Our dog always comes in when we light the Chanukia, but maybe that’s because we’re in the kitchen and she thinks there’s food involved.
Seriously though, our dog starts barking on Friday night when I come home from shule and start singing. When we announce “Kiddish,” she really goes nuts because she knows that challah comes next, and she’ll get a slice. (Plus, she’ll get humus, some soup in her bowl, and maybe some veggies like broccoli or green beans, which she loves.)
