Dr Google by Kelsey Beth Carpenter | Dog Song Saturday


We've all done it: headed to Google to check medical symptoms. And now, thanks to Kelsey Beth Carpenter, we've got a song about it!

Today's feature at Dog Song Saturday is Dr. Google and it's a barking good original dog song!  

Carpenter is a Registered Veterinary Technician, a singer/songwriter, and the creator of the clever mime series Things Heard at an Animal Hospital.  She's at home in California with her soulmate, a 6 pound Chihuahua mix named Birdie.

Though the song is a bit silly and a lot funny, Carpenter notes:
Did you know that many animal hospitals have advice lines? Veterinary hospitals like the one I work at allow you to call and speak with a technician with any questions or concerns you may have. Not sure if your pet is experiencing a medical emergency? Call the vet! Wondering if you should use the alternative treatment your friend recommended? Call the vet! Heard a certain pet food was better than another? Call the vet! I think you're getting the idea... We want you to ask questions, to have discussions, and to do research. The more you understand about the problems your pet is experiencing, the more you can be a part of the solution. However, not all advice is good advice, and Google can be a dangerous place when it comes to medical information. We just ask that you check with your vet before making any major decisions about how to care for your pet! :)

Dr. Google Lyrics ©Kelsey Beth Carpenter

My breeder told me
Not to vaccinate
My neighbor said that
We should never spay
My groomer doesn't
Recommend flea meds
She read about them
On the Interwebs

You didn't go to Vet School
Nobody even asked you
It's too bad you don't have to
Take a test to have pets
Cause you're giving out advice
But maybe you should think twice
Cause we're dealing with real lives
Just ask your Vet, don't search the web with

Doctor Google, Doc Doctor Google

Down at the pet store
They were telling me
Not to feed byproducts
And always choose grain free
Then my dog trainer
Warned me not to buy
Treats made in China
Or else my dog would die

You didn't go to Vet School
Nobody even asked you
It's too bad you don't have to
Take a test to have pets
Cause you're giving out advice
But maybe you should think twice
Cause we're dealing with real lives
Just ask your Vet, don't search the web with

Doctor Google, Doc Doctor Google

Would you trust
The Internet
To perform surgery
On your beloved pet
I didn't think so
But didn't you know
That you can call us on the phone
To verify what you've been told

You didn't go to Vet School
Nobody even asked you
It's too bad you don't have to
Take a test to have pets
Cause you're giving out advice
But maybe you should think twice
Cause we're dealing with real lives
Just ask your Vet, don't search the web with

Doctor Google, Doc Doctor Google

Elsa's Lullaby by NEeMA | Dog Song Saturday


For today's feature on Dog Song Saturday at Talking Dogs, we've got a lullaby.
Elsa's Lullaby to be exact.

The result is Elsa's Lullaby which the musical artist describes as a song about love, a woman, and a dog.  You'll find it on her Watching You Think album which was released in 2010. 

Add Elsa's Lullaby to your dog music playlist with a purchase from iTunes, Amazon,  and other popular music outlets.

See You Again by Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth | Dog Song Saturday


Today's Dog Song Saturday featured tune has become one of our favorites.  Here at Talking Dogs we're still very much missing our Jeffie and this song speaks to our heart.

See You Again is a Wiz Khalifa song performed by singer Charlie Puth.   The song is a hip hop and pop-rap ballad written by DJ Frank E, Charlie Puth, Wiz Khalifa and Andrew Cedar.  It won Best Song at the Critics Choice and Nickelodeon Kids' Choice awards this year (2016).

Have a listen to the lyrics and we're pretty sure they'll touch your heart and inspire memories of your pets who've crossed the rainbow bridge.
So let the light guide your way, yeah
Hold every memory as you go
And every road you take, will always lead you home...

I Am Here for You by Laurel Canyon Animal Company | Dog Song Saturday @SurfDogRicochet @AnimalMusic


It's Saturday, so time for a new dog song at Talking Dogs. We've really got a good one for you today!

I Am Here For You is a collaboration between humans (The Laurel Canyon Animal Company) and a most amazing therapy dog named Surf Dog Ricochet.

