It is interesting to note that the domesticated dog is barking more often than their ancestors. Perhaps because many races have learned to bark, to a better performance of different tasks for which they were raised - Protection, sheep, monitoring.
Today, your dog will find many reasons to bark, even if it is relegated to the bottom 40 acres protected by poachers or corralling sheep and goats in the living room. He can bark to assert dominance, to defend his territory;of loneliness, frustration, if not his way; pent-up energy, noise, excessive restriction or strangers in the house. Some dogs are predisposed cortex much more than others. The small, highly stringent breeds - Yorkies, Schnauzers, Beagles - are well known for their persistent barking, barking and Newfoundland, Bloodhound, Greyhounds and Rottweilers rare.
Of course, as rescue dogs are many varieties mutt, you can not be sure what your genesPack dog.
Although it is not realistic or even necessary to wait for your dog to stop barking completely, you should be happy to finally take control of incessant barking annoying. Before you start your exercise program, make sure there are at least partly responsible for the problem barking of your dog.
They jump up and take your dog for a walk when it barks at the door? If barking is the box on the counter to make cookies,They give one? He has to bark when you leave the room, making the trip to the fridge and forget about rush on the sofa to keep the peace? In short, do not reward in any way, barking, what he wants.
But whatever the cause of your dog's barking has shown that behavioral techniques are used to teach him not to bark, unless to do so may be required.
First, the level of 10,000 feet, well exercised, healthy dog who hashad socialization training will probably be less inclined to be a fool, a constant barker. So be sure that these bases are covered. Inevitably, there will still be cases in which the problem must be nipped in the cold, wet nose so to speak.
Of course, like any corrective action training, you need to scold the dog, while in the act. Otherwise, your actions will be "living the moment" only create confusion in your mind the dog. And, of course, always be readyAwards for good behavior with treats zoo, and praise. Make sure to use the phrase all the other workouts - if not bark, "Good dog - YES - NO bark" is a phrase that I learned to use educational resources to be referenced below.
Of course, the commands are not always sufficient by themselves. As the climate system is not necessary. For example, if your dog starts barking when you leave, before trying the door. Once the first barkreleased, the door with a solid "no bark" or "quiet". Do this repeatedly until the dog is able moment of silence for five minutes or more in a row. Then deliver the "good dog - YES - NO bark" with a treat. Like any training, patience and perseverance will be required. We hope that you will not need to replace the hinges on the door before achieving success.
If the dog is the guy who barks orders at you all day while you relax in your chair, trying tothe old "I'll ignore" tactics. If you have been married as long as I do, you should be good at that already. Just turn your head or get up and walk out of sight, until the barking stops. If you do not follow him any attention or even eye contact with it unless the stops barking - then praise him adequately.
If these techniques fail to some extent a little drastic, like moving a dog whistle, a simple water jethis face, or a loud applause inches from snout until it connects with the barking of "punishment". Praise him when he starts. I hope your dog, as opposed to your children is, even if not all of his youth, before he understands what behavior is expected of him.
There are also several "patches" you can use to keep your mind as you progress through this training.
If he ran away, because you tried to correct him, put him on a leashis close enough to associate the reprimand with the bad behavior. If you find that out loud sounds seem to set off a frenzy of barking, play music, or leave on a radio or TV. If he is excited by the outside activity, close the curtains. Again, as I think of this as a temporary measure until the formation works. It's not a good thing, if you change your lifestyle for your dog to have adapted well and quietly.
Once you're in the failure of the successorBark on command, it would be wise to go the distance education through the use of dual technology - SPEAK quiet. Again, this was for me in an eBook available on the resource I have explained, with reference.
Step 1 - Bring your dog to bark on command. This requires a series of trafficking, praise, and the old 1-2 punch, patience and perseverance. The command is "talk". When a bark followed immediately rewarded with a gift. AlternateTreatment with praise, because there will be times when it comes to pruning all your dog person. Praise immediately after the first bark, so your dog does not return to his old way of barking relentlessly. If you and your teammates have learned this step, go ahead ...
Step 2 - Bring your dog to be quiet on command. This is a critical part, but hard training. Even with a bag full of goodies, enter the commandYour dog learned to bark - SPEAK. But this time, let your dog continues to bark through the refusal of treatment. Start then quietly repeating the word until the barking stops. Then immediately to treat or praise. They must be taken in two parts technical work every day for 10-15 minute sessions. But not beyond your dog can pay attention. Soon, your efforts dividends with a beautiful dog that knows when to speak and do, payto hear when.
