We have a Wheaton Terrier male. For the first few months he never barked at all! Doorbell, if people were on my property, but at about the 4th,5th month on his own he changed. Now he barks at the doorbell, barks if someone is on my property, barks at odd noises at night. I like it! Give it time, your dog will start on his/her own.
