I run a boarding kennel and doggie daycare and there are many pitches of dogs barking that ARE VERY PAINFUL... I wear big noise cancelling bluetooth headphones which makes it easier to bear. I feel ya!

[@chew_1993]

I used to be a kennel attendant before I was a vet tech and I had my mini Aussie at the clinic with me for something (don’t remember what) and they could hear her in the treatment room through the sound muffling doors so one of the vets measured the decibels of her bark and it was in hearing damage range, I think it was over 100dB. No wonder I can’t hear after 12 years of her barking 😅

[@FukaiKokoro]

I have a cattle dog and oh my god her bark is so loud

[@thanatostariq9600]

I like how they can basically gossip together too, it reminds me of jill and honey on housebroken lol

[@mariaannenkova7954]

Bunny is like: tell her to shut up!

[@reginaworthey1401]

You need more carpets and carpet mats to absorb sound.

[@wurstbrat.]

I love people giving advice like Bunny's owner isn't an experienced trainer. Yikes. I'm sure she's working on the barking. Not every second of her life can be training. Sometimes she needs to sit down! 😅

[@anathema2325]

She isn't an experienced trainer, which you'd know if you followed the channel earlier.

No tenrec is a palpitation aka butterfly in freanch

[@ascent-um1eg]

I have never heard a cat make a noise as horrible as this. The frequency and pitch that this dog reaches is something cats simply cannot mimic, no matter how weird the sounds they make can get. Correction : THIS is why *I stick with cats.

[@cherylmcnutt9905]

Nope. Cats don’t make yappy noises, little dogs do.

[@NameRedacted-e6k]

Omg. Lol. If you watch, Bunny always refers to herself as a human, Otter as a dog, and Tenrec as a cat. Those are the buttons she Always presses. 🤣🤣🤣🤣💀

[@HiIamChels]

Naughty cat!

[@stevepeterson5943]

Fast learner, He already learned how to push your buttons! : )

[@GregoryCurrie-s3y]

You're a slow learner!!!! This is bullshit

[@kimberlyweston8466]

Teach Tenrec inside / outside voice. Inside voice soft quiet still can be heard. Take her outside and praise her for barking loud outside. Reward her for barking softer inside. Your dogs are smart they can be trained easily. “Use inside voice, please. “ buttons and voice.When she barks softer reward her. Same thing for outside voice also are the buttons adjustable in volume. ???? They may hurt her ears as she is closer to the floor and her ears don’t lop over. Just an observation, and suggestions only. I have a deaf dog that has no volume control when startled. Over the years I’ve taught her inside verses outside barking, she understands I use sign language and hand signs I’ve taught her to communicate, with her. Where you can use your buttons, and voice to correct the behavior. I have to use sight and hand signs. Again, just an observation, and suggestion. Enjoy watching your videos. Thank you.

[@carlaeskelsen]

That's brilliant. It's always more efficient to teach an alternative "do" than any kind of "don't".

[@MurielMoore-c4v]

I did that with my Cairn. I taught him inside voice because my neighbor was sound sensitive and he barked like a crazy when I vacuumed. His voice was high pitched like Tenrec. My Westie had a deep voice almost “Basso Profundo”. I thought it was funny that she had the deep voice and he the squeaky voice.😅I understand about headaches!

[@Mdaisydoodle]

Lol that's what I say to my dog. " inside voice, stop yelling " she then barks softer😂❤ love her

[@CatherineSTodd]

kimberly, your training your dog for "inside and outside barks" isi ncredible, especially using hand signals and sign language. I had no idea this was even possible! Thanks for posting. Very important information! I am reposting your comment with your name so more people may see it. Thank you!

[@Katfishforrent]

May I ask why not just train them not to bark? Please, I beg you to understand that I am genuinely asking, and I am in no way trying to be a smart Alec, nor am I even against what youre doing. I promise I am genuinely asking out of curiosity, as I grew up with my family dogs always being trained to not bark. I know that everyone is different, and there is no real one way to train/raise your dog. I respect everyone's opinion, and their choices on how they train/raise their dogs, with zero judgement. I truly hope I do not cause any offense with my question.

Exactly.

[@georgianasalter]

😂Trainwreck! Ha! Clever girl.

[@pav-01]

My thoughts too

[@jillsdoggrooming3048]

Not actually. You can definitely teach them "indoor voice. This also helps them find their peace, as well as utilization of a host of other (softer) vocalizations to communicate w us humans. More words means we also understand them better. Win:win." Tips from pro dog trainer.

[@nancyangelwolf]

@tallgirlhappyme I'm curious if autocorrect changed "Tenrec" into "Trainwreck" or if you did that yourself? Either way, it made me laugh.😂

[@lyndavis113]

Then why did you get a small dog and now that poor dog is probably going to end up getting thrown out of the family because you're so"obversive" and Bunny isn't saying that she doesn't like his bark she's saying is that what's bothering you, that you are saying it hurts your ears not her. You're fancy words don't change the fact that you're complaining about a poor little dog's bark when he can't change his bark and he can't stop barking. Who gets mad at a dog because of the sound of his bark.

