Heredity gave dogs voices but there are procedures to correct most of the sounds that come from dogs. Dogs in Flossmoor Highlands that bark at the sound of the house's doorbell or a knock on the door need to be taught your preferred doggy behavior. It is their job to bark when a stranger comes to your Flossmoor Highlands house but you should teach them that an "okay" from you means everything is fine and your protector can stop making noise.
Another concern we hear from pet owners is the whining at objects such as a shovel or tractors. These are all things a canine can learn to live with quietly. Watching out the window and barking at your Flossmoor Highlands 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 dog from inside the home. It really doesn't take long for them to learn.
Most importantly, you must remember that a dog's hearing is over 200x 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 pet when it's time to be quiet when they hear the correct signal.
If endless dog barking is an issue you would like to correct, please give Frank Allison, dog obedience trainer a call or click to set up an appointment. Frank would be happy to schedule a private session in your Flossmoor Highlands house.
