[quote=Anonymous]Growing up we had a schnauzer mix that was very yappy. Over the years, we’ve had several labs, poodles and poodle mixes, and like all dogs, they bark, but IME they are less indiscriminate than schnauzers. Our current two doodles will go nuts barking at someone new at the door, or dogs that walk too close to the house, but they can be taught not to bark. They’ve been trained, for example, not to bark at people and dogs in our neighbor’s yard. When we were having construction, it took about two days for them to stop barking at the construction guys when they showed up in the morning, and they don’t bark at the pool guy. Once we’ve told them “hush, that person is ok” they’re pretty smart about knowing who belongs and who doesn’t. I’ve heard some doodles are crazy and neurotic, but that hasn’t been the case in our experience. [/quote]
