Is Your GSD A Groaner? - Page 3

Absolutely. He makes his point known whenever he feels like it. I also get this weird soft wheezing whine when he doesn't get his way. He'll just lay there with a "nhggggggggh" what's up with that?

Jerry isn't extremely vocal. He will whine occasionally, like the other day when he was in the car with me and I stopped at the neighbor's house and he wanted to get out and play with their dog, and he will grumble at night when he's ready to go to bed and we're still up with the lights on. He also comes over for me to rub his bad ear and he groans while I'm doing it. He has a little huff he does when he doesn't agree with us on what he should be doing.

He's pretty quiet for the most part.

Sib is hugely vocal...mouthy like a teenager only she is too old now for that phase...she just has something to say about everything...she makes me laugh most of the time..sometimes I just want her to do what I say and be quiet...

My mother's collie is very vocal and makes what we call Wookie noises at us if we don't pet her. Don't dare ever stop petting her once you've started. She's hilarious.

Here's a link to a video of her doing it (I won't embed, since she's not a GSD.) Her hair is still growing out from a groomer deciding to shave her to the skin.

Ava is VERY vocal, and yes--groaning is just one of the many noises in her canine symphonic repertoire.

VERY Verbal indeed
And yes yes yes she "Deflates" like Scarletts Mom said. Along with Snores too.
Maggie just found her "Outside Voice" as we tell her so what ever you do don't point your finger at her if you're at my house!!! Oh and don't pretend to talk she hates that

LOL SueDoNimm very cute!

The talking back is what you miss the most when they're gone, isn't it?

Kayos and Havoc · 11-14-2012, 03:09 PM

Yep, all 3 of them.

Stosh · 11-14-2012, 03:21 PM

Groans, moans, and grumbles.
