[Sweet Apple]

I got my little Apple, when she was 11 1/2 weeks old, and she didn't bark for several months...and when she did, it was so darn cute, it made me grin from ear to ear...She still doesn't bark very much, thank goodness, but now she's 9 1/2 months old, it's a nice clear "vocal" bark...Usually, just when someone knocks on the door, or the door bell rings, or she "thinks" she sees something through the patio door at night...I bet the purring is just a little baby practice of barking...like exercising the vocal chords...I bet it's so cute And oh my, do you sound like you have a good vet....happy for you and your new baby
