My dogs all do pretty well on walks, the dog park and pet store visits. No barking, or it's rare.
We play in the yard with them almost daily for a period of time and we also allow them to free play with a close eye - we are just like that. I am having a time as of recent from the dogs barking at neighbors....
We have a fenced in yard and neighbors on both side. One neighbor is new and I sware their black outside cat is purposely taunting the dogs lol!! :wacko:
Anyway, even if the cat is not there and they see kids on trampoleans or the neighbors dog out they bark, I mean all 4. So in order to stop this we have to be right there to correct the behavior. This morning, I just open the sliding glass door and left them out......well they barked like crazy at 7am~! I was hot so I slept in less the night before so I had to run and add to my clothes to go out and distract, and correct.
Does anyone have this problem? My dogs have not been doing this until recently...
Another thing the neighbors are doing is feeding the ducks and swans - OMG I sware it pisses me off when people feed from their porches. They are so messy and the swans are hissers and this gets the dogs all loud too..
As you can tell this morning aggravated me - maybe this is more of a vent.lol
