  Re: Top 10 noisiest dogs - do you agree? (jewlieee) Reply Contact  Hmmm, my grandmother had poodles years ago and they were definitely very noisy! Shelties, never heard a quiet one yet. Most of the Dobies I meet at the clinic are pretty quiet, but the Dobe I owned was extremely vocal! Our neighbor owns a Beagle who wakes us up almost exactly every morning at 5am with his bay! So I'd say the list has some definite noise makers nailed!

  Re: Top 10 noisiest dogs - do you agree? (jewlieee) Reply Contact Hey! Where are the coonhounds! As far as I know the coonhounds are the only breeds specifically bred for the quality and volume of their voices. Marlowe's the only dog I've ever owned where, when he starts up at the dog park, people actually complement me on my dog's voice! Last time we were there, a woman said, "Oh wow, I could listen to that all day!" I assured her that it does, in fact, get old after a while. Cressida and her best friends:

  Re: Top 10 noisiest dogs - do you agree? (jewlieee) Reply Contact I deffinately agree w/ the beagles being on there....I swear Dusty is 3/4 voice box I've known 4-5 rotties so far and haven't notices them to be all that noisy. Now that I think about it terriers are dead on too.  I am surprised more hounds weren't on the list (but I was expecting that based on stereotype, not on experience of knowledge of the breeds) Over all I guess I would say the list is a fair mix of what I agree w/ and what I question. ~Steph "Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." - Robert A.

  Re: Top 10 noisiest dogs - do you agree? (jewlieee) Reply Contact  I agree with some of it, but definately not all. While Mal is a bad barker when he's frustrated and very excited, he's NOT really all that bad compared to many dogs- and he's darn near silent around the house. And I've worked with almost 30 collies rehabbing, fostering and transporting for rescue and he's the msot vocal of them by a HUGE amount, so I would have to say HE is the atypical one, despite their reputation- I'd put 'em on the list but not where they are.

  Re: Top 10 noisiest dogs - do you agree? (jewlieee) Reply Contact All of the dobes that I've been around are quiet unless they are provoked. The dachshunds are much "barkier" than the dobe.

  Re: Top 10 noisiest dogs - do you agree? (jewlieee) Reply Contact One must wonder who in the world made the list!  I had my rottie girl for 8 years and she was quite as a mouse!  I know several rottie owners and some have even gone so far as to say that they never hear their dog bark. My pom - just try shutting this guy up!  He barks at the cat, he barks at the dog, he barks at the kids, he barks at dogs outside, he barks at leave blowing across the lawn, he barks at noises in the hall way.  He BARKS.  A LOT.   Sandi Chase - my rott'n angel Rusty - the rott'n wannabe Reni - Belgian Sheepdog

  Re: Top 10 noisiest dogs - do you agree? (jewlieee) Reply Contact I definitely agree w/ terriers.  We used to have a cairen terrier and he barked alot!  I have a Maltese, I guess would fall under the Toy, but she hardly barks at all, and it's always known little dogs yap all the time.  Not mine!  Misty's only found her bark recently, and it too isn't that often.  I don't really have too much experience w/ the other breeds, but the collies and sheps, I have heard too.  Definitely a beagle is #1, we had one too when I was young.  :) Handle every situation like a dog.
