I remember hearing that somewhere else though.

Oh yeah...







Another one...


I wonder if animals have a sense of the line.  Do, re, mi, fa, sol....  Or is that dog just playing individual notes?

And would they have a sense of tonality?

Or beat?



And this dog?


He just sucks.  Look at that paw technique.  All right paw.  He obvious didn't practice much.  And he's drooling on the keys.  Showing off taking it up an octave there at the end.
