Heredity gave dogs voices but there are steps to control most of the sounds that come from your pet. Dogs in Christilla Heights 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 Christilla Heights door but you should train them that an OK command from you means everything is fine and your dog guardian can stop growling.
Another complaint we hear from dog owners is the whining at objects such as a shovel or tractors. These are all items a canine can learn to live with quietly. Watching out the window and barking at your Christilla Heights neighbors and their dogs should not be tolerated bad dog behavior either. This "distance" barking can be corrected through training sometimes needing a mild zap 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 two hundred times better than your hearing. He can hear the sound of a child riding a tricycle several houses away. 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 correct signal.
If your dog's behavior problem is an issue you would like to correct, please give Frank Allison, dog behaviorist a call or click to set up an appointment. Frank would be happy to schedule a private session in your Christilla Heights home.
