60s Music Dog Songs by Pet Shop Boys, Byrds, Monkees, Stones, Cat Stevens, Little Richard n Elvis

There was a request for dog songs and since there was one previously, this post is an obligation but it's a short one. We could do cats next time?

You've heard of Hound Dog by Elvis but you haven't heard of It's a Dog's Life by the King. And Little Richard too with his song, A Dog That Can't Wag It's Own Tail. 

Check out some songs here about our Bow, Wows! and their singers like The Stones, Monkees, Cat Stevens and The Byrds. I am sure you only know a few of these songs about man's best friend. Fifteen songs are a lot of woof, woof...

    Sometimes a music dog song “Black Dog” will trigger nostalgia and warm surge of special memories. I was fortunate to have watch Led Zeppelin frontman Robert Plant performance at Singapore Fort Canning Park where he played with the Sensational Space Shifters and they sent us back to nicer times.

    Many thanks Brother Andy for posting. Cheers 👍❤️🥰.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpigDGf6vXM

  5. The singer with the dog is Mickey Dolenz from the Monkees. Another song title is "Who Let The Dogs Out". There are so many stories about our pets that we keep them in our memories. We remember and love them.

    While Staying In the Kampong, Yes Our Family Had Dogs.

    There Was One At the Next House Used As A Store Room. This Dog Was Very Friendly With Everyone. It Was Not Suitable As A Guard Dog But He Was There Because Of His Size, To Act As A Deterrent, Hoping To Fool Any Intruder.

    There Was Another When I Was A Seaman On Board A Ship. Some One Abandoned A Dog On Our Vessel After Loading Some Cargo And This Person Disappeared. So The Doggie Sailed With Us From Hong Kong, Singapore, The Straits of Malacca, Indian Ocean, On To East Africa; Kenya And Tanzania, Eden And Up To the Red Sea, Then Back To Singapore.

    Before Our Trip Back To Shanghai, I Took That Dog Back Home, Because No One On Board Wanted To Take Responsibility Of This Sea Dog. But Thanks To The Faithful Doggie It Took A Liking And Stayed Close To My Father. When Dad Was In Bed, Doggie Would Be At Dad's Feet And When Mum Was Around It Would Growl To Protect Dad. A Very Protective And Loyal Pet It Became...
