Dogs always like to bark, which not only disturbs the residents, but also makes the guests who come to your home feel very embarrassed! How to stop the dog from barking? It is very important to use the right method! Let’s take a look at these small methods!

Generally, ox knee bones are used as bones for dogs to bite, because ox knee bones contain fat and tendons in addition to bones, allowing dogs to try their best to chew off the delicious meat on them and then crush the bones. In this way, the dog will not have the intention to bark, and the dog parents can go about their own business with peace of mind. In addition, chewing hard bones for dogs can clean the tartar on the surface of the dog's teeth and make the dog's teeth healthier.

Playing with toys to keep dogs quiet

Dog parents can first rub their dog’s favorite toys with their hands to keep their own scent on the toys. When the dog parent is not visible, the dog will spend time looking for the owner's scent on the toys and forget about barking. At the same time, the fun the toy brought to it also diverted its attention and stopped barking.

There are many reasons for dogs to bark, and some dogs bark because of the mental stress of being separated from their parents, so they bark non-stop. Giving toys to dogs is a soothing practice. Let the toys act as a clone of the dog's parent, making the dog feel that the parent is with him and reducing barking. Of course, if you are willing to sacrifice a pair of old shoes or a piece of clothing that you have worn, you can also use it as a toy for your dog to play with, because there will be residual smell of the dog’s parents on it, which will make the dog feel more at ease.

Chat to keep the dog quiet

Sometimes dogs keep barking just to convey a certain message to the dog parents, such as loneliness, lack of security, etc. If the dog's parent responds appropriately and expresses appreciation, the dog will naturally shut up.

Dogs also need care. No matter how busy they are, dog parents should stop and talk to their dogs gently, so that their dogs can feel that their parents still care about them. Whenever the dog starts barking, call its name and talk to it to attract its attention. Make the dog feel that paying attention to the dog's parent is more interesting than barking. Remember not to come over and scold your dog when it is barking loudly. This will definitely have the opposite effect and the dog will bark louder and louder.

Small rewards keep dogs quiet

If the dog keeps barking, the dog parent should immediately reprimand it in a firm tone: "Quiet." When the dog stops barking, the dog parent may wish to give some snacks or praise to show encouragement. Doing this will let the dog know that being obedient and staying quiet will please the dog's parents.

Dogs are small animals that like praise and love vanity. If they are obedient, they will stop barking.If you bark, you must reward it in time. Sometimes just verbal praise is useless. You must also give the dog something practical. For example, when it comes to food rewards, the food should be small enough for the dog to swallow in one bite, and it should be full of fragrance and tempting to the dog, so that the dog can feel comforted and rewarded. However, don’t give too much, otherwise the dog will mistakenly think that it will get food if it barks.
