Everyone needs to talk about a spay/neuter... while in Europe it is not the "norm" to do so... however in the US it is.... that said waiting till the pup is mature is the best... but in the US we have issues with puppymills and Backyard breeders that breed/sell pups for profit... My contracts say that the pup needs to be spayed/neutered... and we talk about the age. Again, I will say that my puppy people are "Vetted" before getting a puppy, but many Puppymiller puppies and/or Backyard Breeders could not care if those pups were bred or not... nor are they health tested... so as they say "buyer beware". Responsible breeders stay in touch with the pups they place... the others... NOT... could not care less... OK I said my 2cents... And many in the US are not ready to keep a female that is in season... a short story about a friend that had 2 German Shepards... Male/Female in tact.... female came in season, so they locked to male in the backyard, female in their garage... the male "ate down the door to the garage to get to the female..".... puppies happened... no health testing either... IT HAPPENS... DO NOT THINK THAT IT WILL NOT! And I can tell you stories about males coming through windows in the home to get to a bitch in season....years ago we had a 12yr in-tact male lab 3 blocks over, he knew exactly when my Basenji bitches were in season... thankfully we had 12ft fences... but he was there every single day... not so for many homes that have fences this big... and if this boy was younger... I can bet he would have found a way over the fence
Got my first baroo!!

Monday was my first day back to work since I got Oakley…Iwill tell you that he caused mayhem both when I arrived from lunch and at the end of the day. When I let him out for good he got so excited he was whining,crying and trying to wiggle his bum...then out it came- a baroo! It was so cute because he never did it and I didn't think he would be a talker, it sounded so adorable....thats a memory I know I'll always remember

Chealsie….

Chealsie, congrats on hearing one of the best sounds around! Here's hoping you experience many more.

Hearing our girl talk for the first time was so amazing. I understand your excitement! Gracie is a talker now but didn't start out that way. It still feels so very special to hear her voice when she thinks I deserve it.

I love the baroos, Trog does not make any sounds but Xander gives roos every time he is excited to see me.

It is a wonderful moment when a new B sounds off for the first time. Just imagine how exciting it is to hear two B's rooing in harmony, Mr Baroo is a sweet baratone while Bitty is an alto. -
That is super you have a baby does the Baroo. Both of ours Baroo and Mr BaRoo & Bitty your so correct what a harmony.

WTG but I soooo have baroo envy.Me too!!! Sonny baroo's at my mom everytime she comes in the house when he visits my parents but he has never barooed for me….EVER :mad:

Nothing cuter than baby baroos. If you can get him right as he is about to do it you might be able to give it a command. I was able to train both Ruby and Brando to give it on command for their dinner. It is pretty funny because Brando's baroo is so completely different than Ruby's …hers is so melodic, and his is so deep and masculine.
