Thank you? I don't know what that means exactly? My dogs bark at coyotes and other wild animals since my house is in the country... What kind of dog would not bark at them?
I used to get onto my dog when he was a puppy if he growled or barked at all. Now when the doorbell rings or if there's a knock at the door, he just sits and looks at it. Thank GOD.

Fuck that. I WANT my dog to bark. Of course, there is such a thing as too much. Not living in an apartment or town home, I want him to bark if someone rings the bell. Or if someone is behind my house. He is inside 99.9% of the time though, so he isn't a nuisance to anyone. The only time he really goes outside is to piss, shit, or walk, in which case I'm out there with him. Rarely, and I mean really rarely, he won't come back in because the weather is too nice. So I will leave him until I hear him bark, and then bring him in. And he doesn't just randomly bark. He will only bark if someone rings the bell, someone is behind the house that doesn't belong there, or if someone makes him uneasy around the kids (ie strangers).
When I was growing up this woman behind us would leave her dog out 24/7 and that thing would bark non-stop. All. Night. Long..
After speaking with the dog owner and her not growing a single f^ck to give:
My dad took a "No bark" noise thing, took it apart, wired it up to an amp, ran it to a loud speaker mounted on the back of our house, and if that dog started up, clicked it on for a bit till he shut up.
