I love howly talky dogs. Our border collies used to howl talk when we came home. Kess used to howl properly when the fire alarm went off (we lived on an island too small for a standing fire service and so an air raid siren was used when someone called in a fire so the volunteer service could gather up) - it set all the island dogs off and Kess looked so cute when he howled with his white muzzle and shiny button nose. He'd only howl if he thought no-one was looking, though, which was even cuter.
Translation:
"I wanna a milkbone!"
"I wanna a MILK... BOOOOONNNEEEEEE..."
"Haruumph. Silly bipeds keep blabbing the same thing over and over. What part of MILKBONE do they not get?"

We have a Husky, and the noises they make are NUTS. It's called "wooing" and it is absolutely hilarious.

I have family that had a husky. Whenever she wanted people to pet her she'd make that 'woo' sound. Very sweet dog.
