I tell you they could be translators.

Silent is wrong - non-barking is what I meant.
The only time she barks is when she's in the garden and hears another dog

Do your staffies yodel? my GYpsy does!

dinahsmum · 24-01-2006, 10:24 PM

Yodel is a good word.

Yes it is a yodel/Tarzan whoop/yawn.
Don't all staffies do it?
Dinah does it when she is 'supposed to be being good but really it is so boring but I don't make a fuss or yap or anything so I won't do anything just yawn as I lie here under the seat in the pub' ' Oh look, people are speaking to me - who'd have thought that would happen

'

My Tara doesn't, Someone once told me off, because my staff (not these two the one before them) was sitting yodeling, they reckoned I was bad to her!!

Yep both mine yodel thats an excellent word for it, thing is they are in competition with each other

fantastic.

MIL staffie is the noisiest dog I have ever known. She never stops barking

and is downright nasty, not to people but tries to kill my cats and rabbits

I dread her coming. I hate to say this as I am an animal lover through and through but I don't like her dog at all

It has put me off ever owning a staffie

I glad only one of mine does it!

No they are good girls, and 98% of the time you wouldn't know if they were here.

unless you fall over one of their kongs.

And Fran thats out of order with your MIL Staffie I would never let my two have a go at other people's animals. I either wouldnt take them if they were like that or leave them in the car if I had to take them.
But if I did take them into your house for arguments sake Fran then they would lie down and behave,

I promise you regardless of what went past.

cat or rabbit.

Moli · 24-01-2006, 10:53 PM

Mine are the same Fran, they wouldn't bother with your cats or rabbits, they are such a couple of saps, the rabbits would probably scare them....My neighbour has a pygmy goat that is always running around, they are terrified of it!!

dinahsmum · 24-01-2006, 10:55 PM

Yep - same here.
Your MIL must have a bad one

(or a badly brought up one - they usually just want to do whatever you want them to)
