My Little Protector! Does your Yorkie bark about every little suspicious noise? Tobie just started doing this. Last night I fell asleep on the couch with him. Well, we have been having sleet and snow and the wind is blowing really hard. A few times during the night the wind blew really hard on our front door and it sounded like someone was trying to come in. Tobie was in a deep sleep and as soon as he heard this he jumped up and started barking at the door. I was asleep too and it gave me a heart attack! lol. Do all Yorkies think they have to be the protector of the house? :p |
LOL miss buffey is my protector!!! she is so funny. when we are sleeping and she hears something, she will bark real low and quiet at first to wake me me. once i wake up and tell her shhhh, it is okay, she will run to the edge of the bed and bark louder. then she runs and sits on my chest facing outward and growls. i think it is so cute she always jumps and sits on my chest - facing out - because i really think she thinks she is protecting her mommy :D ETA: my other kids do not really even move or make a peep when she hears something. so i guess she is the protector of everyone! lol |
Mine tried to protect me from ice in the sink the other day. we were snuggling on the counch and my husband had thrown out his drink in the sink and the ice sat on the top part of the drain and once it started to melt it fell all the way in the drain and he started barking like someone was breaking in. I kept telling him it was just ice but he was on high alert making sure everything was ok. |
Aww, that is so cute! I just think it's funny that they think they are so tough and scary. hehe |
Piper never really barked much at all. She is 10 months old now and recently she barks at every strange noise that she hears. She is now our Little Protector. |
Suzi did not start being a real barker until older. She turned a yr old on Mar.3 It has been warm in Cali and everybody has had their windows open. My darling sometimes will start with a low growl than bark her head off, or really cut loose and have a deep alarming bark , running to the door, back and forth to the window, very upset, all of this at 2am. wakes my son and I each time, Suzi is such a good protector. we love her so much. A little dog, with such a huge bark. It is not her fault , it is all the noise , and she must tell us what is going on! :thumbup: |
Hot Rod will bark at noises, scares me to death! Then he gets Maggie going. lol. He usually is not a barker and Maggie has only barked 2x that I have heard. It was so funny the other day, there were at least 9 deer in our back yard and both of them went NUTS! They ran from the kitchen slider to to the sunroom and back. Lo and behold, they chased every single deer away. They were so proud of themselves. :) |
Tucker went through his first thunder storm last night. He was barking at it. My previous dog was terrified of the noise He would tremble, and get so nervous. as he got older, I was afraid it wpuld scasre him to death. Not my little 5 month old fierce Yorkie. He wanted to "get at it". Tucker's Mom |
Cassi is also not a barker as well, but whenever she hears something in the front or the back of our house, she'll start will low bark and will get increasingly louder until I go and check it out. One time she started barking really loud b/c she heard a noise in the back, I went to check it out, and low and behold I saw a huge dog in our backyard. Scared the heck out of me. Apparently one of our neighbors likes to walk their dog off the leash and doesn't care if her dog goes to other peoples back yard to do his/her potty. Anyway, one of these days we're going to have to install a gate in our backyard b/c my DH is getting annoyed at picking up all this poop from our neighbor's dog. :rolleyes: |

My Rat Terrier used to be TERRIFIED of storms but her hearing isn't very good anymore so they don't bother her. When Oklahoma had that F5 tornado on May 3rd (I forget the year), I thought she was going to have a heart attack. The whole time she sat in a corner and shook and panted so hard. It was really scary! |

Noelle isn't a barker either but she did try to warn me of the evil dog in the dishwasher! LOL! She noticed her reflection in the front of the dishwasher, stopped, glared, backed up, and charged barking furiously! She looked at me and charged the dishwasher again! She kept it up until I picked her up, touched the dishwasher and tried to reassure her. She still walks by the dishwasher with a nasty sideways glance with a low growl.:rolleyes: |
I don't have a protector...Sam doesn't bark at anything.. |
