Dog trainer Jack from Dovecote Dogs has shared some simple yet effective tips to stop your pooch from barking incessantly, and the golden rule all owners should be following
A dog trainer has shared some simple tips on how to stop your pooch from barking incessantly, including the golden rule owners must follow.
Owners should be able to calmly tell their dogs to stop and have the command followed, however, this is easier said than done for some people and their pooches. Now, a dog trainer has shared some short and snappy tips to help you call time on your dog's barking and the golden rule all owners should be following for an obedient canine.
"You're essentially shouting commands over the top of the dog. Our body language is facing the same way as the dog, so in the dog's mind, we are also barking at the same thing they are barking at. They don't know what we're saying. All they can see is our body language is in the same direction as them."
Why, you may ask? Jack explained: "The reason we wait for a gap is because we want to pair the command with actually being quiet. If we start using it while they're barking we end up pairing it with the barking."