[@lucilleentzminger1359]

Can bunny tell you what they're saying and/or tell them what you're saying?

[@jeanvignes]

Being mean to a dog about his natural voice is extremely unkind. Deal with it or rehome the dog.

[@adriandillon7761]

I'm sound sensitive too. Dog barks don't bother me though. It's human voices that can really annoy me.

[@jn715-i3h]

Though can Tenrec help that high pitch, a lot of small dogs have that high pitch bark. Tenrec is communicating, so not sure what to say!

[@terireed3740]

I don't see that it bothers Bunny as much as you're telling her that it does. Bunny didn't say ouch at all.

[@tammyjantzen9004]

It's like Bunny was showing empathy for mom. Agreeing with her that it hurt her ears.

[@LucibelleHell]

Homie got a certified yapper with sensitive ears lmfao

[@seratonin7004]

I empathise with your sound sensitivity. I love that Bunny does, too! ❤

[@catcolb11]

I'm also very sound sensitive.

[@seratonin7004]

@catcolb11 it's a challenge, isn't it? Are your other senses impacted, too? I have light sensitivity as well.

[@wickedbasket8858]

If you're sound sensative why would you actively get a yappy dog?

[@karina-oh7826]

I love to keep my eyes on Bunny during any conversation; you can literally “see” that Bunny thoroughly understands the conversation when you notice how after stepping on a related word, Bunny then looks at Tenrac. First she looks at Mom, she then presses the word(s) she's understanding, then she looks over at Tenrac... Oh yeah, Bunny's letting you know that she totally understands whats being said... She IS a special dog. You are so blessed to have her! ❤❤❤

[@DrCoxHugeNews]

"I'm extremely sound sensitive" gets a dog breed well known to yap. I mean you're kinda asking for it

[@KalenaEmrys]

I'm the same! I got weird earplugs especially for normal noises being too painful. I have a big dog with a very loud bark that usually hurts. Flare Audio, Calmer earplugs. They're a tube so they don't block volume and you don't hear your own breathing and chewing amplified like with regular ear plugs. Game changer. I don't wince at sounds now, sounds don't hurt anymore. 😁

[@MossyBear]

I know what you mean. I love my Keeshond, and wouldn't trade him for the world, and sometimes he's just got a whole lot to say 😅

Why get a 'yappy' dog, if you knew this. 😢 He's always going to pick up on how 'highly aversive' he is to you, just by expressing himself. Especially when he doesn't see/hear/feel the same _aversion_ from Bunny's. That's so sad 😢

[@VanessaAnn93]

Why get a little dog, who of course is yappy? Stick with big dogs.

[@shelleyditty952]

We purchased vibrating collars. Doesn’t hurt them. Best thing we’ve ever bought. They bark when it is off and then bark under their breath when it’s on. Has different settings as well. Now my neighbors who work odd hrs can sleep much better

[@Unimaginative.Moniker]

Not to make assumptions, but noise sensitivity like that can often be an indicator of autism. I'm 44 and JUST got diagnosed. Women present differently, so many female autistics only find out late in life. Working at home is an excellent career path, too, if you do happen to be neuro-divergent. Just a few thoughts.

[@essandera9499]

Yall calm down, she's just stating her opinion, you do realize you can teach a dog to not bark? So just cuz she's complaining about it it doesn't mean she doesn't love Tenrec or she'll want to get rid of him -.- I think that trying to get Tenrec to understand that he shouldn't bark using the buttons is a very cool idea and it might even work!

[@jeanne9375]

Yes! I don’t get why down her for owning a small dog. She knows what she is doing.

[@FlailTV]

​@@jeanne9375 probably coming from people who think the only reason you train dogs is for safety and therefore only big dogs need training. They likely let their little dogs have free reign and turn them into little tyrants.

[@lucilleentzminger1359]

Can bunny tell them to go outside?

[@mgsbrowning]

As someone with misophonia yeah I can relate in regards to certain sounds lol

[@shymuse4bts823]

The small dog literally cannot control the tone of it's bark. It wants to communicate too. Teach it to use the buttons or re home it. Loop earplugs help with sudden decibel jumps like that. Please accommodate your dog's natural need to express.

[@susansmith6756]

Why did you get a small dog that yaps alot????

I can definitely relate, I have a 10 lb, poodle/ dachshund, sometimes when she barks it's so shrill, especially if she is in my bedroom.

[@Hollycat50]

Get Calms.

[@sharlenenehs449]

So relatable. I had to go years wearing ear plugs all the time just to mute some of the sounds down a bit even though I don't like things in my ears. The only way I could help regulate my anxiety over my ear pain from especially high pitched sounds

[@sharlenenehs449]

Oh on a side note once I controlled some of my food allergies some of the pain from high pitch sounds subsided. I do notice when I eat things I'm allergic to I become extremely sound sensitive again. Just in case it applies to you

Your dog is adorable, but if that high pitched bark bothers your ears why did you choose a small, yippy dog breed?

There are intelligent, thoughtful breeds which are quiet, but I guess that's just me.😊 I'm fascinated by your channel, because I've never seen anyone teach a dog to respond in English.
