Canine Christmas carols, part deux

That’s right, I’m referencing a Charlie Sheen movie from 1993. What of it?

Anyway, it’s time for another caroldy installment. After all, caroldies are the reason for the season (or so I’ve heard). First, I’d like to share my new favorite caroldy, composed by Kristine from Rescued Insanity. She gave Wham’s Last Christmas the caroldy treatment, and it is amazing and awesome. Go read it.

(Wham!’s? How the heck do I make a band name ending in an exclamation point possessive? Oh, grammar gods, I need your help.)

Up next, a few caroldies shared in the comments last week

The first caroldy is courtesy of Pamela from Something Wagging This Way Comes.

Here Come Puppy Dogs

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

Next, Jodi from Heart Like a Dog has us barking around the Christmas tree.

Barkin’ Around the Christmas Tree

Barkin’ around the Christmas tree
it’s a puppy party hop
Bitey face, wrestling merrily
The puppies find it hard to stop

You will get a really eerie feeling when you see
a leg lift high to mark the holly,
drop your drink and grab that collie!

Finally, here’s my entry for this week – a canine version of a classic. (Thanks to Mel from No Dog About It for the suggestion.)

O Howly Night

O howly night,
The dogs are lightly whining,
As in the night, they beg for a kibble berth.
Long wait the pups for the time of canine dining,
Till you appear with a can they deem of worth.
A thrill of hope. the hungry dog rejoices,
For yonder comes food on this glorious morn.
And oh, there’s cheese! Oh, such fine culinary choices!
O food divine, the path to the bowl is worn;
O night, O howly night, O food divine!
O night, O howly night, O food divine!

That’s all for today. As always, I encourage you to share your own caroldies in the comments or request one you’d like to see here. (And if you are not a caroldy fan, just remember that Christmas will be here in two weeks, and then you’re safe for another year.)
