You undoubtably have more dog experience than me, but my experience is completely the opposite. I've only known one dog that was a barker. Oh - lie. There's one across the road from here that goes off at about midday and carries on intermittently til about four. Drives me crazy, but apparantly no-one even noticed it til I started pointing it out.

Then again it's not common to keep dogs outside in England (smaller yards probably). That might be the difference.