They worked with animal communicator, Paula Brown who acted as a translator for Ricochet. They then used Ricochet's "reading" to create a rough song based on what they were told by Ricochet. After playing the rough for Ricochet, they then created the final version of the song based on Paula's translation.

One of the changes requested by Ricochet particularly stood out.  There was a line in the song that stated, "This is my song" and Ricochet told them that this was not a song, it was her soul. They made the appropriate changes.

A significant proportion of the profits from I Am Here For You are donated to Ricochet's non-profit organization Puppy Prodigies..  Puppy prodigies prepares dogs such as Ricochet for their future careers as service dogs. the Laurel Canyon Animal Company is proud to support Puppy Prodigies and other organizations and individuals who help animals.


Canyon Animal company creates original music about, for and with animals - especially dogs.  I Am Here For You is the first in their new series about service dogs: Therapy dogs, War dogs, Police Dogs, and more. 

Sit. Stay. Relax and enjoy I Am Here for You sung by Donna Delory.  Purchase the song here to add it to your favorite dog song playlist.

Old Dogs by Larry Garrett | Dog Song Saturday


Another Dog Song Saturday has rolled around and we've got an original song about dogs for you.  Old Dogs  was written and is performed by Larry Garrett.

Larry Garrett's music comes from the long tradition of folk music in the Kansas City area. Pulled from everyday experiences of family, childhood, "old dogs" and growing older, the Independence, Missouri, resident's songs paint a picture of life that is personal yet steeped in a musical lineage. Garrett performs regularly, usually with a guitar and harmonica, though you'll also occasionally find him with dobro, banjo, dulcimer or ukulele.

Garrett wrote this song about the dogs he and his wife have had and dedicates it to Charla, the English Bull Dog, Derek the Standard Schnauzer, Bluto, a Bull Terrier, Mickey the Westie, and Darla the Bulldog.  He further notes that "if they're not up there in heaven, I don't think I want to go."

Sit Stay. Relax and enjoy Old Dogs by Larry Garrett.    Fetch more dog songs and music videos at Talking Dogs.  You'll be surprised at how many we've collected over the years.

I've Loved You All Over the World by Willie Nelson | Dog Song Saturday


We usually stick to truly original songs about dogs here at Dog Song Saturday at Talking Dogs.  However, sometimes we run across a music video that we simply can't resist sharing.  Today is one of those days.

Listen to the lyrics of I've Loved You All Over the World by Willie Nelson and we're pretty sure you'll agree it is pretty perfect for this video celebrating a 14 year old dog's birthday.  The dog and his bestie are fulfilling a bucket list during a weekend trip of a lifetime.

The bond between a man and his dog is as strong as the Subaru Impreza according to the video. In his furry best friend's golden years, the pair finish the dog's bucket list: filling shopping carts up with tennis balls, 14 and 3/4 birthday cakes, a brand new leather shoe to chew on and fixing mends with old girlfriends and more.

Yes, it is a commerical for Subaru - the folks who've brought us some barking good dog / auto advertisements over the years.  No, we don't drive a Subaru and this is not a sponsored blog post, nor are we urging you to shop Subaru.  We just happen to love this company's ads.

Sit. Stay. Relax and enjoy Dream Weekend and the I've Loved You All Over the World by Willie Nelson soundtrack.  Fetch more dog songs and music videos at Talking Dogs.  You'll be surprised at how many we've collected over the years.

Crazy Dog Lady Lyrics ©Kelsey Beth Carpenter

I sent out a Christmas card of just my dog and me
I'll be the first to admit she's in all my selfies
My Instagram and Facebook walls are covered in her face
And if you wanna date me then you better know your place

There is no room
In my bed for you
Cause that's where
My dog sleeps, it's true
And I will never love you like I love her

All my friends are getting married and buying houses
But I'm just busy dressing up my dog in her outfits
My mama is so ready for some grandkids of her own
But I would rather Netflix and chill with my dog at home

There is no room
In my bed for you
Cause that's where
My dog sleeps, it's true
And I will never love you like I love her

