Anybody have any howling dogs?

I have a German shepherd lab mix, who will howl most nights at the coyotes. Over these last few months he has really perfected is howl to very wolf like. I am just wondering if anybody else has dogs that howl.

My Husky/Lab mix howls often. It's usually when he's alone, and sometimes when I go take care of my flock.

Does it sound like a howl? Or like a prolonged bark? Buddy started like a really long bark and then (like a rooster leaning to crow) got better and better and now it sounds like there as a timber wolf on our porch.

My beagles howl a lot. They howl at the coyotes, at the sirens or trains passing by, and when they are bored. They have different sounding howls for their different occasions.

My Auggie (Australian Shepherd Corgi mix) will howl sometimes, but only if our German Shepherd starts barking.

Yes. Very. Sometimes it starts out with him whinning and he goes into a howl. He does, rarely, bark with his howl, but that's usually when there's a sound he's annoyed by. (For whatever reason car alarms get him to howl?) He's very good at howling, and howl's at least once everyday, and often a few times a day.

During coyote breeding season he'll howl every night sometimes for twenty mins at a time.

He somtimes will bark and it will morph into a howl. and it sounds really creepy, and kinda lonely.

Does it sound higher pitch like bantam rooster's crows?

Wow, cool! The coyotes are too far away for my dog to hear. But I do occasionally hear people's dogs in the distance howling to them. Maybe they're howling to them? Someone that lives over there has said that he hears the coyotes.
