You know, I almost used this post title in the past. However, I chickened out. This year, I’m chickening in instead. (Is that the opposite of chickening out?)
In any event, I thought I’d kick things off with the first caroldy of the year. Pretend I’m singing it to you. (If you need to jog your memory, here’s the tune.)

Be glad I’m not actually singing to you, as it would probably just hurt your ears. I really need a singer and director on my staff to take these to the next level. However, first I need a staff. It’s a real chicken and egg problem (or something). Anyway…
Joy to the World (Dog Edition)
Joy to the world! My owner’s home.
Let her fill up my bowl.
Let’s take a walk, around the block,
When lots of things I’ll be sniffing,
When lots of things I’ll be sniffing,
When lots and lots of things I’ll be sniffing.
Joy to the world! A brand new bone.
Let me chew upon it please.
While you watch TV, I’ll chew loudly,
You won’t hear a single word,
You won’t hear a single word,
You won’t hear, hear, a single word.
So, now it’s your turn. What songs deserve the caroldy treatment this year? The Greatest Hits CD so far includes:
- Hark! The Puppies are Playing
- Here We Come a Sniff-Sniffing
- Deck the Bowls
- I Saw Three Cats
- I Saw Puppies Kissing Santa Claws
- Bella the Snowdog
- It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas (Dog Edition)
- Barkin’ Around the Christmas Tree
- Sleigh Ride Revisited
- Jingle Goats
Share your requests in the comments, add some more verses to the song above, or hit me with some caroldies of your own!
Too cute! You really need to do a compilation album with all those!
Ha, chickening in. Love it!

If only I could sing… 😉
That was awesome. I suspect you are the cleverest of my blogging friends. I wish I were as witty. 🙂
Song caroldies? Hmmmm… Easy or hard?
Deck the Halls?
O Holy Night?
Grandma got run over by a reindeer?

I doubt that – there are some clever bloggers out there! 🙂
Oooh… I’m already formulating a plan for at least one of those – good suggestions!
Here come puppy dogs, Here come puppy dogs
Right down dog park lane
Schnauzers and boxers, And all the mixed breeds
Sniffing the great Dane
Dogs are barking, Owners are larking
All is merry and bright
Get your leash out and chew your Kong
‘Cause puppy dogs play tonight
I am so grateful that you keep sharing the true lyrics so these holiday songs can be sung the way they were meant to be sung.
I’m almost as grateful as your not chickening out on the doggie style thing. Maybe it will take some pressure off Something Wagging for sexy dog talk. 🙂

I didn’t mean to horn in on your sexy dog niche. Hope you don’t mind too much. Hehe.
Love your caroldy!
so cute! Now make a video of you singing it!

But I’d hurt your ears!
Yes! I have been waiting for this. You know it is time for the holiday season when Pup Love starts writing caroldies!
I’ve had “Last Christmas” in my head all day. Care to give Wham a try?

I will always say yes to Wham. Always.
That is awesome. How about something with the little drummer boy. Maybe……The little humper boy?? LOL
