noises she makes

Does anyone elses dog sound like that dude from star wars? chewbaka? We were in the vets the other day and she said she knew it was a staffy waiting as they are the only dogs that makes them sounds...very cute though x

I think I know what you mean, a kind of cross between a lion roaring and Charlie from the BBC information programs "Charlie Says, never talk to strangers etc."

It's Tommy up and dressed, he barks angry at the window cleaner through the office window and then does Charlie says by my side when I'm on the pc ignoring him

Thats exactly what it is, a cross between growling and 'charlie says'...is it just an attention seeking noise, as much as attnetion seeking by jumping on you? x

I call it yowling and for us it's only Tommy that does it and I would say for me it was definitely attention seeking

these 2 do it when play fighting it is funny

I think it's just a noise that Staffords do - I think it's rather cute!

Tilly cries in a real girly way and Tommy yeowls in a real girly way , Staffs are just a big soft bunch of girls really , you would only jhave to see Tilly's face today when she got anxious about walking through a huge patch of mud to realise that

oh and I love my girls to bits BTW

I love my Louby Lou, only had her about 6 weeks and i wouldnt be without her x

Loki makes all the sounds in the animal kingdom his latest addition to his wide array of sounds is mooing. It's always attention-seeking when he does it

Yes Rocky does the mooing too, sooo funny. When we are in the car he does sounds like a collard dove cooing too.

very common sound in our house

I wonder, has anyone ever heard their Staff make an unusual chirping sound, sort of like a cross between a dolphin and a bird of some kind?

It's definitely a 'sad' noise, she often makes it if she's left outside in the garden for longer than she'd like, if she feels (I assume) like she's been forgotten about.

Ah, Edie makes that noise. it's her quiet 'oh.... I want to go in the living room. Have you forgotten me?"

she also whinnies like a horse which is her louder 'can you hear me? I WANT to go in the living room!'

followed by screaming 'Let me in the bl**dy living room!!!!!!!!'

When she wants to incite another dog to play she bounces around the dog going A WAA WAA WAA, a sort of donald duck noise...

very funny.

And if we move the other dog up out of her way onto our lap she will make all sorts of funny noises, just like a whole conversation... 'come down and play with me now pleeeaase, now, now, Ohhhhh! '

Yes, it's one of the many cries/whines/whimpers that Loki makes. I always half-laugh and half pity him

Mine also does one like an ambulance just before he launches in a kissing binge. I think they all mean different things as I can at least spot the one that's for going outside to pee and the attention-seeking ones

I love most of the sounds Taz makes, especially the sexy/husky grunt, the only thing I don't like is her snuffling/snaffling grunty piggy noise, (like she makes when she's having a good old clean of her lady parts)....

its funniest when she makes a noise and we copy her - she really doesnt like that, she gets all offended and starts jumping on us and biting us (not that we condone this sort of behaviour??) x

yeh Taz dont like her noises played back to her on video either, but who likes copycat parrots anyway ?

Oooh they make all sorts of funny noises eh! Don't know another breed like it, Biscuit actually "moo's" when she's happy! Silly thing

And, she always has a bone in her mouth, its almost like a comfort blanket to her, but she always tries to bark with it in her mouth!! makes the strangest sounds x
