Not all dogs bark... its mostly the little ones...
I have a 90-100lbs dog here and it almost never barks, the 10-20lbs dogs that I have seen however couldn't be silent if their lives depended on it.

"Cats are the worst."

Right, cause they require 1,000 less attention than dogs and don't bark through the night and you can actually go on vacations without having to put them up at some stupid boarding place or worry about them shitting all over the house...

I support the OP. CATS FOR LIFE!!!

your grandpa (on your mother's side) had his life saved by a dog

so if the world did not have dogs, you would not exist

I don't mind dogs, but they are a lot of work, I prefer cats. That said I do like other people's dogs, I just would not want one myself. Maybe once I retire, but I'll probably be too old then and the old age home might not allow them. Can always pull the "service dog" card. You can actually do that for apartments that say no pets.

I have a Pitbull and the only time he barks is if someone that he doesn't know comes around to let me know about it. Cats are good for mice, killing all the damn birds and rubbing up against a burglars feet while purring. Oh and they are nasty, vile creatures.

I don't want to sound like Cesar Millan the dog whisperer (which is a show here in the states). But dogs are indeed pack animals. And most will bark their ass off if just left outside without their pack family. Imagine if you were kept outside without your family. You would bark your head off too.

The best dog you will ever own is a lab. German shepherds are alright too.

My pit/lab mix will bark at noises outside in the hallway of my apartment if I'm home and not sleeping. If I'm sleeping he is sleeping or laying down quiet. If I'm not home or roommates are home and not me there is noise in the hallway, he is quiet. He just wants to warn his master of potential dangers. He certainly doesn't bark enough to warrant a complaint from a neighbour.

I love dogs, but there is nothing worse than a dog that barks non-stop all night & keeps you awake.

One of the reasons I want a couple acres is so that I can keep my neighbors at a reasonable distance (re: dogs).

Oh, I agree. I posted a thread here about the torment I (and my neighbors) were enduring from a neighbor's dog and his howling/barking whenever the owner left. This would go on most of the day Monday through Friday. We finally got on the owner's case, called the city, who sent someone out to investigate and sent the guy a letter. He bought a collar for the dog (which evidently has batteries and imparts a shock when the dog barks) and things got way better real quick.

Myself, having endured the bad side of dogs for a long time, I could care less if they all disappeared today, it wouldn't affect me.
