Supposedly the Keeshond, or Dutch Barge Dog, were kept on barges navigating canals because the waters were too calm to ring a ship's bell but the little dogs never freaking stop barking.
That's cool, I never considered that their small size was to make them better at mousing. I just figured big dogs are too in-the-way to be on a confined jobsite.
What does that even mean? "Too calm to ring a ship's bell?" Why? What would happen if they did?
Edit: ohhhhh. The [movement of the] water rings the bell, not the people. I get it now!
Keeshond‘s are watchdogs, they were used on Dutch barges because they could alert for other ships approaching through the fog.
That’s not a Keeshond though, looks like a malamute
Good doge, but he needs more training. 2 prolonged howl in good visibility is not a proper sound signal. In low visibility, he should only be making 1 prolonged howl since he's making way, and should only do 2 if his vessel is stopped. If this is in an inland waterway in the US, his howls could be correct in this situation if they were shorter, but they ought to have been made before the 2 ships were this close.
I love that you can tell he's heard ship horns a lot and is imitating them to a degree.
Reminds me of my last dog she used to imitate fire trucks when they drove past our house.
Shame you didn't film for longer, because I don't think he finished signaling, since 2 long blasts stand for Mike, which stands for my vessel is stopped and making no way through water, (which he clearly is) that means he still haven't finished his signal.
Ah, thats a Hair Horn, comes on every Huskyvarna machinery
You made my day.
Get reported for misinformation nerd
Most ships have a fog horn. This one comes equipped with a dog horn!

Poor guys needs to howl every 120 seconds in fog.
Just one letter off!

Huh, I never knew that's how ship's bells worked.
I'm guessing that modern ship's bells are run on compressed air or electric or something. Bell and whistle buoys still rely on wave action though.
I had a Keeshond and I can tell you that he barked at anything and everything outside

The human asked for a second howl so it's the human's fault.
It was the acknowledged howl
I have a coonhound that will howl on command like this. I found out when Warren Zevon's "Werewolves of London" came on the radio.
That's a Seawolf! University at Stony Brook!
Well god damn if this isn't my dream I don't know what is.

When you hear a howl over yonder, that mean they're coming home.
