Any dog owner can tell you that barking dogs are not appreciated especially by neighbors! At the same time, barking is a perfectly natural behavior for a dog. Its how they communicate. It really only becomes a problem when a dog barks excessively or at the wrong time (like 2 am when people are trying to sleep).
Why do dogs bark?
Dogs bark for different reasons at different times.

Born to be wild, indeed!
Chibi, who lives in Florida with owner David Williams, not only water skis (technically wake boards), but also rides a motorcycle. (We wonder if Chibi has a drivers license?)
According to ABC Channel 7 in Tampa, Chibi was part of a litter or pups that was euthanized but Chibi somehow escaped and ran away....

If youre a dog owner then youve probably taken a trip with your dog at one time or another. Its safe to say that some dogs enjoy traveling more than others.

My dog, Brutus, is pampered like a small child. I have made sure that he gets the best of treatment. I guess that was not enough because I sensed he was restless about something and thats when I started searching for answers. I stumbled upon a simple fact that I had so easily overlooked that Brutus needed a cozy spot of his own where he could retreat. He needed his own BED! My immediate reaction was to look out for dog beds how difficult could it be? It was time for my second shock. Did you...

At times, pets can be irritating. Dogs are referred to as the most loyal pets and this is quite certain. But many a times, especially in cases where you are throwing a house party, pets tend to play spoilsport by roaming around the house. This is where pet resorts come into picture.

Introduction
All pure breeds of dog can be categorised by 1 of 7 groups.
