Our dog is mostly a quiet dog. Pensive, philosophical, we like to think. He only barks for three reasons.
1. Please love me - A very polite little grunt to indicate he'd like to come back inside with us.
2. Please play with me - Big happy yelps to demand that another dog or friendly-looking human come on over and play with him.
3. Hey, what are you? - Territorial growls and ranting barks filled with bravado to ward off humans with skateboards, bicycles, large hoods, children on their shoulders, big coats or any other extensions that make them just not look the right shape to his limited dog eyes.
Seems like the reasons most of us make noise too.
