Yeah, that thing was neurotic. I wouldn't have the patience for a dog like that. I like a dog with lots of energy to keep up with me, but in the house I like a nice calm roommate lol. Our dachshund was taught early on to be quiet and calm in the house, but I think a lot of it has to do with her disposition. She isn't super energetic. She needs daily exercise but can't keep up with the amount of walking that I do. In the woods she's good, but not on formal walks.Judy wrote:I think its how you bring them up? Your JR was, no doubt, wound up by you kids and JRs need very little winding before they take off barking.
