Toto isn't a "barker" either but recently she has begun to bark and run to the door as if there is someone there! We don't like "constant, for no reason, just because I can" yappers and taught her early on "no bark"! We allow her to bark when she wants to initiate play or other "legitimate" things and are always being complimented on how quiet and well-behaved she is. We do notice that sometimes after being in situations or places which she isn't accustomed to, she will act in ways which aren't normal for her! We think she is just trying us to see if she can get away with it!! Tucker may just be "trying" you to see if he can get away with it! They are so much like skinkids, it's a little scarry sometimes.
