Dog Hilariously Howls When Asked If He Needs To

An adorable video of a dog prompted to howl by his mom is capturing the hearts of dog lovers. In the cute clip, Leo the dog is sitting on the couch contemplating something when his mom, Cass Downey interrupts his reverie to ask “Leo, do you need to howl?”

He seems momentarily confused, as if he was remembering that, “yes mom, as a matter of fact, I do need to howl.” So, within seconds, Leo stands up, prepares himself, and lets out a wonderful howl that raises in pitch as he continues.

Watch his “pitch perfect pawformance” below:

People can’t get enough of the video of Leo and his howling, which Cass originally posted to her TikTok account @cassdowney. Some fans pointed out Leo’s “lil warm up.”

Another commented, “I like that Leo was all ‘all right let me get ready'” with another observing, “He had to stand up to do it.”

Here’s the original TikTok:

Once he got into it, it was clear to others that Leo does enjoy singing. “The look of satisfaction after his pawformance,” commented one viewer on Instagram.

“I too enjoy screaming into the void from time to time,” said another fan on TikTok.

Cass posted a cute “round two” video after the first video went viral.

Of Leo’s second howl, one viewer wrote from Leo’s point of view, “‘So glad you asked. I’ve been holding this one in for hours.'”
