Most dogs can bark, many will growl -- but howling is a special art form.

In a video posted yesterday by YouTube user glassgecko, a pitbull hears another dog howl. And hey -- he’s a pitbull -- so he wants to howl too. But despite the breed’s reputation for aggression, this particular pitbull is just too tender to properly howl. He coughs, he chortles, he does something weird with the back of his throat.

Maybe this pitbull just needs some chamomile tea and tough love.
