Bella seldom barks. But she does growl and howl, which is absolutely hilarious.

My Lab barks, constantly.

I had three barkers until hubby and I said it had to stop. We bought a dog whistle and everytime they got to yapping, we blew the whistle...we could not hear it but the dogs could and hated it. The barking stopped in less than a week. Now if they start all we have to do is act like we are reaching for the whistle and they all stop on a dime. It worked for us!!!

Sammy is 8 months old. He barks a lot, but its an annoying bark, sometimes i feel like he does it so we pay attention to him, and he does it for no reason a lot of times. He also growls in his sleep!

Same with Parker, like last night he seen SOMETHING in the kitchen that I clearly didn't seen and he barked and barked. But other then that I wish he barked more (is that odd..lol)

I have only heard Aiden bark 4 times. Always at the neighbors dog when it comes into the yard. Dogs are like people some dogs bark alot like some people talk alot. The only difference is you can train the dog to stop.

TootiesMom · 11-23-2007, 07:54 PM

definitely true in my house... her breeder (lksdolls) said that her momma Reggie would "bark if a fly farted"... what a trait for her to get from her momma.. LOL
I love the little furbrat so much!
Unfortunately, her brother Tootie has picked up her sensitive ears and they bark in stereo...

False mine don't atleast not for no reason. 2 of them bark when someone rings to doorbell, London barks when she wants to be held

I think sometimes people forget that barking is how dogs "talk." I've had Yorkies for over 20 years and they all barked, but only when they had something to bark at. They don't just sit and bark for no reason. And any dog can be trained to stop barking on command.