You shouldn't be afraid to meet my parents
Cause it's my dog who will have to approve
If you want to get with me plan on sharing
Cause my dog and I come as a set of two

I'm the big spoon, she's the little, that's how it's always been
Having a dog is much better than having a boyfriend
Yeah, I'm the definition of a crazy dog lady
But I don't really care cause I love her and she loves me

There is no room
In my bed for you
Cause that's where
My dog sleeps, it's true
And I will never love you like I love her

I'm a French Bulldog Lyrics: ©TaylorBrown

Sitting on the couch watching the world go round
from my window, from my window
sometimes I feel like this house is like a cage that I cant escape
and it's got me trapped and I wanna open up the door but I can't
Because I don't have any thumbs and on a good day stand two foot one
and I cant reach the door nob even if I could my heads to big to balance on my back two legs
I tried to stand up straight, but then a car drove by and I chased it, yea I chased it
and thats when I remembered I'm a french bull dog
yea dont call me english, I'm a french bull dog
possibly one of the sweetest you've ever met a french bulldog
I've got to get at least 18 hours of sleep per day
and if you scratch me behind the ears I'll probably love you forever even though I'm not gay
I swear I'm not gay, yea I know what it looks like
yea I know that it looks that way but I swear Im not gay

Next time you think you've got it bad why don't you try to think a bit about me
a wild beast from the jungle at heart taken from my home and raised in captivity
I've never even met my dad, haven't seen my mom since I was only 6 weeks
and I'm fed the same damn thing every morning and night that lamb and rice don't taste nothing like meat
and if you think you can top that and still not complain and love the five dads you have all exactly the same, by licking their face and humping their legs and allowing them to give you best friend massages all day
but I'd be willing to bet a bag of bones that you have never ever been paid, to impregnate a girl because of what your papers say you fools have no idea exactly what it takes to be a french bull dog
yea dont call me english, I'm a french bull dog
guaranteed the sweetest you'll ever meet a french bulldog
I've got to get at least 18 hours of sleep per day
and if you scratch me behind the ears I'll probably love you forever even though I'm not gay
I swear I'm not gay, yea I know what it looks like
yea I know that it looks that way but I swear Im not gay
I'm a french bulldog, I might be a little small, but I swear I'm not gay,
I'm gonna take a nap, a nap is where its at
Whooaaaaaaa

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS FOOD LYRICs ©The Pet Collective
I Think that it's Christmas
There's a wreath outside our door
It's my favorite time of season
There's wrapping paper on the floor

But I have one too many toys
Bones and ropes and some make noise
I've eaten enough shoes
All I want for Christmas
Is fooooood

I don't want a lot this Christmas
Just a bit more table food
Don't you make me start barking
Cuz your guests will think I'm rude
I won't ask a lot for Christmas
You can keep all of my gifts
I just want my bowl to be full
My belly can handle it

Sausage, turkey, cake and pie
Do I want a breast or thigh?
I'll have them all...in twos
All I want for Christmas is food!

Oh the table's set
And food is everywhere
I'll just help myself
And sample here and there
And everyone is screaming
Is this macaroni 3 cheeses ?
This all tastes so good!
I shouldn't but I should!

I don't need a lot this Christmas
Anyhow, It's only food
Christmas Ham won't make me happy
Yams won't put me in the mood

Though I have one too many toys
Bones and ropes and some make noise
I am grateful to
Share another Christmas
with
You

Echoing in the night
Hear those Huskies woo and sing?
A mushing song tonight

Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to Hike
in our husky powered sleigh!
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to Hike
in our husky powered sleigh!

New Fresh Fallen Snow
The kind the huskies like
They Know it's time to go
It's time to Hike Hike Hike
They take off on their run
Their joy is such a sight
They woo and bark and have some fun
As they Mush into the night

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to Hike
in our husky powered sleigh!
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to Hike
in our husky powered sleigh!

Huskies Sing a Song
They bark and woo with glee
They know the time has come
Their Sled and snow the see
When the Ground turns white
The Huskies want to go
Ha for Left Gee For Right
To Slow down just say Whoa!

