Haha, the pup of my best friend is very curious and reacts on the sounds really funny. If you start snoring or whistle, he will come to you and start seek for the sound source. Sometimes he can even try to get inside of your mouth (no one lets him do this, of course), just like these two dogs on the photo :)
