THANK YOU!<br />For more adventures of Merlin, please visit the website I created: <a href="http://sweb2.dmit.nait.ca/bvanderdoef1/ShibaInuCanada/" rel="nofollow">Shiba Inu Canada</a>ShibaInuCanadahttp://sweb2.dmit.nait.ca/bvanderdoef1/ShibaInuCanada/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849890346707089331.post-60044220186211029402012-03-08T12:40:24.728-05:002012-03-08T12:40:24.728-05:00thanks for your help.

People running down the street (jogging), and other pedestrian traffic tends to be a more playful sounding bark. However, some people get his dander up and they are the ones we watch out for. Beyond that he has alarm barks both for other dogs, deer, and bear (we live in Montana and have apple trees). In all of those cases when he barks outside, we simply step outside, assess the situation, and let him know it is okay. We then recall him to come back to the house and shower him with praise for being a good guard dog...lots of good boys for him! He is an otherwise quiet dog, unless he is playing with the kitties or our newest animal control rescue Shiba we named Odin.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01056343792813030913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849890346707089331.post-76413725453754645142011-10-26T10:53:28.372-04:002011-10-26T10:53:28.372-04:00sounds about right. my shiba lilly barks at EVERYT...sounds about right. my shiba lilly barks at EVERYTHING that goes by our house. from squirrels and leaves to someone walking on the other side of the street. don't know how to get her to stop though? i'm pretty sure our neighbors can't stand itAlejanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849890346707089331.post-91060387931271119932011-10-26T10:53:02.907-04:002011-10-26T10:53:02.907-04:00sounds about right. my shiba lilly barks at EVERYT...sounds about right. my shiba lilly barks at EVERYTHING that goes by our house. from squirrels and leaves to someone walking on the other side of the street. don't know how to get her to stop though? i'm pretty sure our neighbors can't stand itAlejanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849890346707089331.post-70386811225071486792011-09-15T11:12:42.746-04:002011-09-15T11:12:42.746-04:00Our Shibas do the same thing.

If it is a noise or something on TV I just let them know I heard it too and it is okay. Sometimes our female barks out of anxiety. In those cases I find giving her attention helps her relax.JRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05985732634729111749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849890346707089331.post-20169132810490997212011-09-12T21:08:07.599-04:002011-09-12T21:08:07.599-04:00That's so nice.That's so nice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849890346707089331.post-48020246052368356972011-09-12T12:14:54.886-04:002011-09-12T12:14:54.886-04:00Yep, sounds like our Kitsu.

Kitsune has different levels of barking, from, "Hey who is that out there?" to "OHMYGODCOMECHECKTHISOUTSOMETHINGISOIGOINGON!"<br /><br />I don't mind the couple of mild woofs he makes in the first instance, but the second is seriously LOUD.<br /><br />In those cases, I usually open the door, let him see what is in the hall, and if someone IS out there, I tell him, "They are allowed to be here! Enough." And that typically settles him. Sometimes no one is in the hall, and he stands there looking bewildered. He usually does have to give one last soft chuff to get a last word in though.K9Trainerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03659260217637849982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849890346707089331.post-64242035915224044572011-09-12T01:02:13.544-04:002011-09-12T01:02:13.544-04:00Your theory fits our experience.

His barking has never been often nor a problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
