    My Packer is turning 10 this December and lately he comes up to me and just starts barking in my face or in our direction and I don’t know why ,he used to bark to go out but now it’s just random like he’s trying to tell me something

    Hi Julian. How confusing for you! It might be as simple as Packer having discovered that you respond in a way he likes, when he does this. If so, our Barking Center might be helpful to you, in re-training this reaction from him :)

    However, we do recommend a vet check first, for any change in behavior. We want to be sure it's not pain or discomfort, for example, that's causing him to act differently.

    Do let us know how you get on, and please feel free to ask if the Barking Center raises any questions for you :)
