 puppy
First of all I'm glad that you're doing your research before jumping into it. This is one of the reasons I got my yorkie. I have had a pug at home and he DOES not bark. I think that if an armed theif came into my home my pug would just want to be pet by him and follow him around. My pug would probably even show him where I keep my jewlry for a treat. But that's how pugs are, almost too friendly. He'd be just happy to walk off with a stranger. They are breed for companionship.
I used to be scared because my husband isn't home some nights. I am glad that I have brandy now because she barks at strangers which alerts me. You are alot less likely for your house to get broken into if there is a barking dog. So the barking is not a bad thing. You just have to let your dog know when to stop. Dogs are trainable, but I would definately consider them to be more vocal or yappy than other breeds such as my pug. |
