Startling Sounds Will Stop Barking Dogs
Dogs hate to be startled by sudden, loud noises (who doesn’t?), and you can use that to your advantage when you’re trying to stop a barking dog. When the dog barks, say “Quiet” or “Hush” in a firm tone as you either roll a newspaper and makes noise by hitting the table or wall—no need to throw it at your pup.) The sound will startle the dog, and he’ll stop barking. He’ll also learn the “Quiet” command, which is an invaluable dog training success.
Stop Your Dog Barking With Music
If your dog’s barking excessively whenever you leave your house or apartment, your pooch may be suffering from a mild case of separation anxiety. One way to put a lid on the barking is to make your dog feel as though she’s not alone. Some folks accomplish this with a soothing bark stopper: Turning a radio on when they leave the house. White noise can block out street sounds that can suddenly become intimidating when the pack leader (that’s you) is away. Music stations are an especially good choice because the rhythm is soothing to pets.
Chew Off a Dog Barking Problem
You may be able to keep your pooch occupied in your absence by leaving her a good chew toy. Before you leave the house, rub your hands all over the toy. Your scent will make it more appealing, which will make it more likely that she’ll chew it. And she only has one mouth: If she’s chewing, she won’t be barking.
There’s one thing that can make a chew toy more enticing than leaving your scent on it—leaving food in it. Your dog will be so busy trying to get the food out that she may not have the time or the inclination to bark.
hope this help :D
