Having owned an Akita AND a Dingo/Labrador cross, nothing quite measures up to a dog that has a wild heart and loves to sing.

The NG Dingo IS the same as the dingo found in Australia. They are also found throughout Asia and as far west to India. Another name used for these dogs is the Asian Wolf. ALL Dingoes howl. They look, sound and behave as an Australian Dingo. I also think that the American Dingo/Carolina Dog is a magnificent example of the same dog. (Where I live in Australia it is perfectly legal to kill a dingo on sight, which breaks my heart)

@nickixl3 These are just howling dingoes singing in different pitches (which they do everytime they howl).

These are not Singing Dogs.

@nickixl3 dude they almost look the same so how would you know

This is a New Guinea Singing Dog. Different from a Dingo- Dingos are Australian anyways.

"The singing dog is a closely related animal to the Dingo"

-This is the oldest dog species on earth, as well as the rarest to this day, thought to be taken back to the Stone Age and the Egyptians- In other words, they're every breed's close relative.

Dingoes are the wild dogs in Australia that were used to breed dogs like the Australian Cattle Dog & Australian Kelpie

I agree with that, they might be closer related but they nonetheless differ significantly from dingoes. I've seen colli-mixes who looked more like dingo then the hallstromdogs

[Retrieverman1]

It would be Canis lupus hallstromi. All dingoes, dogs, and singing dogs have been moved to the species lupus. Dogs are Canis lupus familiaris. I think it's rather silly not to have the singing dog as its own subspecies, so I classified as halstromi rather than dingo.

[Retrieverman1]

They are bit smaller than dingoes. Some taxonomists consider them to be Canis lupus hallstromi, others as Canis lupus dingo. They are closely related but have a somewhat different ecological niche.

I have a strange felling these aren't dingoes. Dingoes are actually pretty quiet dogs. That's why they were breed to make the Australian cattle dog. I think those are New Guinea Singing dogs. They look alot like Dingoes though.
