This Is a Hoot! (Or Should I Say 'Howl'?)

"As a single song, the gimmick of "singing" dogs is a real hoot. Don't get me wrong, I never grow tired of hearing Nat "King" Cole singing "The Christmas Song" or Bing Crosby singing "White Christmas," but every once in a while you need to lighten up. I highly recommend this song as one of the great Christmas novelty songs of all time. But do not--I repeat--do NOT make the mistake of thinking more is better. The full length albums of singing dogs or cats or frogs or deranged weasels does not get funnier the more times you repeat the gag...it doesn't. Buy this single and then promise you'll stop."
