Basic Dog Training Advice – How to Train a Dog to Stop Barking

Teach your dog to stop barking in this free dog training video.

The most common mistake i see so many people make is that when their dog is barking, they come up and they pat the dog and they tell them how good they are and they tell them to be quiet and reassure them that you’re home and everything is okay.

In human terms, that work, in dog’s terms what you’re doing is rewarding your dog for barking so the best thing to do is not reward your dog for barking.

Another good example is that when you come home and the dog is barking at the door and you open the door and come in, or even the other way around, if the dog is at the door barking and you let him out, you’re still training them to bark and so as an example, when they are barking, it’s always no or quiet, use a very stern no voice, be consistent, pick a word and stick with it and then reward the quiet.

Always reward the right behavior and you always end up with a wonderful pet.
