    When I am hunting sheep I whistle
    When I am hunting I say how up! how up! how up!
    When calling a cat I say pish! pish! pish!
    When I am calling a dog I say here! here! here!
    When I call a calk I say suck! suck! suck!
    When I call a goat I say kiddy! kiddy! kiddy!
    When a man is backing a horse he says go back! go back!
    When you call a cow you say pruggie! pruggie!
