Stop Barking

[RubyStar]

If you end up with a serial barker --- then you haven't done your research :p

Sorry to hear abour your miscarriage

I still see you're keen on getting a Labrador puppy. Of course there are exceptions, but to go with the quote above, Labradors are not known to be serial barkers. They don't tend to bark for no reason. I have one Lab who I very rarely hear her bark, even when she's aroused. She once almost sighed a woof at me in frustration when we were training The other barks at random stuff but she doesn't bark her head off. So I don't really class Labs as "barky" dogs. But as I said, there are exceptions, before I get others jumping on me that theirs does in fact bark!

neither of our labs have been serial barkers...when there's a bark it's usually for a reason....

Several friends have Labs too and they don't bark, either. The barkiest out of a big group of Labs that I know is my very own Millie, and she only does it when she wants it to be her turn to train when we're out and about. When it's not her turn to train at home though, she is quiet as a mouse. Strange one that one! All the other Labs, including my Ruby, I have hardly heard a peep out of, ever!!
