PoongSoon has started alarm barking. It's loud but full of uncertainty. It sounds like single barks strung together. It's kinda cute. It's nothing like an angry deep-chested Jindo bark with lots of woos.
I've been told by two people, each with a pair of adult Poongsans, that they've never heard their dogs bark. None at all. They believe Poongsans would make poor guard dogs because they love being around people so much.
I wonder if PoongSoon picked that up from the Jindo that's temporarily staying with me.
My Mom's dogs (Border Collie x Labrador Retriever mixes) alarm bark. It's quite obnoxious because it's very loud but nobody can sneak up on our house because of them.
ReplyDeleteThey jump up and go scratching across the floor to wherever the source of alarm is and BARK BARK BARK BAROOOOOW! And then everything is fine unless it's something to actually be alarmed about.
Juneau is flat-out scary when she's guarding the house. Acts like a completely different dog and will bare teeth and bark very deeply with intent. She rarely does that anymore though.
Conker almost never alarm barks unless there is actually something there and it is almost always some sort of animal.
