Area Dachshund Excels at Voice Lessons
Area Dachshund Excels at Voice Lessons
By Mirandate, FluffPo Correspondent
Sam, a 6-year-old Dachshund originally from Texas, is the most recent star of Diva Voice Studios, according to his teacher, Alisa. Although he was originally attracted to lessons at the studio so he could improve his karaoke performance of Elvis Presley’s “Hound Dog,” in recent weeks, he’s discovered a passion for Hank Williams. Sam even plans to record a cover album early next year, featuring one original composition by Sam himself: “You Can’t Hide Your Snout Away.”
Sam has been described as a vocal prodigy. “At first, we worked on diction, enunciation, and reducing his Southern drawl,” Alisa Wilson, director of the studio noted. “But he rapidly surpassed my expectations and I think he’ll be ready for solo work soon. His sense of tone is one of the best I’ve worked with, and he has two great, floppy ears.”
Jack Darby, Sam’s downstairs neighbor, admitted, “At first, I was annoyed by his constant practicing, but in recent weeks he’s gotten a lot better at scales.” At press time, Sam was getting sniffs and bites of interest from local record company Snout Jam Records, though it was unclear whether this was official or related to the office poodle, Rex.

Dog Starts Beatles Cover Band
Dog Starts Beatles Cover Band
Local dog Rusty has quit his job as a wedding singer to follow his dream of starting a Beatles cover band.
“They’re called The Rubber Souls,” says band manager Luke “Dizzy” Novick. “Only three pups in there now, we’re looking for the right Ringo. But they’ve got a great sound. If you close your eyes, you’d think you were at the Ed Sullivan show in 1964. Except with dogs singing.”

Cat Finds Long-Lost Sister on Fluffington Post
Cat Finds Long-Lost Sister on Fluffington Post
A Texas cat named Kelly was browsing this very website when she came upon the story of Vegas, a giant cat under investigation for manslaughter after a man was found dead beneath her.
“Her whole life, Kelly has been looking for her siblings from the litter she was taken from,” says Andrew Burhoe, a source close to the situation. “Today, she found one of them,” Burhoe explains, referring to the two cats’ identical markings.
Indeed, Vegas has roots in Texas, but until genealogists can get involved, it’s impossible to prove a family connection.
“That won’t be any time soon,” says NYPD detective Conrad Filo who is still investigating the manslaughter case. “We need to make sure Vegas isn’t a threat to society before they have an Oprah reunion, OK?”
