Heredity gave dogs voices but there are steps to control most of the sounds that come from man's best friend. Dogs in Posen that bark at the sound of the family'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 Posen house but you should train them that an "okay" from you means everything is fine and your dog guardian can stop barking.
Another concern we hear from dog owners is the whining at objects such as a shovel or tractors. These are all items a pet can learn to live with quietly. Running the property lines and barking at your Posen neighbors and their dogs is not acceptable bad dog behavior either. This "distance" barking can be corrected through training sometimes needing a mild zap collar so you can correct your pet from inside the home. It really doesn't take long for them to learn.
It's important for you to 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 trainer a call or click to set up an appointment. Frank would be happy to schedule a private session in your Posen house.
