Question about barking.... - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Matthias is 5 months old and just barks constantly. His daddy is always "what the heck is he barking at now?" and it could be anything. The only time he doesn't bark is when he's at the back door asking to go out! I wish he would so that would cut down on accidents!!

I agree - don't get too worried about it. Enjoy it.

I remember saying " I don't even know what his voice sounds like. I wonder if he CAN bark."
THEN..... I remember saying.. " NO barking"... ALL the time! Be thankful,and it will happen,and you'll miss the peace you once had.

Zoe who will be three at the end of the month is a nonbarker...very rarely does she bark except in playing but her daughter on the other hand who is 4 months was born barking!!! She even barks when she is sleeping....she barks at everything.

That's one area I feel very lucky in with Coco. She found her voice at about 7 months but even now, she will not bark unless someone is at my door and usually it's 1-2 barks. She likes to growl in her sleep, which is cute but she will only bark if someone is at the door. But I didn't hear her bark at all until 7 months.
