| New and need help Hello, Bosley and I are new to Yorkie Talk and we are hoping someone can help me..or us. Bosley owner was going into a nursing home and he needed a new home. We welcomed him in and love him(he is 3) but his barking is driving me bananas! The little guy barks at everything including ice cubes making, I think he is even in tune with new blades of grass growing. We have a shih tsu, who is a perfect little QUIET dog. Of course when Bosley starts, he must signal her to join in....Help stop the bark is not the song they are singing. I thought of a spray bottle, well if I were to chase him every time he barks...both of us would be nuts. If anyone can give me some advice it would be appreciated. He has been with us for about 2 months. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | That was so nice that you gave him a home when he needed one. I bought the bark repeller from amazon and got it last week, it works real well with 2 of mine, now all they have to do is see it in my hand and they stop, Pixie seems to have gotten use to it and doesn't always stop barking. It has helped a lot. I hope you can get him to stop barking.

| coins in a can! If you keep a few scattered around your house you'll always be able to shake one and get the barking to stop! Good luck, and I bet your lil guy is so happy to be in your family |
