Barking When People Come to Visit
by Kathleen
(Salem, MA)
My dog, Max, is a 10 year old mini Aussie - great, great dog, but why does he single out one of my friends and bark at him? Also, lately he occasionally barks at me. Like he's trying to tell me/us something.
Max is very communicative - for example, he knows when it's the 4 o'clock dinner time and always comes over to me and starts "talking" his Aussie talk. It's like he's saying, "Hey, it's supper time, did you forget?"
What's this communicative barking all about? And how do I get him to chill out so we can watch a movie or whatever?
