My Yorkie doesn't bark?? WHY?? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

joyce evans · 07-10-2013, 12:46 PM

Hannah is 7 mos. old now and has barked only for attention since the day I brought her home. Funny how my DH can stir around the house in the A.M. for hours and Hannah never makes a sound until I get out of bed. I worry when shes quiet!!

Chili is 13 weeks and I've only heard him bark twice while he was trying to get Coco (kitty) to chase him (he loves to play chase). He's not much of a barker but has whining down perfectly

My Megan was a barker, but only after I taught her to, boy did I wish for the next 15 years that I hadn't. Gina is only 9 weeks old and she barks sometimes, usually when she can't reach something, or wants us to get her out of her crate in the morning, if we don't hear her growl first. I wouldn't worry about it, unless you want her to be a barker.
Cheers Quad

My sweet Cassie was never a barker.

Honey did the same thing but when she did start she had a bark like a big dog. Some times I wish she would stop again.

Because you are truly blessed lol Miley does not let me sleep unless she's in bed with me. I don't let her in bed because she pees on my bed!

Tucker only barks when I ask him to speak! He's 12 weeks old, and will only bark when the three labs are on alert

Fritz n Sophie · 07-10-2013, 07:35 PM

Once Fritz taught Sophie what to do she turned into a crazy barker (about 5 mo.). She is almost 8 months now and is as I type in the dark bathroom barking at a pair of shorts on the floor. She barks at everything!

At least she will stop when I say "Sophie No Bark!"

ZoE hardly made a peep for many months....then she learned how to bark.

Now she won't shut up!!! She barks at her own reflection in anything, mirror, window, stainless appliances, fireplace glass, etc. She barks at animals on tv, people walking outside, neighbors mowing their grass, and any animal (squirrels, birds, lightening bugs, moths, etc) she sees out the window, day or night.

Enjoy the quiet & be thankful your pup isn't barking...YET

OKay I know it sounds crazy to complain about my Yorkie NOT barking... but she is now 17weeks old and has still yet to bark, my vet says that she just hasn't had a reason to bark yet. I'm still kinda afraid something might be wrong with her.. anyone ever had this issue???

pray that it last.

My Gwenni didn't bark until she was probably ~6 months old, and now she barks at everything

Wow, I am jealous of the non barkers. I remember asking the breeder if Bentley was a barker,

and she said no not really. Well she was wrong

Sometimes his bark is so ear piercing

especially in a room with cathedral ceilings, so I wouldn't be too concerned if your pooch doesn't bark.

Enjoy the quiet. I pray for that some days.
