Whilst I've got you 2 staffie ladies in the same place, can I ask a question? Do your girls bark? I'm expecting the answer no. D never does - except when she's asleep and having an exciting dream - she does excited little barks then. Wierd isn't it? PS - I don't think your girls look very pleased Moli! |

Gypsy suddenly started barking about a year ago, if she hears a noise or wants to come in....Tara never, my two previous staffs never barked... They come everywhere with me, and usually enjoy shopping trips, but this morning they we non too pleased until we stopped at the garden centre, The toy and treat shop in their eyes.... |

Tess rarely barks unless she thinks you aren't quick enough with a treat - or worse I try and eat a whole apple to myself when she gives a little bark to remind me she's there. Whereas Sal, she is a watchdog - I may go as far as saying guard dog - as soon as someone comes to the door she barks a couple of barks but she gets off the sofa and goes to the door. Yet she makes no sound when she knows the people. Just wags her tail before they are even here. In fact we say "someone's coming because Sal's wagging her tail" Any unusual noise especially in the evening and she barks, Tess will do that to, but when people come in the house or out on walks or life in general no they are quiet (they do grunt and things when asleep) Sal only barks once or twice then silence and she has a deep bark too. Odd My old Gypsy did the same thing - good guard/watch dog. Yet when I had Sam and Gyp Sam was silent whereas Gyp was the same as Sal and Gypsy she barked the same times. And Tess barks along with Sal or first if someone rattles the back gate or someone stands by the front wall without speaking when they are in the front garden - as if they are saying "watch out" we are here. Sorry to be so long. Sal being barking since she was about 15 months old before Tess so thats not a link. Oh yes and Sal gives a little bark that tells me whenone of her toys is stuck somewhere she can't get. Karen |

They're gorgeous... I love dogs, but I can't have one myself because I can't guarantee long walks. When I lived in Scotland, my son fell in love with a dog who lived around the corner Wanted to marry her and everything. Since we left he's named an imaginary friend for her |
