Barking Dog Effect Sound
***
There is nothing like a barking dog effects
for a sound to scare off would-be intruders. But the sound of a barking
dog can also be very annoying, especially if you are very tired and are
trying to sleep. Barking is natural for dogs and there is often a reason
behind excessive barking. Many owners do not bother with trying to find
out what the reasons are before they punish the dog and try to intimidate
it into quietness. Always telling the dog to stop barking when it starts
is actually rewarding it for making noise. The dog quickly learns that if
it wants to get your attention, the quickest way is to start barking.
If your reaction to the sound of a barking dog is to give it a treat or
some food, then the dog will always bark when it wants food. Although it
requires a lot of patience the best way to deal with a barking dog effect
is with no sound at all- just ignore it. When the dog stops barking,
praise the dog for being quiet. This may be hard to do, but once the dog
realizes that its barking is not having any effect on your at all, and
that in order to get your attention it needs to keep quiet.
If your dog is used to having company, it may start barking when it is
alone. This is called separation anxiety and there are ways you can reduce
the barking dog effect to sound quiet to your neighbors. If the dog is
used to hearing you talk during the day, a recording of your voice may
ease the problem. Having lots of toys for the dog to play with also
occupies the dog’s attention and keeps it from barking for long periods of
time.
