For Those Of You With Two Cockers

Hmmmmmmmmmm   

They're still barking!!

Its not all the time, just when they're playing. But they start playing at 5.15am, and thats a problem! I think if I lived in a forest I'd put some ear plugs in and leave them to it - but we have neighbours to one side and even though they are fantastic, there's only so much you can take - they'll be getting Asbo's out on my two!!    

I have a Plan A. I have stuffed a kong and frozen it. When they start playing in the morning, I will seperate them, put Daisy in the living room (she will think she's in heaven!) and give Woody the kong. Hopefully, Daisy will then sleep and Woody will be occupied for a while without crying and whining for Daisy.

Plan B - I'm going to sell them both on Ebay!   ::

Plan C - get a goldfish   Ben barks when left alone - bad luck on the neighbours!  They haven't complained but have let me know that he's very vocal!  He might join yours on ebay soon

          However you have a MAJOR problem - you either have to give a true description or expect to get them returned

Are dog barks but what are dog groomer told us is to get a small empty bottle and put some stones in it and every time they bark shake it and if it carries on through it not at them but near them it works for us.

Our Coops is pretty quiet unless he wants food or something then he'll give you a bit of lip.   But I can well imagine that if Cooper ever has another cocker buddy in the house we will be having the same problems you!!  He loves to shout to other doggies we see on our walks.  Usually if the other dog is on a lead, like he's being cocky saying 'you can't get me'!
I will be on Ebay bidding if you have to resort to Plan B.
Hope things get better for you soon.

Penny's very quiet, hardly ever barks except for a couple of woofs as she's going out the front door,and thats  just to let any adoring fans know she's free for a tickle before she goes on a walk or gets in the car.

We are hoping to have another this year, so I guess things could change.
