A dog may howl before dying as a way to attract another dog or human's attention. This is common in situations where the dog requires assistance and has been injured. It is also a form of communication displayed by certain dogs depending on their surroundings similar to barking.

Why did my dog howl before he died? A dog may howl before death as a way to communicate its discomfort to other dogs or humans in its pack. This is just a way to let them know about their presence and how they are feeling. ... There is nothing more to it for those who want closure when it comes to their dog's death.
