There were some fun moments like this with the older male corgi our friends had. Bear had been retired from herding when his owner decided to get out of flock animals and into horses, so they repurposed him as a ratter. Now, corgis are not ratters, but by God did Bear have a passion for hunting and killing rats. The best way to get him to make that noise you described was to say "Go get the rats, Bear!"

Even cuter was watching his daughter try to imitate him when she was just a teeny puppy. Same exact sound, but much higher and quieter. Then again, Lily was all about the "I'm a big dog!" stuff, which just made her a thousand times cuter.

Sometimes dogs will surprise you with what makes a good ratter. My mom's family had a litter of St Bernard/Rottie mixes when she was a kid that were excellent ratters and worked as a team to keep the rats out of the horse barn.
