That's good to know.
But this really has just happened. She is 11 months old, and hasn't been a barker at all. Whenever she was at Daycare, she would come home and bark for that night...and stop the next day. This time, she has carried it through for another day or two. I really think it's the barking and barking at the daycare that has given her the urge. They all bark as soon as a new dog arrives, and when people enter.
Anyway, I hope I can curb it now, and just not take her back to daycare to encourage it again. Which is a shame, because she enjoys it so much. If I wasn't renting, with my landlord upstairs, I wouldn't care so much. But they really won't tolerate her barking all the time....we would have to move. So no daycare for Jeanie
