Well, If any of you need for someone to teach your "furkids" how to bark, I have two experts! LadyBug is head of "Homeland Security and The National Guard" all rolled into one at our house. MiMi is her assistant and they clear the yard of any birds or imaginary creatures the minute they go out. One big clearance is all it takes! Suzie Q on the other hand runs the other way back to me and stays with me like she is Miss Goody Two Shoes, but in reality she is. She doesn't bark much at all except at my husband when he gives attention to MiMi, which he does all the time. He claims MiMi because they share the same birthday.....coming up soon.....He is somewhat older than she is. lol
I do like to hear puppies bark though.....sweet little voices. I can even tell what mine are barking at....like they have different little voices for different things....Gotta love them....Bless their hearts.....barking is their voice. Mine are not bad at all to bark and will stop when I remind them "that's enough"!......
