Re: [PyrNet-L] Barking

["Mike & Lynda"<mikej@alaweb.com>]

>We have a 10 year old cocker spaniel that runs out the back door barking every
time to tell the world that she has arrived.  The only sound she makes in the
house is loud snoring.  Cotton (the young pyr) runs out the door behind her
looking very confused like she' missing out on something.  But trust me she
finds her voice when the sun goes down.  I absolutely cannot imagine making
one of these dogs that love the outdoors so much live in an apartment without
access to the outdoors.  Cotton has refused to become a house dog even as a
little puppy.  She comes in for a short visit and maybe a quick nap but she
needs to be in the yard.  There is just too many other wonderful breeds that
make wonderful companions for apartment dwellers.  If she wants a good friend
maybe she should visit the pound.  Some of our best buddies have come from there.
