My puppy barks when I take a bath??? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

sheilajom · 05-15-2008, 04:25 PM

Everytime I get in the tub, Harley growls, jumps and barks at me! Why does he do this? Do any of you have yorkies who also do this? Do they ever stop, because I'm not stopping bathing lol!

If I ever speak to Storm, he does this too. I splash water on him with my fingers, and my husband says I am aggravating him. I don't know.

kmkrhb · 05-15-2008, 04:35 PM

haha, my baby does this too! which is so funny to me, it's like if he's not at my full attention every second he's sad. at least that's what i've always made of it. i tell him mommy's trying to relax because he wears her out but he just doesn't understand lol

Wrigley loses her mind even at the word " shower "
I can hear her on the second floor if someone is showering when I'm down in the basement! She's insane!!

Maybe he thinks that you are in danger? It sounds like he might also want to join you?
This is so funny! But not to your ears I guess.
Does he swim in a pool with you? My Cricket loves to swim, but I shower, so I don't think she relates to that...

Hehe maybe he wants to take a bath too?

stedmansmommy · 05-15-2008, 06:00 PM

LOL, the last part of your post was cute

Yes, my babies do this too. I think the little brats just want in there with me

mayers · 05-15-2008, 06:11 PM

In the bath and shower parts of you disappear to their limited sight. Maybe they think you are being eaten by a giant porcelain monster, that slobbers alot!

erino77 · 05-15-2008, 06:14 PM

Kammie will sit beside the shower and wait for me everyday

Such a devoted little companion she is, lol! About every 2-3 minutes she will poke her head around the shower curtain and check on me. If I am in there more than 10 minutes or so she will start getting impatient and whining. When I get out she wants to lick my feet and legs like crazy! Mind you, she has water out 24/7 so it's not that she is dying of thirst, lol!

haha remy just props his two front paws up on the ledge of the tub and watches me the whole time

it's soo funny. i am just waiting for the day that he decides to hop in with me!!! i think they just like to know what their mommies are doing at all times

LoveMyJake · 05-15-2008, 06:53 PM

I won't let mine in the bathroom while I'm bathing or showering because they like to make a mess with the toilet paper.

Jackson cries and barks when he sees me getting ready to take a bath. He only barks a couple times, and I think it's because he can't see me. When I open the bathroom door after I'm done, both Jake and Jackson are laying there waiting.

kimmiek · 05-15-2008, 07:45 PM

This is all so funny It shows just how smart these doggies are! Chewie will bark a few times when I close the bathroom door, but will stop after a minute or so. When I'm all done, he's directly in front of the door waiting patiently.

4doggiemama · 05-16-2008, 05:13 AM

This thread is sooo funny!

Finally got the kids out of the house so they quit following me to the BR, and now I have four little furbabies that make it their business to check on me. Locking them out would really cause a ruckus. No peace.

celstu1 · 05-16-2008, 05:18 AM

I ask my boys if they want a bath too.... LOL They usually run and hide! haha Or they lay down and be really quiet. They whine when Im in the shower. I tested one time and told them to come on in and wouldn't you know they jumped right in! haha I blocked the water with my body so they wouldn't be afraid but now whenever I finish my shower and open the curtain they jump right in the tub with me! They are wackos

Cooper sits on the bath mat quietly waiting for me to dry off. He wants me to put the towel on the floor so he can roll and rub his face and body on the damp parts of the towel.. He loves it
