What kinda sounds does your Lacy make?

This topic has been brought up before either on this forum or on the other forum that can't be mentioned. But with the addition of Lila into our family I have finally paid attention to all of the different things my Lacys have to say. Describing them, in writing, is a whole nother matter.
Lila is without a doubt the most vocal dog we've ever owned. She has a whole array of squeeks, chirps, moans, and barks. She's very bossy with the other dogs and possesive of her food, food on the counter, food on a plate, empty bowl of anything, me, the bed, etc etc. She stands guard, blocks with her body and give out a sharp yap at any other pet coming by. And they pay attention too.
But when I'm carrying her (yes, like a little baby being cradeled) and getting ready for bed she gives out the cutest little grunt/moan. She'll even do it when I'm not touching her; when she's just laying on the bed ready to go to sleep.
Otis will also give out a loud moan type sound to get my attention. He'll be quietly staring at me, trying to get my attention and then just busts out with it. I make a game out of it to see how long he can stand it before he let goes with it. As soon as he is recognized he'll be all over my face and neck with kisses. He's so adorable.
Amos communicates mostly with his eyes and body. Look at the stick, look at my eyes, look at the stick, look at my eyes. Once in a while his exurberance will get the best of him and he'll give out a very loud bark .."throw the dang stick". He's also very subtle when he finds a snake. If you hear him do a very low growl then you better pay attention.
There's a lot more sounds but these are my favorite.

Jazz is mostly quiet. She will yip at the door if she wants to come in, but will also just sit there patiently while you walk right by. She has a rumble when the the other dogs get too close to her food, which can turn into a bark if they fail to yield. And, she also has a very loud one note bark which means get away from my spot on the bed near Momma!

Jones will literally sing to you, combining moans, yips, loud barks, and anything in between when he wants your attention. But, he also works magic with his eyes!

Jemma is prone to using her whiney little sound which means I want this right now. But, she also possesses a very loud voice, which she is not afraid to use when she get excited. Yesterday, I had her barking on command, something Cristi was not too happy with, but we enjoyed it!

But, for real fun, come to my house and howl! You might end up with a chorus, or sometimes just a bunch of dogs staring at you like you are nuts!

Pearl does a very odd hum which combines a simultaneous low sound and higher pitched sound, sort of like that Tuvan throat singing from Russia. She has a whine which is more of a hum, a high pitched bark, a deep booger bark, and a grunt.
Mike Anderson says that a happy Lacy can also make a purring noise which I am still waiting to hear.

Yeah, a lacy that's eaten a cat will make that sound.

Yes, my husband and my Jemma sing! It drives me crazy. It's very loud...I only thought Jones talking to Momma was loud...Jazz thinks they are all crazy and wishes they'd shut up!
