This is the third episode in the series of Barking. In this episode I will show you the beginning exercises on how to teach your dog not to bark on a walk. Stay tuned and Subscribe to see other exercises that are very useful for reactive dogs and dogs that are hyperactive. All these exercises benefit ANY dog, not just fearful, reactive or aroused dogs. These same exercises are GREAT for dogs with little impulse control, the kind of dog that wants to pull towards everything on a walk. ———————– When a dog becomes aroused or reactive, it is due to chemicals being released by the brain, effecting the dogs behavior. Not only does a dogs behavior change because of these chemicals and stress hormones, but their heart beat, respiration, and blood flow will change too. Jerking a dogs neck will not reduce these chemicals, instead it will INCREASE them. Barking can be reinforcing, so the more a dog is allowed to bark the more likely they will continue barking in the future. When you and your dog are surprised on a walk and your dog starts to bark, simply say “Let’s Go” and move briskly in the opposite direction. You can use this cue whenever you change direction unexpectedly or need to move from an area that is causing your dog to be over their threshold. Here are some tips: 1-when on a walk cross the street to set your dog up for success 2-If you have a very fearful or reactive dog, simply change the direction of your walk when you see something your dog wont be able …

This dog training video outlines a plan for beginning to counter condition a dog to certain types of people that a dog becomes reactive to. This video can also be used as a way to socialize young puppies to weird things in the environment. Another useful application of these exercises would be for a dog and handler team practicing to take a Canine Good Citizen test, as well as proofing a Therapy dog or Service dog for all types of situations they might encounter while on the job. It is very common for dogs to become reactive to anything out of the ordinary. We have selectively bred them to be this way. Many dogs will become reactive or show fear to stimuli such as a weird hat, a cane, a walker, a stroller, a person with bags, a big jacket, strange movement and anything that changes a persons profile. You can set up training games to change your dogs emotional response from fear or arousal to calm friendliness using counter conditioning. Watch this video to check out what you can do. ——– Another thing you can do to speed up the process, is to leave these scary items around in your house for the dog to habituate to and investigate. You can also wear them. If your dog is fearful of people with gloves, wear gloves when you watch TV in the evening every once in a while. Put on a different scary item before you put down your dogs dinner bowl. ——- If at any point the dog were to become reactive, simply say ‘let’s go’ to the dog, and when the dog has stopped reacting you …

The Only Dog Training Book You Will Ever Need: From Avoiding Accidents to Banishing Barking, the Basics for Raising a Well-Behaved Dog

My dog barks everynight, around 4 am in the morning, he wake up not only my husband and I, also wakes up my baby. Anyone tried this product? is it working for your dog? I researched it, it comes in 3 types, the citrane, static, and noise. Which one work well?

We have an extremely annoying neighbor behind us. Their dogs bark a lot from the morning until the afternoon. When the dogs stopped, you enjoy the silence only for a short time. They bark for several minutes then they stop, after a break they bark again. It continues for hours.

I read online, that I could buy an anti barking unit for my back yard. But I read that it does not work. They have a wall around their yard. An anti barking collar might work.

I wrote them notes several times. They don’t care and let them bark. I have to call animal control. On their web site their wrote: “Unlawful barking is defined as a period of five (5) minutes of barking during a 15-minute interval at any time of day.”

An example: The dog starts to bark at 8 AM and barks for 3 minutes, stops and at 8:10 he barks for 2 minutes. Would that count 5 minutes?
In our old neighborhood was a big dog. When he barked, his voice was deep. If he barked for 5 minutes it was not that irritating. When our new neighbor’s dogs bark, it’s a very squeaky high sound that drives you crazy even if he barks just for seconds.

I hate this neighbor, who destroys our life. He is a public nuisance by disturbing our peace, comfort, health and repose. We can never go into our back yard because that would start dog barking.

Do anti barking collars work?

11 year old cross terriers ……..would anti barking collar hurt them ? if not what is the best?please advise.they howl when left alone.and if let out they bark quite badly at people going past.when door goes its a race beetween them to get there and bark the loudest i have to hold them back to answer door.i have had them from pups and maybe i have let them develop bad habits but i have a new neighbour who is threatining court action unless i can keep them quiet when im out at work.

I really need your help! DONT want to put her up for adoption!!
Let me clerify, she is a wonderful dog. Very well behaved & already trained. But she barks all night long for any slight noise she hears & when I have company it goes on for 30 minutes or more!

Hi we are a family of a 7 month old beagle. We rescued him when he was 6 weeks old. He was only 2lbs when we got him, abused, under nourished and very sick. Well he is 18lbs now, very healthy and loves us and we love him to death. We have never had a dog before as I always knew the work would end up on me and as a mom of 4 children I knew it would be like having another child. Will it is……lol, but I LOVE him. My oldest son who is 16 has really bonded to him and he has become his primary owner. He is the one who baths him, brushes him, feeds, walks, trains etc. Our beagle loves my son so much and cries when he has to go to school out in the evenings. My son cannot even go to the bath room without the puppy sitting outside the door crying. He is “really” like a baby. If my son is sitting on the sofa with him, our puppy will climb up with a toy and then drop it on the floor so my son will pay him some attention and pick it up for him. Just like a baby right?
Anyway, I think because this puppy was taken away from his mother so young and being abused he has real separation anxiety issues. But we are dealing with this ok. He sleeps alone at night in a crate and is ok when we have to leave to go out, if we leave the TV on for noise. He is GREAT with our kids and kids in general, but BOY DOES HE BARK…………….

