Beagles do not tend to be 'yappy' dogs, however, they can and will bark when given the right stimulation. Most will bark/growl when strange dogs/people/things-you-can't-see come in their territory. They will also bark when excited, although this varies from dog to dog. Most beagles will become very vocal if they are left alone a lot. Some beagles can be extremely vocal, although this can vary by individual as to amount of vocalization and type.

Ask any child "What does a rooster say?" and they will throw their head back and give you all they've got! But the hens, they are a different story. They usually make a soft, contented clucking sound--until they lay an egg. Then they get very excited and proud and will squawk for a few moments and then settle back down. They do not make a ruckus in the morning like their male counterparts and they are fast asleep in their coop by the time the sun goes down. See similar questions...

Most adult dogs that chew destructively are usually relieving stress. Other symptoms of stress include excessive barking or digging. All puppies chew, especially if they are teething. As adults, BMCs are usually not "chewers" and are content with toys like nylabones or Kong toys. Some lines of BMCs bark more than others, and you should ask the individual breeder about his line.

Poodles will bark if you allow them to. You need to discipline your pet and tell them “no” when they are doing something they shouldn't or something you don't want them to do. It is very easy to train a poodle not to bark A normal poodle doesn't typically bark much, anyway, except when they are playing or warning you a stranger is approaching. See similar questions...

The units are exceptionally quiet and ideal if you want climate control in your bedroom for example. An ultra low noise night time setting can be switched on using the remote controller. See similar questions...

Goldens are typically very eager to please their owners. This willingness to do just about anything for a 'pat on the head', means they are relatively easy to train for obedience and have a good attitude in the ring. You will see many Goldens winning in the obedience ring. See similar questions...

If you are shooting in auto ISO, your camera may be boosting the ISO to compensate for an underpowered flash. You can try manually forcing the ISO to a lower value, but if the underlying problem is not enough flash power, then you'll get less noisy, but underexposed shots. You might consider getting a more powerful external flash. See similar questions...

Not especially, although ears and feet will require special attention. Beagles have a smooth lying, hard, medium length coat with a finer undercoat. Females will "blow" their coat after each season, and males will "blow" once a year, generally when the weather grows warmer in the spring. A good brushing once or twice a week is usually sufficient to keep your beagle's coat clean and healthy. See similar questions...

Beagles, when fed a recommended, premium quality food actually need only one or two cups a day, a surprisingly small amount for such an active, medium sized dog. It is very easy to overfeed, as most beagles are "good eaters" so you must monitor their weight carefully. See similar questions...

The Beagle himself will generally tell you no; left on his own, the adult "house pet" beagle is actually often a fairly lazy animal. The adolescent beagle, however, is an exhuberant creature who will need adequate opportunities to exercise his growing body and mind. The prefered forms of exercise include leisurely walks with their family or a good run while out hunting. Many beagles are enthusiastic retrievers, if taught when young. See similar questions...

Mine don’t. They do sound off when someone comes to the door or they see a squirrel that taunts them outside. See similar questions...

It depends. They do bark when they want something, but can be trained not to bark. My havanese are quiet all day while I'm at work, but want my attention for awhile after I get home They are also good watch dogs and will bark at doorbells, knocks, or other noises they deem as intrusive.

Once they find their voice, they have barks that sound like they come from much bigger dogs, making them good watch dogs - not guard dogs (which will actually attack) but watch dogs, which only make a lot of noise. See similar questions...

a rule, Cavaliers are not barkers.  Some do sound off when someone comes to the door or they see a squirrel that taunts them outside. They are definitely not "yappers". See similar questions...

Yvonne says: It depends on the dog. In my experience, the senior female Westie in a group will need to alert the family to any strangers. My male is much more willing to just watch strangers go by the yard. However, it is very possible to teach your Westie to give only one bark and then be quiet. The trick, I think, is to never let the dog keep on barking. Bring him or her into the house, and even put them into the crate until he or she quiets. See similar questions...

Some Corgis do bark a lot, others are very quiet. Some barking is a form of warning and a function of the protective nature of the breed, however, excessive barking should be addressed with proper training, especially when the dog is young - just like teaching your kids! See similar questions...
