Big Dog Bark

[Nina, Phil, Harlow & Lacey]

I am not sure when it happened, but I definitely heard it today. Harlow has gotten her ‘big girl’ bark. She is still using her puppy bark when she is trying to convince the boys to play so it surprised me when she was in the backyard doing her business when she suddenly rang out with a very deep, very adult ‘WOOF, WOOF, WOOF’.

We have lots of large dogs in our neighborhood. Every evening around 7 the ‘doggy chat room’ opens for happy hour. You can hear the chocolate lab down the street first, and then the two shepherd mixes a couple streets behind us bark their gossip. Snoopy, the beagle, and sister yellow lab Kerrie from 5 houses down join in. Then Milo, Oakley and Charlie, the Goldens across the street chime in with their news. Off in the distance are numerous other doggie voices begin joining the conversation. I guess Harlow finally reached her ‘tweens’ and decided it was time to add her 2 cents.

How cute, she is growing up :) We also have the neighborhood gab sessions and little Kona especially enjoys
adding to the gossip!

Sounds like you have a great neighborly Chior going on. We have a daschund in the apartment above us, two beagles mixes across the street and two maltese dogs in the opposite direction, and they all seem to bark and sing in unison of each other, than HannahNHoney will join the mix of dog music. Funny how one dog starts and stops when the next dog takes over.

Oh, that's so funny! Reminds me of the Twilight Bark in the 101 Dalmatians. Here's a portion of that scene:
