Be thankful. Gracie didn't bark much at all until she was over a year old. Even now, at almost two years old, she saves her barks for important stuff.

My Sullie only barks at something that scares him, he is only 1 yr and 5 mths. I really like it that he is not a yappy dog. He does bark when someone comes to the door. They are the Best.!!!!

Consider yourself lucky! We had to train ours NOT to bark

Kimbo found his bark when he was 3 months old. Now he loves to stand at my feet and demand me to pick him up with his very loud bark!

I rescued Molly when she was 2 years old and she didnt bark for 2 weeks...after that, all hell broke loose!! She now barks at too many things, but i try and distract her which usually works quite well. Enjoy the quiet time, im sure it wont last!!

Ditto: Jada was already 2 (rehome) when we got her. For about 2 weeks we didn't hear a peep out of her, and i thought she couldn't bark either...well enjoy the quiet for now, it will change..she first started this little weird noise(we call it a gremlin growl) now she barks at everything..everday noises in the house,noise on tv...you name it she will bark at it..any suggestions on how to train them not to bark at just any little noise..when she gets started he little brother bogie just has to get in the action too....but they do let us know if anyone is outside..
