Do you know at what age they bark?

do you know until what age they grow?

mizzwanned · 11-05-2007, 07:56 PM

It's normal. Sometimes it can take longer. My girl London doesn't bark as much as my other 2

My first thought is.. LUCY YOU

Bella is 5 months and barks up a storm, only for me to pick her up though so far

Yea London also barks only when she wants me to pick her up or at Teddy to get off the bed and give her her toy back.

and the problem is? Just kidding

Ellie growled at less than nine weeks. I don't remember when she barked but she was young.

I have HAPPY, he is 6 months old, and would love that he does not grow much. I love his size. His weight is 4.5 Lb.

I think Gracie gave her first bark at about 8 or 10 months. It was in the middle of the night. She heard a noise and sounded just a warning bark. After that, she started barking at the cats when she plays with them. The only other time she barks is when someone comes to the door. Such a good girl!

Quit bragging! lol! Jack is a horrible yapper. Eddie barks at other dogs, but he's generally pretty good. It took a while before he discovered he could bark, though. Definitely nothing to worry about.

No kidding..quit bragging HEHEHE..actually that would be a blessing around here!! All it takes is for someone in the house to make a sound that MIGHT sound like a door knocking and they are off to bark their faces off at the door..even though no one is behind it...geesh...lol..

My latest edition "Tiffany Aloha", didn't learn how to Bark, until she was a year old, now she barks at every little thing......my other 2 had to teach her how to do it. So it depends on their "Job", out of the 3 only one is a true "Watch/Guard Dog", and the other 2, 1 is just for "Looks", and the other is for "Entertainment" she does tricks and keeps me laughing! Good Luck

Betty'sMom · 11-06-2007, 05:03 AM

Count your blessings! Betty started to bark at 14 weeks and hasn't been quiet since!!

She sounds like a German Shepherd!!

ellie81 · 11-06-2007, 05:04 AM

Bengi barks at other dogs, at strangers passing by, when he wants me to throw the ball, and more... just don't worry and enjoy the peace

hha · 11-06-2007, 06:33 AM

Sebastian 17 months and Piper 4 hardly ever bark, and Penny loves to bark.
