How can I teach my dog to stop barking?

my dog wont stop barking evertime he wants to he’ll just sit there and go woof woof…lol…and then if we say NO he just does it again how can I tgeach him 2 stop

Answer #1

I totally have the answer for you - get the PetSafe (or whatever brand) citrus spray collar. It’s like a shock collar but instead of shocking the dog it sprays a light citrus mist near their nose which they don’t like the smell of.

It works AMAZINGLY. And this way you don’t have to always be in close contact to get your dog to start barking. I don’t know about yours, but mine would back far enough away to where I couldn’t tap her and would stop if I said NO but would start as soon as I walked away. This collar fixed it %100 and I only used it for about 6 months. It’s two years later now and she still doesn’t bark unless she should.

Answer #2

Why exactly does he bark? My dog used to bark to get my attention and as soon as I stopped giving her attention when she barked, she stopped. Maybe you should try giving him a HUGE amount of attention when he is quiet and ignore him TOTALLY when he barks?

I don’t agree with tapping dogs on their noses, that way he’ll probably just run away while barking.lol.

Answer #3

try tapping him on his nose whenever you scold him. it’s sensitive for them so they usually don’t like that…my dog hated it lol

Answer #4

grab his mouth and hold it look him in the eye and tell him no (ps the dog trainers use it it works)

Answer #5

lol I hug my dog when she barks and she eventually stops, but tapping yourr dog on the nose should work :]

Answer #6

Answer #7

Answer #8

I have been having a problem with my neighbors lately and it seems like they are letting their dogs bark on purpose. I thought that there was nothing that I could do since they were not my dogs but apparently I was wrong.

There were a few products that I tried but none seemed to work until I bought The Barking Dog CD. It really works and it is so easy to use. To say that I was impressed is an understatement.

You can check it out for yourself at [link removed] if you want to try it.

It will work for your dog also.

Answer #9

[link removed] will work.
