The Patterdale wwwppphhh

[patterdale terrier 2]

Hi, just a silly question really, just wondered if anyone else has noticed the strange little bark a Patterdale has. It's when he hears something and he doesn't bark properly, just a noise like wwwwppphh. Now my boy has a really loud and fierce bark, but the wwwppphhh is funny and I wondered is this a Patterdale trait, as the other Patterdale I owned did this too.

I work my Pats and I think I know what you mean but they only do it when they get in the van,when Im taking them out,its like a yawn and an howl together

It's almost like a muffled bark, not a real bark, but the start of one.

I love it it's unique, it's like I know there is something I wanna bark at, but don't want them to know I am here.
