    Download a Dog Howl Sound for Sylenth1

    You know that moment when your neighbor's dog tries to howl at the moon but instead imitates a kazoo? That is the voice of this dog. It is a quavering, squeaky "aroo-hoo" that sounds like someone taught a golden retriever to yodel after three doses of espresso. I once set this as my text tone, and my friend asked if I was possessed by a confused forest raccoon.

    Built with stereo wobbles (one ear gets a puppy, the other a drama-llama), a fuzzy warmth that sounds like your speaker had on a fuzzy sweater, and a pitch that wobbles up like it's asking a question before sliding down like it's regretting everything. Toss in a hint of reverb so it sounds like it’s howling from inside a cereal box, and you’ve got a noise that’s equal parts chaos and charm. Use it for cartoons, game characters, or to make your group chats 200% weirder. Just don’t blame me when your cat starts side-eyeing your phone.
