Excessive Barking, Barking, Barking...

How Can You Stop The Noise?

Heredity gave dogs voices but there are steps to correct most of the sounds that come from canine pets.  Dogs in Flossmoor that bark at the noise 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 house but you should teach them that an "okay" from you means you have the situation under control and your dog guardian can stop barking.

Another complaint we hear from dog owners is the whining at objects such as vacuum cleaners or tractors. These are all items a canine can learn to live with quietly. Watching out the window and barking at your Flossmoor neighbors and their dogs is not acceptable inappropriate 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 from a distance.  This unacceptable dog behavior can be corrected in a short period of time.

It's important for you to remember that a dog's hearing is over two hundred times better than your hearing.  He can hear a squirrel running up a tree.  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.
