Chino is BARKING Hey Guys I wanted to see what I could do for Chino.......he is barking and when he finally calms down enough he sounds like a harley for atleast 5 minutes. He barks at the doorbell, leaves falling, knock on the door, someone coming in the house........the doorbell is a issue because it takes a good 10 to 15 mins. to calm him down. I have tried to retrain him by offering him a treat to bark on command, to putting him in his bed.........but still nothing. I also tried the ringing of the doorbell and offering him a treat if he does not bark also of course he gets no treat. So what do you recommend.............also he barks at the fireplace,and this past weekend I bought a MR & MRS Santa and he flipped out. He did not shut up until I put them back in their box. I have to have MR & MRS Santa, I waited like forever to get them.....maybe just as long as I waited for Chino. HELP ME I LOVE HIM SO MUCH, we all do. My husband laughs at him since he calms down enough to sound like a harley. |
i guess I am odd man out because I feel that all the things you describe are normal doggy behaviors. Mine do it and sometimes it does get on my nerves. I think if you introduce Santa slowly and for short periods, he will get used to that sound. Also, I leave the tv on in my doggy room so they are expossed to many sounds. |

Man I didn't realize they could be so loud, he sounds huge and sounds like he will rip you apart.....he doesn't even try to bite so I know that he won't do that. I just thought there was something else I can try to do. He is perfect but the barking kills me. Maybe its because I love it when I am home and no noise. I will try the TV, we only turn it on during the weekends, but this does seem to be when he is most vocal. I will try the introducing Santa for short periods. We take him downstairs when we have the fireplace on, because he goes nuts with it, and I am afraid he will decide to jump in to see what it is. |