Corgi Dog Song The True Prince of Wales by Nancy Simmonds | Dog Song Saturday


You shopped until you dropped yesterday, so take some time to relax today with a dog song!

We have another original dog song by Nancy Simmonds for you this Dog Song Saturday.  Today we're celebrating the Welsh Corgi dog breed with The True Prince of Wales.

We love Simmonds and we're pretty sure she's written more songs about dogs than any other musician.  In fact, we've lost count of the number of songs she's written dedicated to a specific dog breed.  Luckily she's counted them for us: over 110 purebred dog songs since the early 1990's!

Her Musical Tails series of songs is available from iTunes  Each song is designed to reflect the individual personality, temperament and history of the breed.

Grab a dog to snuggle.  A Corgi if you've got one!  Sit. Stay. Relax and enjoy The True Prince of Wales by Nancy Simmonds.

Scroll down below the delightful Corgi video (also made by Simmonds) for the lyrics so you can sing along.  Then fetch more dog song music videos here at Talking Dogs.  Every Saturday we feature original music written about dogs and the music videos are barking good!



The True Prince of Wales  ©NancySimmonds

You can kick up your feet, you can kick up your legs,
Kickin' up dust can't keep me away.
I'm under your heels and over the ground
Wherever you turn I can turn you around.
Standing high on a hill over the sea
I'm the true Prince of Wales and the Queen loves me.
I earned my place in history and they call me -
Corgi -
Deedle dum deedle deedle deedle dee
Deedle deedle deedle dee -
Corgi
I can clear the path and scatter the herd,
Spread 'em far and wide across the earth.
The whistle blows one high one low,
As long as I hear that whistle I go.
Standing high on a hill over the sea
I'm the true Prince of Wales and the Queen loves me.
I earned my place in history and they call me -
Corgi -
Deedle dum deedle deedle deedle dee
Deedle deedle deedle dee -
Corgi

From Cardinganshire to Pembroke, Wales
They love me with or without a tail.
From the hillsmen up through royalty
I deeply love my family.
Standing high on a hill over the sea
I'm the true Prince of Wales and the Queen loves me.
I earned my place in history and they call me -
Corgi -
Deedle dum deedle deedle deedle dee
Deedle deedle deedle dee -
Corgi

Adopt #SeniorDog Lilly a #Pitbull Mix @WaysideWaifs in #KCMO


This beautiful senior girl is Lilly.  She is a 10 year old Pit Bull Terrier mix. Animal shelter staff and volunteers report that Lilly is a sweet soul. She loves to go for walks, play with balls and toys, plus she's smart and eager to please. 

Be sure to watch Lilly's adoption video. Note: it was filmed well over a year ago. Lilly has been waiting for a home for a very long time.

Here's Lilly's adoption message:
Hi there, I'm Lilly! I am such a simple, sweet soul, just longing for the love of a forever family. I promise not to ask for much...just a quiet life with you by my side would mean the world to me. I try so hard not to lose hope or feel down that I'm homeless once again. But I'm one of those dogs who never seem to be able to catch a break in life. I know that happens with people too, so I don't mean to complain. I try my best to look forward and have faith that this is where I am meant to be in order to finally find you.

I'm a laidback, easygoing, senior dog, weighing in at 48 pounds of solid muscle and love. I'm already housebroken, but please be patient with me when we get home, as I get used to my new routine with you. I have been through a lot in my life. I lost one home because my breed wasn't welcome in the city I lived in. I spent months at Wayside, searching for a new family. And I was eventually adopted, but my owner couldn't care for me. It was a stressful time for all of us and I was treated harshly in that home. That's why I flinch at times when you approach me now. I'm a loyal and loving dog, so this time around I am looking for a kind and gentle person to share my life with.

