YT Addict | Barking during night due to noise I have a boxer dog stays outside and has for some unknown reason started barking during the night. This has caused Harley (my Yorkie) to start barking too at 1, 2, 3 in the morning. He will continue to bark until me or my husband gets up and tells him to quiet down. Needless to say we are getting very little sleep. I have tried putting a fan next to Harley's crate hoping to drown out some of the outside noise but it hasn't helped. He can hear the barking over the fan. Does anyone have any suggestions? I really would like a full nights sleep. |

| Can you find out why the boxer is barking. I am sure if you have neighbors they would appreciate the boxer being quiet too. Perhaps you can get a large crate and bring the boxer in at night. I know the other night our neighbors dog started barking and barking in the middle of the night and it got my Gigi started barking. Needless to say I was not happy but luckily it does happen much. |

| My neighbors have a large dog who often barks in the middle of the night. If his deep barking doesn't wake me up first, my guys barking back to him will (mine are kept in my bedroom with me at night). I would LOVE to know what make this neighbor dog do this, so I could finally get some sound sleep!

YT Addict | Well...there is a little issue with that. Me and my son are highly allergic to him...didn't realize it until after we bought him. There is something about the short haired dogs. I break out in whelps and my sons eyes swell shut...its crazy. Needless to say the poor thing is totally outdoor dog and has been for 7 years. He is a sweetie but makes us miserable. My daughter and husband take care of him and have no problems. I just don't understand why he never heard dogs barking in our other neighborhood. |

YT Addict | I don't know of any doggy daycares around. I live in a really small town. Unfortunately my yard is not fenced in. I have tried letting him off of his leash to run around and he absolutely loves to run in the grass but it never fails he always goes straight for the road. If I could get he trained to stay within boundaries it would be great. |