So this is my problem………. I know beagles are “barkers” and I am ok with this and having 4 children we are a noisy house anyway. He gets lots of exercise in the evenings when the kids are home and they take him for long walks and the kids LOVE to play with him. He is NOT an aggressive dog at all and loves people. So when we are out on a walk he will bark at EVERYTHING and EVERYBODY so very loud and you cannot get him to stop. Or if someone rings the door bell or knocks on the door, he is at it again with the barking. It is SO loud it actually hurts your ears.

I would like to learn how to train him to not bark so very much. I understand that he is a dog and a beagle and wants, actually needs to bark. But I was wondering if there was a way to control it so it does not go on so long. So if someone comes to the door he will bark for about a few seconds then stop.

I would LOVE to be able to send him to get “training” lessons from someone qualified, but unfortunately in this economy we cannot afford it. I was reading a lot about using an anti-bark or shock collar; has anyone ever used one? Any success with using them? Are they harmful to the dog? We will not use anything that will hurt our puppy and only want to be able to train him to be polite and well trained.

Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks…..
Just wanted to thank everyone for the great advice!!!!!

2 weeks ago I became the owner of a rescue dog, part shitsu part pamarainian (sp?) he is 3 years old, very sweet, loveable, wonderful personality, I love him, but his barking drives me INSANE. Do these collars really work?????

Anyone have any experience with this device?
We have a Rottweiler that barks non-stop at a donkey that is in a pasture next to him. It’s past the point of annoying…It’s become an obsession and it’s ridiculous.
We provide him with plenty of exercise, toys and chews galore as well as having another Rott as a companion.
There is no reason, other than obsessive barking that this dog is doing this…
Do these collars work or would I be wasting my $$?
The dog has grown up with the donkey, so it’s not that he’s being protective. It’s simply become an obsessive game for the dog.
The dogs are in a solid fence 48′ wide and 160′ long. There are only 2 dogs in there, so there is plenty of room to run. They are on leash for about 40 mins each day when we go for our evening walks and off leash, playing in the lake and running through the pastures or being lazy in the grass as I garden or do other chores. They have a very nice lifestyle and are well cared for. This isn’t a boredom issue… The dog in question is not yet 2 years old and our 4 year old Rott seems to be annoyed with the pups obsessive barking at the donkey as well.

I do have a shock collar system that I had to purchase to reinforce my commands NOT to kill the poultry. (high drive-was necessary) BUT I can’t be there in the middle of the night…24/7 to correct.
If the anti-bark collar works at night and early morning before breakfast (7am)
I think (hope) it will help him realize that he has many better things to do.
I just didn’t want to invest in something that wasn’t effective.
The donkey could stand right next to the dog lot/run all day, ignoring the dog and that dog would bark at him. Or, he could be out grazing in the pasture and that dog would be focused on him there too.
This is past the point of crazy.
Moving the kennel isn’t an option because I think he would do the same with the cattle or even the goats.
It’s just an obsession he’s become accustom to and is in need of breaking from real quick. )
Oh, and Ann…. You’re correct, I DO inquire with others about a product prior to purchasing. I’d say that makes me pretty wise. )

Don’t be so offended… Not everyone is going to think you’re as intelligent as you think you are.
Bottom line is, “it is what it is”… right? )

A dog barking is enough to really send both you and your neighbours to the brink of frustration.  If this is your dog that is barking then it can become really stressful.  I know what this feels like, I personally was on the brink of having my dogs being taken off me for that very reason.  People these days are very quick to complain to the authorties rather than actually spending the time to come and see you personally.

You can train your dog to stop barking.  This can be effective, however, it can take awhile to actually stop them, especially if you are working during the time they are barking and you personally can not apply corrective behaviour.  The good news is that you do not have to be there to train them.  There are anti bark collars which do all the hard work for you.  

A static collar is one of two different types of anti bark collars on the market.  The static anti bark collar has a small box attached to the collar, that emits a vibration only when your dog barks.  These collars have no electricity in them, they only sent the dog a vibration, which does not send the dog cowering in the corner in pain.  It only makes the dog feel uncomfortable, and makes him correct his barking.  

The other type of anti bark collar is a citronella collar.  This is very similar to a static anti bark collar, except the only difference is that in stead of shocking the dog, it sprays citronella near the dogs face.  Dogs hate the smell of citronella, and they will soon learn that when they bark they get this smell in their face.  This is a good alternative if you just can not see yourself using the vibration anti bark collar.

Anti bark collars are really the best way to train your dog to stop barking.  An anti bark collar is fast and very effective.  The barking collars are not inhuman as the static collar does not have any electricity in it and will not cause your dog to start cowering in the corner in pain.  Do not let your dog be taken away from his family all because he is barking.
