I am with you, believe me! Like I said, she's got her issues, and i'm definitely working on them but I KNOW for a FACT she doesn't bark all day long. I'm still looking for tapes, my best friend said she had some when she was in nursing school so they have to be out there somewhere!
I own my unit - i'm just afraid if they start slapping me with fines, what i'll do. They've actually forced someone to sell because they had dog issues...but I think those were more in line with not walking on leashes. After reading about the debarking, I feel SO bad for my mom's dog! she adopted a mini pinscher that was from an amish puppy mill - they are the WORST when it comes to how they treat dogs - livestock! I think they must have debarked her. I always tell my mom it sounds like she's a sixty year old smoker! the poor thing...
Thanks for responding, I feel a little better now. I just hope there are no fines!!
