THIS IS AWESOME! My favorite dog trainer and dog whisperer of all time has just released a free video online explaining how to eliminate 94% of all unwanted behavior in ANY dog. Her name is Krista Cantrell and I absolutely LOVE the way she teaches. Click on the video to watch. You'll be glad you did...

If you own many dogs, it can be a headache when they start barking all at the same time. Anything could set them off - a truck’s loud engine, your neighbour’s cat, etc. But the outcome is the same, annoying group barking. If you like your house quiet, that’s a problem. Below are some steps to help you stop dogs from barking

1. Spend time to observe your dogs. That way you get to see exactly what triggers their barking. You can decide on your next course of action based on the info you gather. Such as whether to move your dogs to another area of the house, or get an ultrasonic remote dog trainer, which emits a high-pitched sound to disrupt the dogs when they bark.

2. Decide on a bark collar to use on your dogs. One limitation of the outdoor remote trainer device is that when you walk your dogs, you can’t take the device with you. Once installed, it’s not designed to be removed easily. The alternative is to use a no bark collar on each of your dogs.

3. Get the right size and type Since you don’t want multiple trips to the vet store, it pays to note down the sizes of your dogs. Available sizes for bark collars fir a certain range - small, medium, and large. The three types of deterrent systems to choose from are spray, static, and ultrasonic. Depending on the type a collar can let out a sound, a vibration, a low shock, or a scent.

4. Back to quality time with your dogs Do keep watch over your dogs when they’re wearing their new bark collars, to see how well they resond to them. In time, they might not notice it’s around their neck. Keep watch over changes in their behaviour, in case you have to adjust the intensity settings on the collar.

You may want to talk to veterinarians and dog supply staff to check if you understand correctly how to use the collars you bought. It pays to read the instructions carefully, in case you might not be doing something right. When you stick to these simple steps, you can better stop dogs from barking.
