Asking Eric: My sister-in-law’s yapping dogs get on my nerves during her visits
Dear Eric: My sister-in-law, who I love and have known since she was a child, recently bought two small “doodle” dogs. She brought them with her for an overnight, weekend visit. They barked at every little sound – a person coming into the room, door opening/closing. My sister-in-law’s response to her dogs was ineffective.