I'm sort of a rock star here at Wayside and I'm proud to say that the volunteers love me! They make me feel so special and cared for. I love to go out for walks and I enjoy my exercise time. It helps me to stay happy and healthy. I do pull on my leash sometimes, but a harness works just great for me. And I love to play with balls and toys. I'm smart and eager to please, so I'm always open to learning new things. Please use positive reinforcement with me, by praising me when I am a good girl, because I respond very well to that. I'm sort of an independent gal, so I promise not to bother you for constant attention. But when you want me, just call my name and I will be there! I'm affectionate and cuddly and super sweet. I love to be by your side, curled up next to you on the couch or just in the same room with you. I just like to know that you're there. I'm chilled out and relaxed in a home or car or fenced in yard.

Since I'm looking for a quiet and calm home without a lot going on, I think I'll be happiest in a home without kids under the age of at least 5. And I can be picky about my dog friends, but I tend to do best with other low energy dogs. Or I'd love to be your only dog as well! Why don't you just plan to bring the whole family out to meet me and we'll see how we all get along.

I'm not sure why finding my forever family has been so elusive for me. I'm a wonderful dog with so much to offer. I will make a loyal, devoted companion to you for the rest of my life. I'd love to make up for lost time and find the perfect new home where we can just hang out and appreciate each other. I don't need adventure or much to do...I just need you. I hope you need me too!
Love, Lilly

For Jeffie - I Miss You by Justine Bennett | Dog Song Saturday

For those of you who came here the past two Saturdays looking for a new dog song, I apologize. My sweet boy, Jeffie, was in the fight for his life and dog songs were the last thing on my mind.

Jeffie lost his battle with Leptospirosis and liver failure on Monday, October 26, 2015.  Today's dog song is for him.

I Miss You was written and is performed by Justine Bennett.  The video was put together several years ago by Owen Reeves in honor of his dog, Jasmine.  You'll see a great many dogs in it because the photos were contributed to this project.

Grab some tissues.  Sit. Stay. Join us as we pay tribute to all of our furry friends. Scroll down below the video to find the lyrics.



I Miss You lyrics - ©Justine Bennett
I miss you like summer days oh
Clouds of may, how I miss you
And I miss you like dancing in the rain oh
Every day oh, every day

I miss you like the night without a moon oh
A flower with no bloom, how I miss you
And I miss you like the warmth of the sun
You shine on everyone, everyone

And nothing will ever be the same
Nothing will ever be the same again
Nothing, nothing

But it oughtta be
But it oughtta be
But it oughtta be

And nothing will ever be the same
Nothing will ever be the same again
Nothing

But it oughtta be
But it oughtta be
But it oughtta be

Oh it oughtta be oh, it oughtta be oh
It oughtta be oh, every day
Oh it oughtta be oh, it oughtta be oh
It oughtta be oh, every day

And I miss you like summer days oh
Clouds of May...
How I miss you

Say Yes to These Ears and Adopt Marshall an #AustralianShepherd Dog @HSMO in #Missouri


UPDATE: Marshall has been adopted!

This adorable guy is Marshall.  He's a blue merle and white Australian Shepherd mix and only about one year old.  Admit it - it's hard to say no to those ears!

Marshall needs a new home that is quiet and a new best friend who has lots of patience.  He came from a very rough situation and is fearful of people and new situations.  Marshall needs to learn that the world isn't always a bad frightening place.

Take a look at Marshall's video and then contact the Humane Society of Missouri at 314-951-1562 for more information.  Marshall's animal ID number is A598590. He's at their St Louis City animal shelter.



Since 1870, the Humane Society of Missouri has been dedicated to second chances.  They provide a safe and caring haven to animals - large and small - that have been abused, neglected or abandoned.  Their mission is to end the cycle of abuse and overpopulation, assist in creating lasting relations hips between people and animals, offer world-class veterinary care, plus offer pet obedience and behavior programs.

HSMO operates three animal shelters in the St Louis, Missouri, area, plus Longmeadow Rescue Ranch in Union, Missouri, for abused and neglected horses, cows, goats, chickens and other farm animals.

We are participating in the Tuesday's Tails blog hop hosted by Dogs N Pawz and Talking Dogs.  This is the blog hop that features shelter pets.  Find a pet at your local animal shelter or rescue and join us!  Please help spread the word about these beautiful animals via social media and let's find them forever homes!
