Greetings agboede, I have an important question for you, pls at what age did your local mongrel Jack started barking? I need to know this because I just acquired 2 mongrel puppies of 3 months, one has started barking but the other one which looks exactly like your dog Jack has not started barking, the good thing is that he does not play with strangers though also does not like to be touched by them, he avoids them by moving away from them when they come close to him, but he does not growl though, and he is food agressive too but he has not yet started barking, pls answer the question I asked, I need to know, it's very important, don't just read and ignore.

Fingers are not equal!

Why do you and your age mates on different levels of height, achievement and maturity?

hey, jack started barking the very first day he was brought to me. He was 3 months and I was his first victim....lol. I failed to socialize him properly so the aggression grew and grew till now. He does not have any atom of trust on any strange looking being (humans,cats,chicken, goat,lizard..u name it)which is partly my fault.
My advice for u is to socialize them properly before its too late. Introduce them to strangers regularly at their young age..it helps boost their confidence and prevent fear. And at the right time(maybe 8-10 months) Their protective instinct would kick in. Good luck bro and try to post pictures,let's see ur beautiful dogs.

He has just started barking, yess! I'm so relieved! I was really worried that he would grow up to be a mumu dog, but not anymore! Now I know my boy is going to be a tough guy just like Jack.
