Puppylicious

Last week I created a post entitled "Meowtastic Music" which was all about songs that had to do with cats. In this post we are going to look at music that is all about puppies and dogs. I only have cats as pets now, but growing up I had a poodle named "Sparkles". Here we are together in the picture on the right!

Parts of a Dog (Tune: Wheels on the Bus)

The tail on the dog goes wag wag wag,

wag, wag, wag,

wag, wag, wag

The tail on dog goes wag wag wag

Dog starts with D

The nose on the dog goes sniff sniff sniff...

The ears on the dog go flip and flop...

How much is that Doggie in the Window

(Patti Page recorded this song on December 18, 1952. It went number 1 in the US Billboard magazine charts and stayed there for 8 weeks.

How much is that doggie in the window is loosely build on the folk tune "Carnival in Venice" and "Oh Where or Where has my little dog gone". Can you hear the similarities?

The "Oh Where or where did my Little dog go" comes from a song written in 1864 by American songwriter, Septimus Winner called "Der Deitcher's Dog" and it was set to a German Folk Tune.

Listen to Chopin's Minute Waltz, also known as the "Dog Waltz". Imagine a dog chasing his own tail. Listen for when the music slows down because the dog is tired and needs a little rest, but then the chase starts again.
