Cody and Sierra on “Anderson” with Anderson Cooper

This was posted on Adam's Auto Advice on December 27, 2011 but I thought I should share it here.

Yesterday Sierra, Cody, my Mom and I appeared on Anderson Cooper's new daytime talk show, Anderson, on national TV! It was quite amazing to see ourselves on TV with Anderson Cooper. It was sort of surreal, “Was that real?”

Then I flashed back to when we actually went up to New York City for the taping and remembered talking with Anderson Cooper. That was real!

When you see yourself on national TV though, you realize a lot of people will see this! My immediate thoughts when I saw myself on TV were, “Is that really me?” You tend to have an outer image of what you think you look like. When you see a picture of yourself you are not crazy about you rationalize, “Oh well, nobody will see this!”

I was pleased with how the whole segment turned out. You are kind of afraid that maybe you did something odd or stupid, and did not realize it. Then it will be shown on TV! I thought my playing was good, and Sierra's singing was wonderful. It looked like Cody was going to sing, but I guess he wasn't in the mood. He had such a stoic and proud look when Sierra was singing. He's got a great voice as well, but maybe he just wanted Sierra to have the spotlight.

At least I was happy I able to keep my composure. I was also happy that the dogs behaved and that they looked very nice on TV. The baths definitely helped!

When the segment aired Cody watched intently like he usually does when dogs are on TV. However, this time he was watching himself. Sierra did something pretty hilarious. When she heard herself on TV, she vocalized softly while lying down on the bed through the entire song. It was great!

If you missed the Anderson segment yesterday, don't worry. It has already been posted on the Anderson website. Click here, to watch it. The segment did not show our full Auld Lang Syne video. Check out the SingingDogsRock Youtube Channel for additional videos.

In Baltimore it was on NBC at 2pm, but other people told me it was on Fox and CBS. People also wrote emails saying the show aired at 9am and 10am in some parts of the country. I don't know how TV works these days!

I hope this leads to more opportunities for us. I have consulted with Sierra and Cody and they would like to use their musical gifts to help animals in need.

Please visit National English Shepherd Rescue (NESR), if you want to learn more about English Shepherds. Maybe you would even like to adopt one to love and cherish.

Jasmine the Havanese Dog Assistant

With Cody and Sierra being somewhat well known dogs these days, I am always finding and connecting with new talented dogs on YouTube and around the internet. One such dog is a Havanese named Jasmine that is a pretty good personal (dog) assistant.

As you can see CJ, Jasmine's owner, has taught Jasmine quite an impressive arsenal of dog tricks. Jasmine's most useful dog trick, or helpful chore, is getting clothes out of the dryer. Don't you wish your dog could do that ?

Jasmine and CJ have made numerous TV appearances which include being on Good Morning America, and Animal Planet “Who Let The Dogs Out She was also featured on Anderson too, which is something my dogs know about!”

For even more dog tricks watch “Jasmine's Dog Trick Resume” below. Some of my favorite tricks Jasmine does are Push Shopping Cart, Play the Piano, Say Your Prayers, Take off Sock,and Ring the Bell.

Jasmine is the same breed (Havanese) as Wolfie Cody and Sierra's dog cousin. Of course Wolfie doesn't quite have as many dog tricks up his sleeve as Jasmine .

Cody and Sierra can't do these tricks but it would be awesome to teach them. Having helpful dogs around the house doing chores would be useful and fun. At least they are “singing dogs” and they are musically talented.

For more info and to keep updated with Jasmine and CJ visit their website MyFavoritePup.

Singing Dogs have the Blues!

We haven't made any videos in awhile, but this is a short and sweet video brought to you by Singing Dogs which should put a smile on peoples faces for Labor Day Weekend.

I love the playing the blues on my saxophone but not as much as Cody and Sierra like singing to the blues it seems! For some reason anytime I play these notes and this blues scale they both sing. I guess we will work on a song that we can all enjoy.

We hope everyone has a nice Labor Day! 🙂

Singing Puppy and Dogs Improvise the Blues

It's a blistering hot day here in Baltimore but Sierra, Scout, and Cody have a good way to keep cool, by singing the Blues! That's right it seems all three of these English Shepherds are fans of the blues. Maybe they have the blues because of the heat and are not playing outside today. I don't know! I can only tell you I love playing the blues with them! 🙂

Cody did sing but unfortunately he wasn't in the field of view for the video. You can still hear his nice deep bass voice though.

Sierra Teaches a Puppy How To “Sing”

Currently Cody, Sierra, and our musical family are fostering a great English Shepherd Puppy named Scout. This guy is smart, sweet, sensitive and… is also a singer! That means we now have a Dog Singing Trio! 🙂

Sierra, the dog diva, gave Scout a singing lesson. If you watch the video below you can clearly see he is watching Sierra and trying to mimic her singing. Of course Sierra thinks nobody can match her singing. After all she is a “Dog Diva!”

Cody actually first gave Scout a singing lesson, but we didn't get that on video. Scout seemed to react well to Cody's deeper singing voice. Cody is also singing in this video too but we couldn't get him in the frame with the other singing dogs. You will have to listen carefully.
