What are you saying Liam?

A BARKING LIAM IN MOTION

It is incessant. And loud. And directed at me. And passersby. And human, animal and inanimate moving objects. And sounds, both distant and near.
It is excessive barking.

BARKING WITH STATIONARY HEAD

Is it more frequent and louder and longer because of the weather and length of days?
Or is Liam (who retains his puppy look) getting cranky and intolerant and needy with age? Or am I?
Probably all of the above. More folks out, more often, starting earlier and staying later.

Excessive barking

The article begins with the situation of a dog barking at passersby. Yes, from a window.

LIAM LOOKING

Liam has an assist from the couch which provides a perch. We have posted Liam looking from this spot before.

COME ON, TRY TO PASS ME BY

What to do? Make the barking location inaccessible in some way.

Daddy Paul took action. 

Fake Liam was installed.

Liam did not like it and barked and howled and groaned. He tried to edge fake Liam out

MOVE OVER

Tried being his friend

Tried ignoring him

Got angry and threw a tantrum

TAKE THAT!

And finally gave him the heave ho.

NOT A PEACEFUL COEXISTENCE

We will keep trying.
Woof, Woof
