Hmmm...bell on door sounds nice, but I have a three story home so if I'm not on the main level I may not hear a bell.

I would like a bark! One woof. Haha! I dunno if it will happen. I certainly don't want her to bark at other things. With my first yorkie, when she barked at anything other than someone at the door, to be let outside to do her business, or at the cats doing their business in our flower beds...we would gently close her mouth with our fingers and say 'no barking!' and she got the idea. I don't know if it would be easier to train my puppy to bark at the right times or not to bark at the wrong times. Haha!

My baby's name is Strawberry. Hehe. My first and only pet before Strawberry was a yorkie named Kiwi. I got her when I was 6 and she was amazing! I decided to name Strawberry after her. Sorta. I figure the next best thing to a Kiwi is a Strawberry!

Thanks for the idea of the bell. I may have to go there is Strawb doesn't pick up the barking. Haha. She can growl. That is a start, eh?
