He’s super vocal though so I’ve had time to learn.
He’s got a kind of honk that’s for initiating play.
A polite “buf” that’s an attention/request noise (though it can intensify with agitation).
And then a smorgasbord of stress or demand barks that can blur together a bit but often can be worked out in combination with frequency and body language.
Plus also the manic “that’s my purse. I don’t know you.” He reserves for when he hears anything like a dog near our house.
I know my guy’s barks pretty well.
