Oppressive, exhausting and frustrating
A barking dog, even if it doesn't bite, can tire us out a lot. The strong voice, the dog's receptivity and persistence when barking, make the action exhausting for us, especially when the dog does not listen to us when we demand it to stop. However, the dog's barking is natural, because it is the routine way of communication for him, similar to language for us. The barking may be due to emotions such as anger, boredom or fear or alternatively due to physical needs such as thirst, hunger or a desire to go for a walk. Although barking is unpleasant, it is very important that we know how to deal with it properly and give the right answer to our beloved dog even when we have run out of patience for barking. To help you deal with this complex problem, we have put together some tips that can help. Successfully!

Above all - composure
When the dog barks there is always our natural tendency to shout at him "enough!" Or "Enough!", to make him understand that we are not happy with the barking. Although there is willingness and desire, often the dog perceives our scolding as barking and thinks we are joining him. Therefore, even though we sometimes feel otherwise - yelling is not likely to help. Instead, it is important that you express your dissatisfaction through a physical correction (slight pulling), a look or a quiet and assertive voice - these will already convey the message.

Help him spend energy
A barking dog is often a dog that hasn't spent enough energy outside or is feeling bored. If you want to make an energetic dog stop barking, the thing required is of course to take him for a walk. Take him to the nearest dog park, for a walk in the neighborhood and maybe also to the pet store that is nearby - any escape from the house will be blessed.

Find the cause of the problem
The next time you hear the dog barking, try to understand what the source of the problem is. Sometimes it is a matter of distinguishing people outside the house through the window of the house or the yard, sometimes a real desire for attention and sometimes, a lack of water in a bowl or a desire to signal a feeling of hunger. Try to understand your dog, keep him away from the factor that discourages him and if necessary - meet his physical needs. The barking dog does not always communicate only with his canine friends, but sometimes with us as well - be attentive to him. In addition, if there is a constant factor that causes your beloved dog to bark like a guest knocking on the door - take out the snacks, wait for him to shut up and shower him with compliments. This way you can educate him to get used to the stimulating stimulus and along the way, also make him happy with a little treat.
