I often speak for Poppy and Lolly. Such as: Poppy says she she is going to phone the ILPH if she doesn't get more carrots, or Lolly says she is fed up of Poppy always cutting her up on a hack..................No!?...Just me eh?

No, Elizabeth my daughter talks for both of ours, Fany with a Belgian accent and Cappy with a Dutch accent, which is also camp. I just talk to them all the time, if they are unlucky I also sing!
 
I do it for Bruno the dog too! He has his own little life. My hubby and me say things like: I thought Labs were working dogs, but Bru just won't get a job. He has been down the bone yard, but they are not taking on at the moment.

Me too - horse has a voice as do each of the three cats - all provided by me. I'm quite worried that if OH leaves this earth before me I'll retreat and end up as some mad old woman stuck in the house just doing cat voices all day

I was at a livery yard once with a girl who used to do that - in a weird voice! She would say ... 'Tom isn't happy today' in her normal voice and then .... ' I'm not a happy boy today' straight after in a weird voice.

Don't do it - people with think you are loopy lol!!
 
Yeah, I get that sometimes. But since I speak Dutch and German and had Dutch and German horses, their thoughts come out in English. Its only like when they're really frustrated about something.
 
Some years back I was grooming my horse in his stable. I asked him if he felt like a little hack round the block and there suddenly boomed out a deep gruff gelding sort of voice, "Well actually I'd rather not thank you". I almost fell over in shock. Nutty male livery that I hadn't spotted in the next door stable!
 
Oh, blimey, yes!!

My arab's voice is uncannily like Kenneth Williams'...I've got him off to a fine art now...very camp, and so funny when he rolls his eyes and puckers his nostrils when I'm talking for him. Oooh matron!! And my little Exmoor 'talks' in a little boy voice with a west country accent.

I had the maddest moment a month or so ago when I built a snowman in the field for my Exmoor. , the snowman had a voice with a weird Irish accent (don't know why) and was shouting 'ah bejasus yer killin' me' as the Exmoor knocked him over. The Exmoor was going 'oim gonna eat yer nose' and Kenneth Williams was hopping around in the background shouting 'we'll all be murdered in our beds' because he's a drama queen.

I talk for my pets too... and I have a habit of including animals in conversations... for example, sitting in the office chatting to some clients I will say something and then say "isn't it, Danny?" to the dog. In fact, I often end up talking more to the dog than the humans.

I say to Vinnie you are such a handsome boy Vinnie and he says in his welsh accent 'i know mum you tell me every day.'
When he arrived at new yard he was introducing himself
'Hello i'm Vincent and i'm from wales.' all the other horses have broad scottish buchan accents and find i hard to understand him
