An adorable 10 month old baby Lexi singing with her Husky dog Angel, they seen talking, almost singing to each other, in a hilarious video that has gone viral with well over 6.5Million Views since Uploaded on Mar 14, 2011 on You Tube.
The husky seems to be responding to the baby's sounds and noises, and the baby appears to be intent on keeping the dog engaged in their 'conversation.' until the patient Husky decides to give up.
Looks (and sounds) to me more like they're communicating with each other. Not "imitating" one or the other. It's more a kind of a sing-a-long behavior. Wolves and many dogs form social bonds through group singing.(Howling.)
For the Husky's, the human puppy (baby Lexi)is making howling noises, so he or she is just joining in, for the fun of it. With the wagging tail. Baby Lexi clearly knows she is making Angel sing. The question is, does Angel know that Lexi knows, and, if so, does that mean that Angel is actually making Lexi sing?
So try it yourself, next time you meet a dog that howls, point your chin up, and make some howling sounds, and see how the dog become happy, and join in with you. you might just find it's a lot of fun. I know from my experince.
