Heredity gave dogs voices but there are ways to correct most of the sounds that come from your pet. Dogs in Avon 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 an unknown person comes to your Avon house but you should teach them that an "okay" from you means everything is fine and your protector can stop barking.
Another complaint we hear from dog owners is the barking at objects such as a broom or walkers. These are all items a canine can learn to live with quietly. Watching out the window and barking at your Avon neighbors and their dogs should not be tolerated 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 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 dog when it's time to be quiet when they hear the proper command.
