Heredity gave dogs voices but there are ways to control most of the sounds that come from your pet. Dogs in Chenequa 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 Chenequa house but you should train them that an "okay" from you means everything is fine and your dog guardian can stop making noise.
Another complaint we hear from pet owners is the whining at objects such as a broom or tractors. These are all things a dog can learn to live with quietly. Running the property lines and barking at your Chenequa neighbors and their dogs should not be tolerated 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 from a distance. It really doesn't take long for them to learn.
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.
If your dog's relentless 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 Chenequa house.
