How do I get the dogs to stop barking?
I'm supposed to be at this clients house for an overnight stay. She was very kind and bought me some fruits and provided me with essential toiletries and whatnot.
The only thing is, her dogs don't seem to like me. She has six dachshunds and they don't stop barking. I'm 45 minutes into the sit, and it's been nearly nonstop. I tried sitting on the floor with them, holding my hand out, and removing myself from the room. They just keep on going unless they're taking water breaks. I'm not even doing anything to seem aggressive (in fact half of the time they're not even looking at me when barking). I think they're just barking because they hear another one barking. Like dog mob mentality.
I always thought I was good with dogs, but this is making me doubt myself, ahh. Any advice?
