This can be the most maddening thing for those that have canines: A dog that insists on barking constantly. All you want is some quiet time, but your dog could be less concerned about what you want!
Well - it's not like the dog is barking on purpose just to upset you. You've got to start becoming more aware of the "dog's barking trends".
Try to be more attentive. What's the cause of it? Is it something that's really obvious which is setting him off or is it something more subtle? A lot of times a dog will bark when he sees someone they are not familiar with.
Dogs, being a natural territorial animal, will bark at that person, as to say "get off my property".
Try to be prepared for these moments when the dog feels intruded upon. For example, if the neighbor and his loud truck come home from work at the same time every day.
Most mailmen deliver mail around the same time each day. Leash your dog when it gets to be that time of day. As the mail truck approaches, give a slight pull on the leash to let your dog know that you will not tolerate his barking behavior today. That will reinforce your message physically.
Another method is to lightly punish your dog. A squirt to the face with a water bottle after each bark will demonstrate that it is not okay to bark in this situation.
Don't forget to also reward your dog when he behaves. A nice treat and a lot of belly rubs when he does not bark show that he is doing the right thing. - 20511
