Dog called Prince will only howl to his namesake's hits

http://www.ananova.com/ne...artwarmers Dog called Prince will only howl to his namesake's hits

A German Shepherd called Prince likes 'singing' along to the hits of his namesake. Staff at the National Canine Defence League in Leeds have been highly amused by his renditions of Purple Rain, Cream and Pink Cashmere. It started when he began howling, in tune, to Prince's hit Let's Go Crazy, but he wouldn't howl along to any other tunes.

Now whenever they want to entertain any of the other dogs, staff put on a Prince record, reports the Yorkshire Evening Post.

The five-year-old German Shepherd, was brought in as a stray by Leeds City Council. He suffers from a common German Shepherd ailment - hip dysplasia - and needed a major operation to his back leg.

Maybe she could hook up with the cat that runs Paisley Park... then put out a record. Hell, they put Tony M on a record, how much worse can a warbling german shepard be?

If the dog looks like Prince too - he could double for him. How tall is the dog?

I had a neighbor back in the late 70s that had a German Shepherd named "Prince."
