I tell you guys.... Some days I think I can't take another minute of her and the next I am totally inlove!!!
I love my Pixie like you have no idea! I am praying that she grows out of this!! Please God let it be a phase!! She can't possibly keep this up forever!! She'll wear out her vocal chords! My mother suggested I get her debarked!
And awful me actually thought about for like half a second!
.... ugh! Did you even know you could do that??? they cut the vocal chords! And sometimes they grow back! (only a real Barker would actually grow new vocal chords!!!) I was floored when I first learned about it!!! I see it alot at the shows in the yappy breeds... I can't belive that you can show a dog that has been debarked! (none of them ever place!!!) They bark like a whisper... which is still awful to listen to, just not as loud!!! lol
I just want there to be HOPE for Pixie and Coco... And no a friend did not help us! Just ask Paris.... She has to listen to Pixies barking too!!! Every now and then even she gets fed up and nails Pixie... its like she's saying... "Enough already!!! We hear you!!!" Paris is such a good girl, I am so very thankful that she has not joined in on the barking!
Even my African Grey Parrot Tells Pixie to pipe down.... He says... "Pixie, No!" waits for her to stop and says... "Good Girl Pixie! Goooooood Girl!!" "Thats Mommy's Good Good Girl!" .... Any time she barks now... the bird starts up with the "Pixie... NO!" But he is good about giving praise!!! I guess I was consistent!!! lol The bad one is when the bird asks them if they "Want a treat Girls?" The poor Girls get so excited!!!!!
