My dogs don't howl at night. In fact, I have never had a dog that howled at night. Nor have I ever heard my neighbours howl at night.

Does yours howl at night or do you personally encounter a lot of dogs that howl at night?

Eeks! The dogs howling to the call to prayer would drive me nuts - especially the one at 5 something. I live within vague hearing distance of 4 mosques and their calls to prayers start a few seconds after each other so they are not in synch which is bad enough (especially because at least one of them is flat) - I'd hate it if the dogs around me howled to that every single day!

To answer the question as to why dogs howl - it is a form of communication for them. They howl in response to each other, sort of like a message network. One dog howls and the others howl in response - and the sound carries to other dogs who hear the howls and howl in turn. The reason why the call to prayer would "trigger" the howling is that it is at the same pitch as a dog's howl. To the other dogs, it sounds like a dog is calling out to them so they are replying. Sorry but I have no idea what the message that they are passing to each other.
