Oh Moffin, it sounds like you moved into a doggie neighborhood! That is a good thing, because it means the other hoomans will have some understanding too.

Now, this Bark Fest, it seems to be because everyone is talking and no one is listening. Maybe you could have some play dates and meet all your fellow contestants? One at a time, of course! And meet out on the sidewalk so no one is on home territory. Then you could just touch noses between the fence to say hi after you get to know each other.

I think everyone has to learn there are new doggies in the area and remember where their territories are. It will take some work on the part of the hoomans; you canines are very smart and will figure it all out with a little bit of help.

I bet more of you Pet Talk friends will have some ideas for you, Moffin.
