Music Monday Moves Me with Animal Songs for Benny and an Aww Monday Moment
Just like I sing to Amber, I enjoy singing songs to my dog, Benny,too. I take songs and change the words. Unfortunately, I couldn't hold a tune even if you hot-glued it to my hands, so I'll have to post the actual songs. First up is a little ditty inwhich I sing, "Benny, Benny Boo, where are you?"
Next, is Benny and My Pets. You can guess what I'm going to post. Pets is plural because we used to have three pets. Unfortunately, Benny lost his two grandmotherly sisters early in 2022, so we adopted Amber.
Since the theme is animals, I put a frog in Elton John's song. Tee hee.
Third, here is an original, prize winning movie set to music, including "Puppy Love." What a treat! It was made during the pandemic and stars Benny as the pool boy. His beautiful sisters also had starring roles in The Bearded and the Restless.
And finally, here's a fourth because I've always sung this one to my dogs. If this isn't an Aww Monday, nothing is! Check out these adorable puppies in Harry Nilson's song.
Hey teachers, how about a set of dog logic puzzles for your class? If you look at the sudoku, Benny is the golden retriever puppy.

As much as I enjoyed the Elton John/Muppets video and the Puppy Song, my absolute favorite was The Bearded and the Restless. I think it should be nominated for an award! Great theme music, plot, and acting.
ReplyDeleteI love Kermit the Ftog! And I love Sir Elton! Great choice!
ReplyDeleteHello what a beautiful post, I love your tunes, we sadly lost our beautiful Labrador Ruby in April we still miss her terribly. Your post really made me smile thank you ๐๐
ReplyDeleteHow fun, Joyce! I like your spin using Bennie and your pups as inspiration for your song picks. I think it's really neat that you used Elton John with The Muppets. :) Thanks for joining the party. Have a boogietastic week, my friend!
ReplyDeleteWhat a creative post. Loved the movie and "Puppy Love" goes way back in my personal time machine. Well done. Have a blessed week.
ReplyDeleteAwww, and Awww. What a fabulous post.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. ♥
Are Muppets pets, too? I guess they kind of are.
ReplyDeleteThos puppies are so cute! I love that song. I also love the original Scooby-Doo which was so fun..those darn kids!
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful that you sing songs to your dog, and funny that you make up the words. It all tells those pups that you love them. I'm so sorry that you lost two last year. When they are of an age, this happens. I lost three kitties back in 2016. It's tough.
ReplyDeleteYay for Benny that he was adopted. So sweet!
Those were fun tunes and oh my goodness, your pups are adorable.
ReplyDeleteAdorable doggie photos and wonderful music as well ~
