Heredity gave dogs voices but there are steps to control most of the sounds that come from man's best friend. Dogs in Calumet City that bark at the sound of the house's doorbell or a knock on the door need to be taught a greeting ritual. It is their job to bark when a stranger comes to your Calumet City door but you should train them that an OK command from you means you have the situation under control and your protector can stop growling.
Another concern we hear from dog owners is the barking at objects such as a shovel or walkers. These are all items a pet can learn to live with quietly. Watching out the window and barking at your Calumet City neighbors and their dogs is not acceptable bad dog behavior either. This "distance" barking can be corrected through training sometimes needing a mild shock collar so you can correct your canine from inside the from a distance. It really doesn't take long for them to learn.
It's important for you to remember that a dog's hearing is over two hundred times better than your hearing. He can hear his dog food being taken out of the car truck in the garage. He will respond with his voice. You just need to learn how to teach your canine when it's time to be quiet when they hear the correct signal.
