Sooo, you know how you would expect a big dog, say.....60lbs and up.....to have a big bark? Gypsy surely does, Hoss really does, Alexis' bark makes her sound like she is 100lbs, not 65, and even Mexi, who only weighs 46lbs, has a fairly big bark.

Then we get to Umah (GSD). She is 80lbs, and I think I have heard her really 'bark' three times in her life. She doesn't really bark--oh no, she screams. She will start out with this noise, kinda like a 'Booorr! Booooor!' that isn't too bad, still kind of wierd. And then she turns it into something that sounds almost identical to an ambulance siren. Same tone and pitch and rhythm, I swear. Its enought o make a person's brain bleed sometimes.

I swear even Marsha, who has Chihuahua in her heritage and weighs a whopping 23lbs, has a deeper bark than Umah more often than not!
