Heredity gave dogs voices but there are ways to correct most of the sounds that come from dogs. Dogs in Durhamswood that bark at the noise 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 an unknown person comes to your Durhamswood door but you should train 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 pet owners is the barking at objects such as a broom or wheelchairs. These are all items a pet can learn to live with quietly. Running the property lines and barking at your Durhamswood neighbors and their dogs is not acceptable bad dog behavior either. This "distance" barking can be corrected through training sometimes needing a mild shock collar so you can correct your canine from inside the house. 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 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 canine when it's time to be quiet when they hear the proper command.
