Barking comes in many different forms. This makes how to stop a dog from barking more complicated than we think.
We can't just ask "how do I stop my dog from barking?" and get an answer because why they are barking plays a significant role in how we stop them.
Are they barking in the crate? Are they barking at you? Are they barking at your neighbor? Do they only bark when on a leash? Even if you answered "yes" to more than one, how you address the barking will change depending on the situation.
In this two-part series, I'm going dive deep into two different types of barking demand barking (part 1) and alert barking (part 2).
I have some previous episodes that go into some other types of barking. I've listed those episodes below.
In this episode I talk about:
- Why stopping a dog from barking is complicated.
- The different types of barking.
- What techniques I don't use.
- How to address demand barking.
- Examples of different scenarios and how to handle them.
Press play and enjoy!
