So, we have a 9 month old german shepard. she lives in the back yard about 85-90 % of her time, she perfers to sleep outside as well, which is a good thing because we want an alert dog, that lets us know if someones around outside. The problem is we rent a place with huge apple trees that attract every freaking critter on earth, so now that the apples are ripining she is always barking at the stupid birds squrels ect. I dont want her barking all day but i dont want to teach her to never bark either, any thoughts?
