Maybe I've got it all to come, Toby is only 12 weeks old and doesn't hardly bark at all, maybe its because he's so young. He's great with my kids too they love playing with him.
A lot of it depends on how they're raised. We have a Chihuahua for example, a stereotypically 'yappy' dog. But we've taught him not to bark unnecessarily and he's as good as gold.
My MIL has two miniature poodles who never stop barking in comparison. She gives them a biscuit so they'll be quiet and then doesn't understand when I explain that they think she's rewarding them so they'll keep on doing it
It's all in the training with most dogs.
How did u teach them not to bark please?
I used Victoria Stilwell's method, she does the 'It's Me or the Dog' programmes if you've seen them? She basically teaches dogs to 'speak' (i.e. bark) and then rewards them when they follow a hand signal to be quiet. To be honest, I use a lot of her training methods as she's very rewards oriented instead of using punishments and I find most dogs respond well to that.
I've tried to find a video to explain what she does but I can't find one. If you need me to explain step by step then let me know, I'd be glad to oblige
Yes please that will be fab, one of mine is super barky x

My beagle puppy ate our sofa and also through the back yard gate. Luckily the house was horrible anyway so by the time we finished doing the place up, he was over that phase :/
