YNP #066: How to Stop a Dog From Barking (Part 1)

Barking comes in many different forms. This makes how to stop a dog from barking more complicated than we think.  We can't just ask "how do I stop my dog from barking?" and get an answer because why they are barking plays a significant role in how we stop them.  Are they barking in the crate?  Are they barking at you?  Are they barking at your neighbor?  Do they only bark when on a leash?  Even if you answered "yes" to more than one, how you address the barking will change depending on the situation.  In this two-part series, I'm going dive deep into two different types of barking demand barking (part 1) and alert barking (part 2).  I have some previous episodes that go into some other types of barking.  I've listed those episodes below. In this episode I talk about:* Why stopping a dog from barking is complicated.* The different types of barking.* What techniques I don't use.* How to address demand barking. * Examples of different scenarios and how to handle them.Press play and enjoy!Other resources mentioned and related to this episode:Episodes to help with barking while crate training:YNP #005: Crate Training: How (and Why) to Make Their Crate Your Dog’s Best FriendYNP Special Edition: Q&A Tuesday – Crate TrainingYNP #028: 5 Reasons to Use the Crate When You’re Home.Episode to help with barking because of separation anxiety:YNP #022: How to Prevent and Treat Separation AnxietyEpisode to help with barking while on a leash:YNP #047: How to Handle a Reactive Dog on a LeashOther resources:YOUR Perfect Puppy: 4-week online training course for you and your new puppy.
