Well, looking on the positive side, there are a lot of people who will be envious of your lovely quiet dog :) As she gets older she may find her...

My first Labrador was a very quiet and 'polite' dog and although I tried very hard I could not teach him to bark on cue. He simply would not bark...
Interesting question. Are you talking about a Labrador? It might work for a dog that isn't that interested in food. But most Labradors would end...
If you really want a dog you can make it work :) Don't worry!! There are people on here who have raised dogs from the puppy stage in bear...

My horse vet says that silvadene is the business. It's only available by prescription in Australia, otherwise I'd have some on hand...
