Dog wanders onstage at outdoor classical concert, settles in to listen

Apparently, classical music appeals to even our four-legged friends.

A Labrador sauntered onto the stage of an outdoor concert in Turkey last week, according to Time. Rather than be unsettled as the Vienna Chamber Orchestra performed Mendelssohn’s “Italian” Symphony No. 4, the dog seemed quite at home — so much so that he plopped down next to a violinist and yawned.

The unexpected visitor didn’t flummox the musicians, who continued playing without a hitch.
