| How Dare They??? We leave our glass sliding door open to the closed in deck for our Furbabies and today there were these people who were riding bikes that just happened to stop in front of our house to catch their breath after the steep hill they had to climb.. Our Yorkies all went Crazy!! They were carrying on barking and growling like these poor bikers just commited a great crime.. It was kinda cute though because all I could think of was the Yorkies thinking to themselves.. "How Dare They Stop In Front Of Our Yard!!" They are the best Alarm system I have ever seen... |

| Yes so correct! Yorkie's make an excellent alarm system. I often wonder why I still continue to use ADT.

| I had one barker. My adult sons have taught them all to bark, I can't wait for them to move out. I have 5 Yorkies and 2 others. When anyone gets on the back deck headed for the door, doesn't matter who, the dogs all head for the door making enough noise to get me in trouble with the noise ordinance if I lived close enough to anyone to bother them. LOL It is so fun to watch them barking like they are going to eat my boys up but at other times it is extremely annoying. Especially when I have a headache. But they get revenge for me when the boys get headaches. Heeheehee. Sylvia |

| Maddie is my guard dog, no one goes in front of the house without her barking, not loud, but let someone knock on the door and they turn into tigers. Once I open the door they will lick the people to death.

| toby is my guard dog too....... he lays on my feet and will even bark at my fiance at times when i am sleeping (in his opinion i guess i am vulnerable in that state from the nasty "man that lives with us").... we have a corner apartment unit so anyone that walks by will get woofed at (he doesnt bark incessantly..... just low "woofs" to let us know that someone is there........ unless he is startled by my fiance and he doesnt want him to approach me..... then he will get mean)... the guy who sold him to us warned us that he would do that |

| I love these barking stories! I seldom hear a bark out of Kacee unless I ignore her, which is seldom. She will lay down and stare at me and bark one time at me. If I intentionally continue to ignore her, she will bark again. I remember one time there was a kid that ran away from a juvenile home a few miles away from here and Muffin saw him while she was looking out the windows. He was in some trees, running, and she told on him. Law enforcement were all over after that report and finally caught him. Funny thing was that the juvenile home didn't even know he was gone. Muffin was a heroine that day!

| Brad isn't much of a barker. It is very rare to hear a single bark when someone is near. Most of the time he makes a sneezing type sound when he is startled. Yeah he's weird I know it. |

| These are all so cute.. I bet 9 Yorkies is something to Behold.. Think you could get those all in one pic? Our Destiny goes to sleep with Aly. So when Scott and I sonder up to go to bed, like any good parents we look in on our daughter.. Destiny flips out.. Growling and carrying on.. So now we have to peak in so Destiny does not see us. No one is allowed near Aly when lights are out.. |
