I can relate to Gracie's way of getting your attention. Hollee does the same. She is normally trying to tell me something..but if I put my finger up and say.. No Barking..she barks even more at me as though she is shouting or cheeking me? She also can be a little bossy..but at 6mths needs training. We have now joined puppy classes for general obedience .
