Does your dog bark and go nuts when you come in the door?

I don't have a dog. But when did she would drive us crazy. She had to be constantly at someones side. She even want o go to the bathroom with us. Now there's where I drew the line.

My dog does LOL and it drives me crazy with that yapping every time you turn around. He will watch us go out to the mailbox and come right back and he barks like he doesn't know who we are. We do not have to be away for long at all. He still does it. My dog gets on my nerves also. He barks when he hears the school bus pull up or go by. He doesn't even have to see it. He don't know when to shut up either and that is what gets on my nerves the worst too.

ditto----my dog whines all the time when I am gone and barks at the least little sound he like to play with plastic bottols and runs around the house.my home is made like an indoor circle from the living room to the little room to my bedroom and back through the front room and I bet he runs at least 90 miles an hour lol but it is so cute

My dog absolutely loves my mum. She sits at the window and watches for her coming home. When she gets back from work she always barks (which was cute to begin with but now it's just really annoying). She wags her tail and knocks over all the ornaments and she puts her big wet nose up against the windows. When mum gets in its just a mess. Terry

Yes! In fact, it drives me mad. She usually listens to me when I tell her to stop though. On the other hand, she goes even more nuts when my boyfriend comes home. She acts like she hasn't seen him in months! He can't even sit down without having her sit right in his lap. That's rough too, because she's a 45lb. pit bull and it's frusterating when you have a dog that size wiggling it's way into your lap. It's so funny though, but gets annoying very quickly, because it sometimes takes a good 20 minutes to calm her down and get her to leave him alone. He doesn't really mind though, because that's his 'baby', and he loves to see her happy. She usually doesn't bark when he comes in the door though, the only time she barks is when we leave.

Our little dog used to go bananas when hubby came home from work...he always sat on the back of the chair..around the time he was expected home..in readiness....but as hes got older he is content just to do a tail wag....but then when i say older..he is 19...so i think he desreves a rest!!

When I had a dog yes she would always bark when someone would knock at the door. I didnt get on my nerves actually I liked it because she was like an alarm system.heheheheh

Actually, my dog will bark at anyone who comes to the door except for me and my boyfriend. He knows the sounds of our cars and will pop his head up to look out the window in the front door when we come up the walk. When we first had him, he would bark and try to jump up when we came in the door because he was so excited to see us. We trained him out of that by refusing to pet or look as him until he calmed down and followed the command to "sit," then we would pet him. Now, he's very good about not jumping on anyone, he will stand there and let us put our bags down, then we greet him and pet him for being so patient. If he is really excited, he will get up on his back legs and wave his front paws in the air, but not actually touch anyone. It's very cute.

My husband has got our puppy trained to not jump all over him when he walks through the door, but when I come in, he is all over me! I don't understand it...I do and say the same things to him, but he listens and respects my husband a lot more than me...

My dog does something like that...like if i have been gone all day and I walk in the door with a bag or something like that he will just start going crazy and jumping all around and all of that kind of stuff...and then he will start trying to go through the bags that I brought it to see if you have anything for him and if you don't then he will go whine for awhile...but hten after you sit down or something like that he will jump up in your lap and let you pet him and stuff like that and show you that he really missed you while you were gone...of course my dog is really spoiled...

Oh yes, our two used to bark a lot, one of them did it so much so that the neighbours complained! He was only a puppy and didn't like being left alone. Well we tried everything and were getting paranoid. In the end I contacted a specialist and he told us what to do, as this barking is a form of anxiety. We did what he told us - when you are in the house, call them over then completely ignore them for a couple of minutes. Let them know that you are the boss and that if you are going to leave them you will come back. If they come up to you, ignore them or if they bark, ignore them. Gosh it was hard but it worked! Then to give him some company we got another rescue dog. Oh hum, had to start the process all over again. We thought he would teach the new dog how to behave, oh no, they just banded together and started a riot of barking. The loves! They got better after some ignoring treatment. But you can't help but love them and give them cuddles. As they were huskies they were big dogs so we didn't go for the jumping up routine but sometimes they'd catch you out, generally when you got your best clothes on!

When my husband and I come in the door we're greeted by lots of enthusiastic tail wagging. I love their enthusiasm! If we could all be as enthusiastic and appreciative as dogs the world would be a better place. :-)

When I first got my dog he used to run and jump on me every time I came home but as time went on the idea of my return home obviously didn't excite him anymore because he was used to it. Now I've moved out, whenever I go back home he goes absolutely ballistic because he doesn't see me so much anymore.

when ever someone walks through the door my dog just gose crazy and wont stop barking i mean just non stop i have a toy pootle and he is only 1 year old i mean even when he hears u say shut up or stop he just jumps up and down on u until he pick him up even when you pick him up he is crazy. his name is mugzy.

mine was very good very well trained she would just wag her tail and that was it. You could see she was very happy to see you.

I only have to go to the post office at the end of the road and my dog's excited when I get back. I mean like I'm only gone litrally 10 minutes and i agree with you it is like he's telling me off. Can you imagine the response i got when i came home from a week in hospital before christmas?

See my dog never bark when I or any close one of my family come to my house. If there is anything strange,in any person, the dog normally observe him for few days. After His observation, the person who He observed come to home definitely he will start barking. You must realize that the dog fully observed the person. He understood that, may be in behavior, the person is strange. A faithful Dog never bark to his Masters. Dog is not an ordinary animal. DOG IS VERY WISE AND FAITHFUL. Like DOG we cannot find any domestic animal in the world.

When i leave to do my running in the morning i leave my three kids witch i mean my lab and two datsun/chawawa. So when i pull back in the driveway i can here the barking and going nuts i open my house door they are there waitnig for me to greet them and they dont st5op untill i sit down and pet them u would think i left them for ever but with out them i would not be as happy .

nope my cat goes nuts kinda like your dog does...

Yes!!! My dogs ger very much excited when I come home or my boyfriend arrives. Just the sound of the car approaching home we can already hear them barking. They aren't barkers normally but when we went out jeeez they go crazy really imagine 5 adult chows jumping all over you. They do stop when you gave them each kisses and a short ear rub.
