How vocal is your fur baby? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Wallee · 01-31-2013, 10:28 AM

I swear, Wallee has got to be the most vocal little dog I have ever had. One of my kitties refuses to accept him (which comes as no surprise as she doesn't like one of the other kitties either). She will sit above him and growl if he comes near. He will grumble back at her and she will growl back. I always say they are arguing. Also when he wants the ball thrown or wants to be picked up or petted he will bark in your face ana when you ask him what he wants he will grumble away again.He even has to have the last word when you ask him to sit. As he plunks his butt down on the ground he lets out a low grumble.

LOL! Mandie is very vocal, too. If she is not being the center of attention, you will always hear her off in the background grumbling and growling and my fave...the low gunt.

Clyde is extremely vocal. He talks, he barks, he whines, he huffs, and he puffs.
Dexter on the other hand barely makes a peep.

I will just go home and get a video tonight of the furbutts conversation and let you decide how vocal the two are together

Please do! Would love to see that!

Sam is my little sass box. If I'm on the laptop, he will sit at my feet and fuss softly until I pay attention to him. But he's also gotten where he hates going in his ex-pen at night. He will scream bloody murder, yelp, whine, and cry. Not cute at all!

Wallee · 01-31-2013, 02:54 PM

That's exactly the word "sassbox".He talks back more than my skin boys did as teenagers. In fact just now he is playing his little game of throwing his ball down the stairs then barking for me to go get it for him. My husband refuses to be a part of that telling him he threw it down (deliberately I might add) but he will keep running to me looking in my face BARKING. If I tell him to stop he will lie at the top of the stairs and whine.

Oh Scooter is almost always making some sort of noise. His sis, Bitsy, loves to tease him by taking his toy which makes him chase her all through the house barking at the top of his voice. At night when we three are lying on the bed, if Bitsy has a cookie (dog of course) Scooter will gasp and cry and whine all while looking at me as if to say "get that for me Mom". He's a trip and I adore him. Oh yeah, he also snores up a storm.

There was another thread like this just last month:

It's my day off work, so slacker that I am on my day off (still in my sweats at 7:30 at night

) I'm just gonna copy what I wrote on that thread

"ZoE is the most "talkative" dog I've ever had.

She makes noises when she's having fun playing with her toys, she makes lil snorting sounds when you cuddle her, and the comes & "talks" to me (different barks) to let me know if something is wrong aka her "alert bark" (the fridge door has been left open & is beeping, or the hose fell out of the swimming pool and flooding the yard, etc) or to let me know she went potty aka her "demanding bark"...I want my treat for pottying where I'm supposed to! She has so much character & personality!"
