The Dogs Who Berks All Day Long!

Barking Dogs:
Dogs are a very innocent type of creature. They look strong and
sometimes very cute. They play a vital role in a man’s life as a pet, as a
friend. As an animal, they can’t talk like a human. So, they used to
“Bark” to communicate with other dogs. But…

These days, dogs are getting very rude. They quarrel most of the times
with other dogs. Sometimes it gets worse. They can harm themselves or
people seriously. Because when they fight or bark on each other, they
don’t have care of anything that comes in their way. So, it is really
essential for us to figure out a way to stop dogs from barking.

Reasons of barking:
Every dog has a reason behind their barking. They bark of hunger,
fear, anger, etc. But those who are friendly or pets, usually don’t
create any mischief of barking. The problem is very often created by
the street dogs. Cause most of them have no fear of humans. On
their quarrels with their own and sometimes men are harmed too. A
man should do below activities when he finds a dog barking:

I. Stay calm.
II. Try to ignore him.
III. Take another way to go (If available)
IV. Choose the best time to cross him.
Initiative to stop barking dogs:
Some initiatives are very helpful to stop barking dogs. Those are best
for your pet usually.

Here they go:

1. Removing the motivation:

Some dog barks to get reward. So, you need to find out what he gets
out of barking. So, firstly stop giving your dog whatever he wants when
he barks. This may take some time if he has been getting reward upon
barking for many years.

As, for example:

 Stop moving or back away if he barks. Then you can ready to walk
forward when he quiets down.

2. Ignoring barking behavior:

Some dogs bark while seeking attention. It means not to give any
attention to his barking at all. In order to be successful with the
method, you need to keep patience as long as it takes time for him to
stop barking.

As, for example:

 If your dog is barking, do not scream at him or let him do

whatever he wants. Don’t try to even look at her. The best way to
 distract yourself, like reading books or listening songs till your dog
quiets down.

3. Rewarding on good behavior:

Dogs are very ideal type of animal. They catch things in their mind very
fast and remember them wisely. So if he does a good thing or finishes a
task nicely, then it is essential for him to get rewarded. So he will be
more aggressive on his next task to complete it finely. It also can
remain him calm and polite to his master or others. The reward can be
a food he likes, a toy, cuddle, lots of love, etc.

4. Train up the dog with “speak” command:

It may sound nonessential but, the first step of this technique is to

teach the dog to bark on command. Give the dog the command to
“speak”, and then wait for him to bark, and then give him something
tasty to eat in front of his nose to make him feel greed of it. When he
tries to take the treat, praise him and give him the treat. Repeat this
technique until he starts barking as soon as say “speak”.

5. Asking for an incompatible behavior:

When a dog starts barking, ask him to do something that is

incompatible with barking. Teaching a dog to react, to barking incentive
with something that inhibits him from barking, such as lying down the
bed.
6. Keeping your dog tired:

Make sure the dog is getting sufficient physical and mental exercise
every day. Because a tired dog is a good dog and one who is less likes to
bark from boredom or frustration. Depending on his breed, age and
health, the dog may require several long walks as well as a good game
of chasing the ball and playing with some interactive toys.

Barking is actually a natural dog behavior. When it is unbearable,

we need to stop barking dogs. Again, the above tactics are successful,
but these may take some time to stop barking dog. The more the dog
has been practicing the barking behavior, the longer it will take time to
change himself.
