Hi all, Mindy is learning "off" today (as in, Off the couch!") and she barked each time she was told, almost as though she thought off meant speak! She figured it out, she's a quick learner when food is involved - but was just curious since she hardly ever barks: Think this was frustration? Obstinance? Anyone else have this happen? She's a great girl and I just ignored the barking - completely diverted my attention and turned my back. Then she got the point . Sunny
Barking can mean excitement - she could just have been getting into the "game". Best to ignore it, as you did, and hopefully it will diminish. Glad she learned quickly!
