Lucy doesn't bark all that much, but occasionally she thinks she sees something in the greenbelt behind our house and won't stop barking. Usually, I shout at her (which doesn't work at all), but now I'm going to try your calm approach.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05861994507855064237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2956210509414871391.post-24714691057284306972010-04-18T23:40:54.161-04:002010-04-18T23:40:54.161-04:00That is so funny I'm sure it would take a rea...That is so funny I'm sure it would take a real expert to figure out why that works.Miss Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06856562175207518634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2956210509414871391.post-48438668760127186642010-04-18T12:34:07.401-04:002010-04-18T12:34:07.401-04:00Ohh I love your post!

His nam...Ohh I love your post! I too have a barker.<br />His name is Dawber and is also a poodle.<br />It HAS to be a poodle thing the constant<br />barking. At least Dawber eventually quiets<br />down, but he will keep doing it under his breath, sounds like a worn down motor boat!<br />Love the 'cure' you found. We are still working on one! Take care!

Poodles are so smart and really want to please us, Teddy will figure this out. If he had issues before he came to your family it will take lots of patience on your part. We have an old rescue SP that had his bark box cut. SO sad his other people gave up on his training. He is a wonderful old poodle for us.Wonky Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00882803884292223106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2956210509414871391.post-85064900078572933812010-04-18T11:06:13.504-04:002010-04-18T11:06:13.504-04:00Wonderful story, Mickie. You are the Poodle whispe...Wonderful story, Mickie. You are the Poodle whisperer! Have you ever seen the Dog Whisperer on National Geographic Channel? I've heard Cesar say that dogs think you are joining in with them when you get loud while they are barking and it enourages the behavior. You showed calm, assertive leadership by putting on the leash and "telling" Teddy what was expected (and Hubby too!)<br /><br />Hugs,<br />Dawn<br />Hugs,<br />DawnDawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06658368332496429493noreply@blogger.com
