Beautiful Dog Overcome with Emotion After Singing Along to Song From 'Titanic'
Where were you the first time you watched Titanic? If you're anything like us, the 1997 movie left quite an impression on you. The movie lodged its way deep down in our hearts — although we think the hit song that accompanied the movie had something to do with it. Just look at how the song affected an Australian Shepherd named Oliver, who can't seem to stop himself from joining in when he heard his mama singing the song.
Oliver loves to sing. But it usually only happens after his mama, Lauren Paley, kicks things off.
The dog mom has the most incredible voice. Luckily she's found the perfect duo partner in her Australian Shepherd. In the clip she shared, Paley started singing "My Heart Will Go On," by Celine Dion. Before you could blink, Oliver joined in. While he sounded a little less melodic than his mama, he certainly held his own.

"POV: Your dog can't help but sing along to the songs from Titanic," the video's text overlay reads.
"He gets emotional every time," she joked in the caption.
People were so impressed by Oliver's vocal abilities. "He's like 'ok Lauren ima get closer. It's my time to shine,'" wrote one person. "Imagine if he’s a lost soul from Titanic reincarnated into your dog and that’s why he’s in the feels," another person wondered. "Now I wanna watch the Titanic...again," someone else admitted. "Ok but why does the doggo harmonize so well?" wondered one commenter.
Aussies Are Vocal Dogs
Australian Shepherds, or Aussies, are mostly known for being great working dogs, meaning they mostly live on ranches and farms and are bred to do things like herding or hunting. But there is so much more to these dogs than farm work.
While they tend to be quiet while working, Aussies are very vocal. They can get sort of chatty when they are hanging out with other dogs in particular. Aussies have also been known to greet their owners or accept praise by singing to them. Well, their version of singing that is. They have a certain range of noises that they use too. Sometimes they'll make deep, low howls. Other times they'll make a high-pitched whine.
It seems silly to point out how vocal Aussies can be after watching Oliver with his mama. Clearly these pups love to sing. In fact, another video on the dog's page shows him joining in as his mom sang "Ave Maria." So beautiful!
Seems like the dog has some notes about his mom's performance. Oliver's one tough judge!
