Is your dog a "barker"? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 100/100. richiem (1043)   ranked 643 out of 7,237 in dogs3 months ago

I can say that my girlfriend's dog is a "barker" and a very loud barker at that. He always barks at strangers and cats and other dogs. He is a house dog; he spends most of his time inside the house and only go out of the house to urinate and defecate. I think his being a house has something to do with his being a "barker" because he is not accustomed to people and other dogs.

How about your dog? Does it usually bark at strangers or is it friendly with people and other dogs?

We don't have a dog but our neighbor does and he is a barker. He is tied up outside and although he is a friendly dog but he barks if the wind blows which is very irritating especially if its at night and we're trying to sleep.

I have 4 dogs and my oldest dog, a Blue Heeler/Cocker Spaniel mix, is a barker. I've also made him a house dog. He barks at just about anything; he barks at noises he hears outside, at dogs he sees out the window or dogs he hears barking outside, he barks when I come home, he barks when he needs to go outside, and he barks when my other dogs play and chase each other through the house. It's probably one of his ways to release built up energy. Fortunately he doesn't bark constantly.

Dear friend,
My dogs do bark when strangers come in or if any suspicious moves goes on the my house compound. But if anyone in our family say stop barking my dogs stops. It do not bark continuously may unnecessarily hope well training could help this dogs to obey instructions much obediently. Dogs barking beyond a limit is really horrible I may not get that peace of mind. rolleyes

He he, Your girlfriend's dog is jealous of you, he's thinking your going to take her away from him. But don't worry I'm sure its a small type and his bite is just a small one.) I have two actually and kinda big for an average dog and they bark a lot, I expect them to be that way, but for regular visitors they don't.

Maybe you need to court that one too. I just want to remind you that dog's that bark usually don't bite.)


myLot reputation of 98/100. ferdzNK (1949)   ranked 1,569 out of 7,237 in dogs  3 months ago

Yaiks! I just saw the photo and he's a biggie! Good luck to you tol!


myLot reputation of 100/100. richiem (1043)   ranked 643 out of 7,237 in dogs  2 months ago

Yes, I think he is jealous. But after a while, when I became a
regular visitor in their house and I would be the one to
feed him, he stopped barking at me.

Now we are best of friends, and my girlfriend is now the one
who is jealous. lol

I am now the one who bathes him every week when I go there.

I have actually thought also that barkers are not biters, but
just last month, this dog has bitten a boarder in an adjacent
house. My girlfriend has to pay for the medicines, but
fortunately, our dog has no rabies.

Have a nice day!happy

He's somewhat of a barker. He's a german shepherd, so he's naturally very protective. So when people come to the front door, he'll bark at them. (But once they come inside, he stops barking and greets them friendly!) Or if he sees dogs outside on walks or running around in the neighbor's yard, he'll bark at them.

However, when we go out, he doesn't really bark at all. Even if he sees a cat or another dog or something. He really only barks at home.

I work in a pet store, so I see all kinds of dogs come into work all day long. Some dogs never make a single peep. Other dogs are constantly barking the entire time they're there. So I definitely see a lot of dogs that I would consider to be much more of a barker than my dog.


myLot reputation of 100/100. richiem (1043)   ranked 643 out of 7,237 in dogs  2 months ago

I guess dogs really are territorial that is why they only bark
when they are in their territory. Our dog is also like that. When
I will take him for a walk, he doesn't bark to other dogs. Instead,
he is the one barked at.

Have a nice day!happy

Oh yes, they bark a lot at any strangers whether human or animals!!! There are two of them in my front gate and they serve as my security guards. Any stranger they sense coming closer to my gate, they will drive away in fear with their loud, powerful voice. Even stray dogs, cats, rates, frogs, or any alien that invade our surroundings get terrified with their rolling bark.. enough to make them run away as fast s they could. I would say they are excellent watchdogs!

Yes... My Dog is definitely a barker... He barks at strangers, other dogs, strangers sitting beside me, and even roaches! Which I believe is normal since He's a Japanese Spitz. This type of breed is a watch dog by nature.

My little dog is a horrible barker. It drives me crazy. I don't think it has anything to do with her being an inside dog. I have 3 other dogs that are inside with her and they look at her like "What are you barking for?? Are you crazy?" I don't know what to do to make her stop. It driving the whole house crazy. She is about to get the Dog Wisper call on her butt.

What is the Dog Wisper call on her butt??
