Smeraglia's Doodle Forum

Debbie, thanks for your post! Its funny you mention hearing the bells, we have a big house and I was worried about not hearing them. I see online there are so many different types, the ones that hang and actually a large bell for the floor that dog just puts his paw on, I am wondering which bells work most effectively, might try a few out.....
