Hey Dog Lovers,
Barking is a very common behavior issue millions of dog owners suffer with. There are many different techniques that you can use to stop barking. It is important to know that not all dogs respond the same to barking corrections. That is because there are too many variables involved.
Alert Barking
Your dog’s way of letting you know they have seen or heard something out of the ordinary. This is a normal behavior for dogs but not our favorite.
Tip: Try to give your dog mental stimulation when you are at home to distract them from alter barking.
“Thank you Ma’am or Sir” Method
When your dog starts alert barking, instead of yelling across the house, get up and walk over to where your dog is barking at and look around. Typically your dog will look up to you to see what to do next. When they do say “Thank you” and walk away. The dog should now be calm.
