hate it when it starts early! But at the same time, I'm in a choir and of course we've already started rehearsals for Christmas concert, so the tunes have started going round and round in my head and they sort of come out on Pongowalks.....
Hey, SW walkers..... what about doing a video on 13th November of group singsong of a forum carol? @Hollysdad @Beanwood @Naya and anyone else who is coming? (If anyone can use a camera better than me, that is....)
Excellent! We should choose a carol (what about a version of the 12 days of Christmas?). Or maybe we should take requests....
