Layla is extreamly quiet. From day one when she has barked i would say AH AH very loud and she would stop... what is most important is that you expose him to as much as possible so when you bring him out in the future he isn't scared of anything. If you are going to be using a bag to carry him in... expose him to that right away too.... at first put it on the floor with trets in it so he will go in and investigate.. then start walking around your house.... telling him he is a good boy and giving him small treats. Now we are at the point where i take the bag out.. Layla gets SO excited.. she gets one treat when she goes in and one when she cmes out, unless she is going to be in there for a while (her max is usually around 2 hours... she naps
) then i feed her treats randomly.
