Dogs which are habitual barkers are a nuisance to
Wedding Dressesthose who must live
around them. Dogs will bark habitually because they are untrained,
bored, uncomfortable or anxious. Dogs bark for a number of reasons,
including loneliness boredom or frustration attention seeking defending
their territory medical problems. Dogs must have a warm, draught free
kennel and should be fed in the evening to ensure that they sleep while
we sleep. They love to be part of household activities and will often
bark in protest at being put outside. Dogs will also bark as part of a
chain reaction: one dog barks at something and others join in. Dogs may
bark at their owners to get what they want or when they are being
ignored.
Some of the dogs more likely to bark are the smaller
Beach Wedding Dressesvery active and
alert breeds. Large dogs do have louder barks but they are also deeper
in tone and may not carry as far or be any more annoying than a shriller
bark from a small dog. When a dog barks at someone at the front door it
should be praised, then when you go to the door the dog should be given
the command to stop barking. These dogs should be taught to respond to
the word "quiet" as well as being made to see being put outside as
pleasurable and not a punishment. A well-trained dog should be able to
tell between people allowed into the house and people who are intruders.
Some dogs are perfect angels while their owners are home but bark and
howl the moment the owner turns the corner. These dogs suffer from a
condition called separation anxiety. An excellent method for retraining
these dogs is to make the dog unsure of how long the owner will be
absent. The owner should leave the property and come back at intervals
varying from a few minutes to several hours so that the dog is unable to
predict how long the owner will be absent and, believing that it may
only be a few minutes, will be less likely to be stressed.
Get your dog used to the idea that you are away for different periods of
time at different times of day. And don't make a fuss of your dog when
you leave him. Do not return to your dog until he/she is quiet for a
period. If you leave your dog for long periods: feed and exercise your
dog before you go out and leave some fresh water. Make sure your dog's
bed or basket is comfortable and leave out his/her favourite toys. If
you keep you dog outside, think carefully about where you put his kennel
and where he/she can run. Try not to put it near your neighbour's fence
or where your dog will be tempted to bark.
