Afterwards they are content and settle right down.Īs for ghosts, I placed a beautiful sheepdog in one home. When my guys get in this mood, I flip on the outside lights, let them look around and tell them they are good dogs.

Her inability to see may also make her somewhat shy about barking. She is tuning into something, maybe a raccoon or other nocturnal creature she can't actually see? Or she is afraid of the dark? Some dogs are. Ghosties and goolies, and long legged beasties and things that go bump in the night.? Maybe all dogs do this, but being a first time owner I wouldn't know. Ok, so ghosts is a stretch, but do any of your dogs do the same thing ? Have you figured it out yet ? It really spooks my wife so I figured I'd ask you guys for any insight. Nothing is there ! I've gone outside with flashlights numerous times and found nothing. She even throws in a growl or 2, which she never does for any other reason. It's not the same bark as when she's in the front window (which is a long rapid succession of barks with jerky body movementsand wagging tail), but rather a woof-pause-woof-pause while standing perfectly still and a droopy tail. Now the weird part.at night (never during the day), she sometimes just stops what she's doing and runs to a side or back window and starts barking at the darkness. We consider this her 'normal' behavior, although we're not exactly crazy about it.

Zoey loves to sit on the couch, look out the front window and bark at everything that moves. Maybe I'm just a naive first-time dog owner, or just maybe I'm onto something.
