There was a post on my NextDoor feed today from someone asking about ways to get a rat terrier to stop barking. All the replies were about gentle, positive reinforcement ... including one that said, “That’s what we’re doing. It hasn’t worked yet, but we’ll keep trying.”
I assume none of them gives a *** about their neighbors.
Here’s a clue: if you don’t have a basement full of rats to kill, don’t get a rat terrier!
Rat terriers are good for killing rats. Otherwise, they’re nothing but nervous barking rats. One shouldn’t have them unless all are on a farm, away from people dwellings.
