| 6 months old and doesn't bark Sandy is 6 months old but I've never heard him barking before. I got him a couple of days before he turned 3 months old. He's very alert of what's happening outside the apartment but he never barks. Is that normal? |

| Enjoy the silence! As I type this I have to pause and squirt mine with a water bottle for barking at the TV! |

| Lucky You . Every once in a while, out of the blue, Sophie will let out with one loud bark. It sounds like the yorkie version of tourettes syndrome. She doesn't bark excessively but when she's looking out the front windows and sees another dog going for a walk she barks her jealous bark.

| Pasquale never really barks..unless the door bell rings...or he's having an argument with the squirrel thru the window. But otherwise, he's the quiet type. Be glad you have a quiet one!

| Your lucky right now that he doesn't bark. Pixie barks at everything that moves, along with the TV, when she hears another dog, door bell and kids.

| You should be thanking your lucky stars. My Yorkies are not huge barkers but they have had their bad days. And do bark quite frequently. Bring out the lawn mover or leaf blower Bridgette goes biserck and Teddy if he sees a dog he cant play with get ready for the biggest bark fest you will ever hear. Be happy, there is nothing wrong with him hes just a good sweet quiet boy. Yorkies are known for being "yappers" again be grateful!

| Bella is 3 and seldom barks. She mostly growls, sometimes howls. And loves to talk. It sounds like rawr rawr rawr. Occasionally you'll get a low ruff. That's about it.

| Perfectly normal! Rocco is barely 5 months and he doesn't bark. the only time he does is in his sleep *knock on wood* Bella, on the other hand, will bark at anyone or anything, day or night. It's really quite embarrassing!
