Doorbell sounds in teevee ads

[Sparkly]

Do they have any idea what they're doing when they put doorbell sounds in teevee ads? Does anyone else have dogs?!

1. Or sounds that mimic my cellphone ringtone...

Grrrrr

2. My sheltie would go crazy

and that drove me crazy when it was just a doorbell on tv.

3. The beagle has learned to calm down if I say, "It's on TV."

What irritates me is commercials on the radio with sirens. I always turn the volume down to figure out if it's real or not.

4. My dogs don't care

They might glance up, but otherwise they don't care.

7. My second dog, first beagle, was a retired hunting dog. He'd never lived in a house

before I adopted him. So, doorbells meant nothing to him. He never did make the connection between that sound and strangers at the door. If only all dogs were so oblivious. But alas...they can't all be beagles.

5. Bella goes nuts when she hears a TV doorbell.

Sometimes, I rewind the TIVO just to torment her. She'll bark while asleep if she hears a "ding-dong" sound on the tube.

6. My retarded shepard mix

barks at everything. He will walk up to the wall and go off because it is in his way. The last eight years with him has been so much fun.

11. Your cat wears pants?

[Skittles]

12. it's GRAYWARRIOR, Sparkly

there's no telling what kind of garb she's making her cat wear

[SeattleGirl]

13. Well, at least she's not making the cat wear a burkha!

:scared:





:rofl:





(I think I spelled that wrong.......:hide: )

[Skittles]

15. we don't KNOW that, SeattleGirl

I have my suspicions I tell you.......I'll just go ahead and kick some graywarrior ass - yes INDEED

[graywarrior]

18. ...

:rofl:

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

16. Her cat might wear kilts

who knows?

[Richardo]

14. Depends on the doorbell...mine ignore most of the ones on TV, but...

...the one on 'Frazier' always got them barking. :shrug:

[Inchworm]

17. Hate all those sounds!!

Screeching tires on the radio are the worse!

I damn near wreck if it is a "good" commercial.

:hi:

[MonkeyFunk]

19. I hate radio ads

that feature sirens, car horns or squealing tires.

20. Many/most dogs' hearing is too good to be fooled by TV imitations...

...but if the tube is muffled, or in another room, it's been known to set 'em off.
