Hi all,
I have a 10 month old male Bichon and 9 year old female cockapoo. The problem I have is that the cockapoo has taught the Bichon how to bark and not be sociable especially at the neighbors dog. The dog next door is a black labrador and the dog is old and does not bother anyone unless he is bothered with, which our dogs are doing. Also, my daughter in law has pretty much the same dog and when we go down to visit our cockapoo normally gets aggressive with him at least once while we are visiting for no reason at all. The other dog is friendly and does not do anything to our dog but will not back off when he is confronted and then we have to separate the two.
Before my neighbors call and register a complaint about the barking, what would you suggest we do to keep our dogs from barking at the dog next door. I have put a wire fence up to keep our dogs away from the fence that separates our yards but they just sense that he is around and just bark for spite.
Please help!!!
Thanks
