How to make your dog laugh?
I was reading an article last night and found these instructions. For a laugh (ahem) I decided to try it. I got a good reaction from Nita, she was dozing when I tried it, she woke up and came and jumped on me. For a bit of fun, give it a go.
How To Make Your Dog Laugh
Humans can imitate sounds of dog laughter, but it takes conscious monitoring of mouth shape to get the sound pattern right. Producing dog laughter correctly, says Coren, can make your dog sit up, wag his tail, approach you from across the room, and even laugh along.
1 Round your lips slightly to make a “hhuh” sound. Note: The sound has to be breathy with no actual voicing, meaning that if you touch your throat while making this sound, you should not feel any vibration.
2 Use an open-mouthed smiling expression to make a “hhah” sound. Again, breathe the sound; do not voice it.
3 Combine steps one and two to create canine laughter. It should sound like “hhuh-hhah-hhuh-hhah.”

LOL we should all try this tonight and report back tomorrow! I think Axl will probably run out the room but I'll definitely give it a go!

Re: How to make your dog laugh?
I've always done that with Bo, I didn't know anybody else knew about it. Mostly when I do it he looks left and right and then, if I'm still doing it, rushes off to find a toy to play tug with. He doesn't laugh, though, but I can make him smile by massaging his shoulders. He pulls his lips back and his eyes go huge and round.
