Too true Barb, a Pyr is a Pyr and born to bark and it depends on the level
of your tolerance and your neighbour's tolerance as to what methods you use.
I must be getting old but these days I tend to throw a half hearted "shut
up" out the back door these days compared to the methods I have used in the
past!! I heard myself one day on a video and it was not Ladylike at all! My
husband reckoned that all the fishing boats came back into Port when I
hollered at barking dogs. I've also used water bottles, rattling chains and
yes I have had dogs debarked but today I really wonder what my problem was
when every other flaming dog around here barks non stop!! I must admit I
feel safe at nights here on my own with 5 Pyrs and if they bark at night
inside then I'll get up and have a look round if it's the "sort of bark"
that warrants an investigation. If not, back to sleep. I think we learn the
different sorts of barking over the years.
