Is It Possible To Stop A Dog From Barking?
"Nuisance Barking Can Be Controlled"
I think every dog owner has at one time or another wondered how they can stop a dog from
barking. What you really should be asking though is why do dogs bark? Although their barking can at times seem
quite annoying it really is their way of talking to us. Although you may wonder why do they have to yell at
us!
Certain types of barking you do not want to discourage. For instance when your dog barks to
let you know he has to go out to potty this type of barking should not be discouraged.
Trying to stop a dog from barking for long periods of time that is what most dog owners have a problem with. In
these situations the dog may be doing this out of boredom. Make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise and this
could help solve your problem. Also make sure you give your dog a good selection of chew toys that will help occupy
his time.
In order to stop a dog from barking never reward his nuisance behaviour. Try and redirect his behaviour by calling
him and making him sit. By redirecting his behaviour it will stop a dog from barking. Immediately give the command
you are going to use to stop him from barking and then reward him.
Remember your dog does need to bark sometimes so do not overdo your quiet command.
Allow him a couple of barks before telling him quiet. After all you do not want to stop a dog from barking all the
time - to be totally silent - if that was the case you probably should not have a dog as a pet.
