Happy Pet Day on Minnesota Public Radio. During our member drive today we are looking for your animal stories. Does your pet listen to The Current during the day? When you become a member today, you will not only be helping the Current, but you can also choose a gift for your pet and a collar and tag will be given to an adoptable animal in partnership with the Animal Humane Society.

What animal songs should we play today? Bonus points if the song includes animal sounds.

Songs Played:

The Monkees - "Gonna Buy Me a Dog"

Porno for Pyros - "Pets"

Silver Jews - "Sometimes a Pony Gets Depressed"

Red House Painters - "Wop-a-Din-Din"

The Stooges - "I Wanna Be Your Dog"
