Barking Beasts


I own two very large, very loud Bernese mountain dogs. They have a habit of barking at anything and everything that makes a slight movement or sound. Also, because they are such large animals, they have a loud, booming bark that you could wake you up in your sleep. In fact, they have woken me up, almost every weekend! After a tiring week at school I like to sleep in on my weekends so that I can catch up on my sleep, not likely. My dogs make sure I'm up every Saturday and Sunday around seven o'clock in the morning! Why you might ask? Because a friendly neighbor was simply trying to walk their dog outside or even walk with their family. My dogs can't go one day without shaking the whole house. Although I am thankful, because with them around, no one will ever want to break into our house. I would love to see someone try and break into my house with my dogs around, they would be lucky if they left with all of their limbs. But that still doesn't ignore the fact that they still annoy me to death. What bugs me the most is when I knock on my sisters' doors or place something down on my counter and they go ballistics. They also don't stop barking for a good 3 minutes, which is so lovely to hear at 9:30 in the morning. I am aware that there is no solution to my predicament, I just felt the need to express my feelings towards my dogs. Whom I love very very much, despite their lack of respect and politeness towards my sleeping schedule.

  1. Haha, i would know. My friend has dogs as well, and i would very much enjoy shooting them when they bark that early. I just wish that i had a mute button for them, because they are really cute and loving and stuff, but at one point its just like... shut up. So i'm right there with ya ;)
