What a clever girl she thinks she is!
Riley has gotten a lot of experience with equipment this year. He does the same thing with the chainsaw, chipper and splitter. Hopefully all the dead wood is out of all the trees now. My body feels like we have cut, split or chipped every single tree on our property!
That's so funny - Asha just started it with the chainsaw that my friend has (pull cord) too. Chipper is on my wish list!!!
I know the Scotty next door barks at the trash trucks every Friday, has for years and years.
And in his mind it’s working! They come, he barks, they leave.
Ours has come in so incredibly handy. We picked ours up on market place for an amazing deal.
No, I don't think so. She just loves to demand bark, whether it's asking me to throw a stick or ball, barking to get the sleeve in IGP practice, she barks when I get up to fix her dinner - and she thinks the noise is exciting, so when she sees me going to the engine side of the splitter - even when it's to fill the gas tank - she runs over and barks at the engine. Now my neighbor, who I cut wood with brought over his chainsaw to shorten some pieces that were too long for the wood stove, and the third time he started it, she ran to him and started barking when he pulled the cord. I only have an electric corded saw and the mower is electric start, so she has just put together pull cords and machines running. I have no idea why. She totally ignores the noise and just hangs out the entire time we're working. She goes out to the forest with us to cut dead trees - I tie her away from where we down a tree, then let her loose after it's on the ground. She's never barked at the chainsaw until the other day at our house next to the splitter.
She was born barking and just looks for new excuses to bark more.
That sounds just like Rocky.No, I don't think so.

And I thought it was a boy Doberman thing?
Good to know some females do it too.
Yes. I tell them thanks for train our dogs every day:
They approach, dog barks, they leave, dog rewarded!
Most understand, thumbs-up...
others, not amused.
Good to know there was someone else out there like this! Actually I think @Oh Little Oji's last Dobe was like this too.
Her first bark & hold was when I'd get the Dremmel out for toenails and she's see it and start barking at it. I'd let her bark a while and then we'd sit down, hush up and do toenails.
