One of our neighbors has 2 small, yappy dogs who literally barked from 10 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. yesterday. (Yep, they were left ALONE that long). I was home most of the day, and was amazed at how many times, each hour, they went on barking jags. Every little thing would set them off: a squirrel, a bird, someone walking past the yard, a car driving past, a garage door opening, an airplane, you get the picture! ARRGH!!!!
What I'd like to know is: do dogs EVER get tired of hearing themselves bark? I know dogs' vocal chords are designed to make a lot more noise, and louder noise, than human vocal chords. But it seems even dogs should get hoarse or sore throats EVENTUALLY. Plus, it would also seem like eventually the dogs would get bored with all that barking, and just give up!
