Does your dog bark at her bones (not hers but the ones you buy her)?

Question

My 7 month old golden retriever barks at her bones that we buy her. Is this normal? Noone else is even near them.

Answer 1

it's normal. my dogs do that too. chances she also play bow to the bone. when the bone doesn't play with her, she starts barking at the bone. it's the cutest thing.

Answer 2

No my dog only barks at my kids that way I can tell if my son is trying to sneak out again..and get into trouble..but I feed Saturn people food at the table..Although he does growl at Turkey bones i will throw him.

Answer 3

Mine will bark at his water bowl and then paw all the water out....and sometimes does the same with his food bowl.....and he barks at bones........shoes...........sneakers.........and a table leg..anything that is a lower level then him......I think he is trying to get it to play with him...........if in doubt, call your vet..........most will give you an answer to a question that is a non medical issue over the phone.....(if they are a good vet)

Answer 4

my little dog does the same thing. i read in a magazine before that when they bark at their bones and prounce on them they are laughing.

Answer 5

Don't know, but my dog barks when she rolls around in the dirt twitching her legs.

Answer 6

No but my dog barks at his soccer ball, I think he is trying to make it move.

Answer 7

My black lab does it too. I think he does it when he gets mad cause it's like he expects the bone to "play" with him or something.

Answer 8

yeah...mine would bark at it...then throw it around...and if i try to take it...he'd kill me....then i find it under my pillow or something....when he didn't want it...he would run away from it...bark at it as he ran by it...somethings they do are just hilarious....
