Does Your Yorkie Bark All The Time? does your yorkie bark all the time? before i got max people always told me yorkies bark to much. so i was afraid to get him. the day i went to choose my new baby i was looking around at them all and some were going crazy and some didnt care about the visiter, then there was max he was realy excited but didnt make one sound. so he was the one that i fell in love with. he still doesnt bark when he see a new face but is starting to seem protective when he hears a strang sound. |
Yes , Zoey barks ALOT! I live in an apartment and when my neighbors come up the stairs , she makes a big fuss! Sometimes it gets annoying but i'm starting to get used to it now. She especially gets excited when she see's my mom and dad. LOL , it's the funniest thing. She'll run around in circles barking and then she jumps in mid-air until one of them picks her up. I've heard that Yorkies are big barkers. Alot of people say that's a turn off and the reason they won't get a Yorkie. I love my little girl though. She means the world to me regardless of her loud barks. :D |
roman doesnt really bark that much either. he'll bark when he wants to play but you're not playing with him and when he hears a knock at the door/the doorbell. occasionaly he will bark at some1 from the window and when were out side but not alot. im sooo glad he doesnt bark alot! |
I had Zorro never barked, Gracie rarely barked. Now I have a pom who barks all the time and when I got Cali she didn't bark much but then I got Pixie and she has learned from Maya to bark like crazy whenever Maya barks, and Cali has started barking more lately. |
Gizmo never really barks, However.... LACIE BARKS ALL THE TIME, AT EVERYTHING. It can be quite disturbing. But she was in a kennel until just 3 weeks ago. I hope she get better at not being scared of everything. |
No. Kacee seldom barks. I love it. So, if she sees something she wants to bark at, it is fine with me since it is so seldom I hear it.:D |
my mother's girls are night and day from each other, Nelly is quit while Sindee barks like crazy at anything. Sindee is the younger of the two and she let's you know she is their! |
Toby hardly ever barks. He will occasionally bark when I am cleaning or cooking and not paying attention to him. :) But we also trained him to not be a barker by making sure he was always around people and other dogs so he would feel comfortable. |
Izzy is a barker but that's what terriers do and really I don't mind it to an extent. I do want her to bark when she hear's a strange noise or if someone comes to the door, but we are working on the word "enough" to make her stop when we want to. She also barks at the cats a lot - she just wants them to play. I have to think that since she is still a puppy (8mos) that she is still getting used to her environment and as she matures the barking will dimenish somewhat. I've read several posts on YT that people get good results to stop the barking by putting coins in an empty soda can and taping and when furbutt starts barking to shake it and say "enough" or whatever cue word you will use. We will be starting that this week - we'll see how that goes. ;) |
Penny's a none stop barker, where Piper is quiet as can be. Sometimes she gives me a headache. |
My Zoey barks mostly when she wants my attention. She'll also bark when she has her head peering out the window if she sees someone. |
constant barker Maxie barks all the time, at people outside, at the vacuum cleaner, at my husband when she wants attention. I shouldn't say all the time, but most of the time. I am definitely going to try the coin in the can thing. We live in a condo complex, so you can imagine the amount of traffic walking by.:aimeeyork |
Sadly I have 2 barkers. They will come out of a dead sleep barking when they hear a dog bark (either outside or on tv) or a doorbell on tv makes them mental. Also anyone who DARES to walk by my patio or my front door will hear it from them! This is hard to avoid considering I live in a townhouse. I've gotten written up twice by my condo association for their barking. I have started to play music at a decent volumn during the day while I am at work to drown out the outside noises that will get them barking. I think its helping bc its been about 4 months since Ive gotten a letter from my association. Pretty good so far! :xfingers: |
Jack doesn't bark unless someone knocks on the door but Bella likes to bark just for the fun of it. I am not sure about Jocie yet! |
Hmmm...seems as though people have very different experiences. My puppy hardly barks at all, even when people come to the door. Her ears go up and she is interested, but she doesn't bark. |
Max is very quiet. He barks when he hears somebody near the door, and when he wants to say ??? to another dog on the street. He's not allowed to bark at me, unless he really needs me. (He gets stuck behind the couch sometimes and I have to get him out). I hope Gracie is not a barker! I'm really spoiled. |
My husband still laughs because I said that Yorkies don't bark much. I knew a few people with Yorkies before we got ours, and theirs were not barkers. However, when we pulled up to the house where we got our Sophie, there were only four dogs there (Mom, Dad, Sophie and her brother). BUT....the barking sounded like 20!!! They saw or heard our car, and they went NUTS! It was so cute! My husband just looked at me! But he fell in love too. Well, Sophie is a barker, in fact she is exactly like her parents! The older she gets the better, but we have squirrels in the trees around our house, and she sits at the patio door and barks at them when they run across the fence or deck! She loves to protect us from those pesky squirrels.:D |
Barkers oh ya, evryone of mine are barkers, Im so afraid sometime the neighbors get mad, but my dh says , hey there dogs and thats what dogs do;) he like its, says its a caution to us that someone is near, oh you bet and that someone wont be able to hear for sometime.... hehehehehe |
Wow Its Safe To Say I Got Lucky.i Cant Ever Hear Him, I Have A Bell On His Collar So I Can Find Him. He Comes When I Call His Name. Hes Stay Right Buy My Side So If I Dont See Him For A Min I Freek Out, Then I Hear The Bell Coming Closer. |
Jake doesn't bark much at all. He only barks if he hears something outside at night. |
Bella's not a barker, thank goodness! She sometimes growls or howls. But not often. ;) Meanwhile, my lab Bridget never shuts up. And her bark is loud and piercing. :rolleyes: Bridget got a bark collar, she's getting better. |
Siu Pao is usually very quiet. The only time he barks is when his chew toys/toys got stuck under the couch/behind the cabinet and he'd bark for someone to retrieve it for him. |
Vinnie is definitely a barker. More so since we moved into a house and when he looks out of the window he's street level. In our second floor apartment there wasn't much for him to look at. He barks every chance he gets. At first it became very annoying now we realize he just loves us and has a lot to say!!! |
Cody barks when we're playing, if someone is knocking/ringing doorbell, if he hears a strange noise. but he isn't a constant barker. and he has a LOUD bark. i live in apartment im sure my neighbors get annoyed but you know i dont care cause they annoy the HECK out of me so its like his way of getting back LOL :D |

Brody really only barks in the AM when he's ready to get up. Which can be very early. We're trying to get him use to waiting until at least 7-8am. Thank goodness our duplex neighbors moved out some time ago and probably won't get new ones. He is starting to show a protective streak. So he will bark at odd times when someone is at the front door, but rarely. |
when max does try to bark it sounds funny. kind off like squeaky sneeze. |
Our 2 Yorkie girls, Peaches and Baby bark.. and our boy, Rascal does not much. Now our Golden Retriever Barks a lot at sounds like our Yorkie girls. She never use to. Our Golden Retriever, Sequoia a lot of times starts the barking crusade anymore. :eek: |
I have always found that yorkies are not yappy at all, sometimes a bit prtective which is nice, giving a warning bark when someone new comes to the door. I have always wanted a maltese but heard that they aare big barkers! |
dixie and peanut bark at new faces, and at eachother sometimes but its not excessive. |
