Im an Ivan Balabanov Guy, but I must say, I really enjoy your content. Really happy that you went onto his podcast, otherwise I may have never found your channel on my own.

Great info as always 🐾♥️✨ Special Thanks for mentioning the Huntaway breed 🙌🏻🤗 My boy (just turning a year) is half Huntaway and there isn’t a lot about them out there😉 He is very communicative 😜(I had found enough info about them to be aware of it before I got him😉) I adore him he has Greatness❣️✨🐾♥️✨🙌🏻 We work on his demand barking (pay attention to only me syndrome.....I have multiple dogs in my home 2 seniors and a 3 year old) Overall he is just a fabulous dog and I’m not concerned about it moving forward because he loves to work and has more try than any dog I’ve ever had. I’m so excited about our future together 🐾♥️✨ Thanks again🥰

I'm so glad you talk about WHY dogs bark! And, Susan, my girl is a task-trained ADA compliant PTSD service dog, and a huge part of her just is to bark at people. She can do it on cue ("watch out" *point at target), but she's also encouraged to bark at strangers at the door, she's a guard dog. When some ppl say something like that border agent said to you I always smirk and say "if she wasn't you'd be bit, she's trained to protect me". She has an off switch, though, and your anti bark protocol helps my clients with their demands barking!

[@SabrasJourney]

I’d be very interested in that programme in English! ❤

[@MusingsFromTheDen]

I've got a frustration barker. Also when he's over tired. He's great at altering me to something he finds suspicious too, but I'm OK with that. 😊

[@PhilipBooth-qj9dk]

I never told my dog not to do anything she already knew what not to do she was perfect from day one. I was very lucky to have her.

[@Starlife921]

Hi! i first got to say that i loove your videos and that i am so very grateful that you exist. thanks you so much for all your help! secondly i wonder 💭 how would you handle it if your dog was crate train, is in its crate, someone comes home (entrance the home) and your dog would bark in a way that seems to be like the dog is alarming but also scared? my dog does this and i dont really know how to handle it 😢 i hope you can give me some advice 🤞 btw, the crate is in a room where she doesn’t see who comes in thru the door. she does this even tho the person who comes thru the door is someone she knows. after she has her alarming bark and she starts to recognise who has come home she then obviously wants to get out to greed her friend 😂 i actually tell her ssshhh and she narrows down the bark witch i’m glad that she is able to do BUT. it brakes my heart to see that’s she feels (among other things) afraid and i would love to be able to help her just the right way. I really hope that u can find the time to answer my comment and once again, thanks you so much for your videos and i’m so grateful that you do what you do ❤

My dog trainer corrected my dog with a leash when she barked at another dog who came out of nowhere, behind her back, during the 'hot zone' training. I'm curious about what you think of it - I was not impressed.

[@peggieincolfaxca3818]

[@arlenemayer657]

I have a 9 yr. old Huskimo (Husky/American Eskimo). I can tell the difference in her bark at someone walking past the house as opposed to walking up to the house. She also has an excited bark if a dog is walking past the house! I learned not to yell, but just say "quiet". Its not 100%, but it helps (if a dog is walking by, all bets are off!!!)

[@DogsThat]

@arlenemayer657 Husky mixes are definitely known for their vocalizations! Susan has a series of videos dedicated to barking that you may find helpful! kzbin.info/www/bejne/noWWmaWkZbaNr6c&pp=gAQBiAQB (Julie - DogsThat Team)

[@MrKeveo]

I have 2 Akitas and an Inuit. the inuit, started barking outside shops a few months ago. He never did this for years. Wondering now why he started to do this.

[@iknowyouwanttofly]

I live in a rented apartment and my dog guard/ alarm anytime someone walks in the staircase past the apartment. He can do this even in the middle of the night and wake up alot of people. Is it possible to teach the dog to mark it in a way that is quiet so he can still feel like he gets to comunicate it?

[@muvvin]

Would love the Frida protocol in English!! And I have an anxious dog who is scared of the outside world. How do I get her exposed to it if she is afraid to even walk outside?

[@DogsThat]

@muvvin We can relate to your anxious dog who is afraid of the outside world.

New 3 yr old rescue Beagle girl in our pack, she's a stray from TX with no manners. She barks in her kennel when im preparing food. Just started Recaller games with her- her digestive system can finally handle treats- it ls been a medical journey with her. So glad to have resources to help guide her. Thank you. This video was perfectly timed - she was extra barky at breakfast🐾❤

[@CatFromFL]

I love your end incessant barking techniques. I have a great one that works with mouthing, nipping biting, etc by puppies. As they engage your hand or fingers gently push your hand in, not to hurt them but to be slightly uncomfortable . They will drop your hand, fingers etc. it takes only a few times in a few days or less and they stop. I replace my hand with an appropriate chew toy. I have taught at least 8 or more pups we owned , or i taught neighbors or relatives this technique and it always works. Easy and quick.

[@pamhouweling7141]

It works with cats too. 😅 Lol. I have been correcting biting rescue pets for over 40 years.

[@floatysarah]

I've used that technique successfully too, along with me making a yelp like puppies do when their sibling has got too rough

[@riverrainbow]

My 1 yo lab barks when I'm helping my children get ready to go outside, sometimes when I'm getting myself ready to go out. Sometimes all the getting ready means the dogs will be coming too. Often, the kids are just going outside to play by themselves. At the moment he's in a crate when I'm too busy to keep an eye on him, so I don't know if it would be different if I let him out before getting ready, but my concern right now is that he'd be into everything while I'm wrestling getting kids into boots, plus if he's not coming too then he'd have to go back in his crate if I was going outside without him 😊 he figures out the food puzzle toy I have in seconds and then starts to chew it. I'm half way through the video and have some ideas already about how to help him.

[@RoamTownGirl]

OK, I’m a longtime American Eskimo owner, so I’ve got dogs that both like to talk a.k.a. vocalize and their bread to be watched dogs. So I’m looking for information, not so much on how to get them to stop barking completely, but I’d like to be able to tell them to be quiet after they do their alert bark for me. Which unfortunately can be anything from a person walking by, to a leaf falling off a tree - lol. PS I’m also a solo female RVer (who travels all over the US with my two fur babies.)

[@lauriebenzie1386]

A great video compilation! I just can't see how to apply the protocol (remote feeder/someone at the door) to my situation. My 3 yr old Border Terrier barks at wildlife in the yard and at, (some), people/dogs walking down our road. She is mostly on the deck or at the patio door when she barks. I can block off the patio door, but she can still hear the deer, turkeys, even a woodpecker knocking on a tree, etc. I exposed her to the yard guests since she was a puppy, having her sit and watch on a long line. I also reward when she doesn't bark. But she still barks, especially if the wildlife is startled and runs. Any advice?

[@heather1778]

Similar situation here.

[@lauriebenzie1386]

@DogsThat I have watched the barking series several times. I am unable to apply the protocols with any results. My frustration with her is increasing to the point that I have considered an ecollar. My neighbour is complaining and threatening. Niw she is not permitted outside unless she is on leash. She is a great dog otherwise. We are involved in several dog sports and train daily.

[@DogsThat]

Hi@@lauriebenzie1386 for barking at wildlife and people and dogs walking down the road, here's a video and the protocol Susan shares does not need a remote feeder - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGO5XmaAqK1-rKcsi=jqytZycf2bVT-KFC - hang in there, you've got this!

[@lauriebenzie1386]

@DogsThat Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU! I will be starting on this tomorrow. I never thought of her barking as a barrier issue, I was thinking it was her prey drive (just being a terrier 😉). Fingers crossed 🤞 that this is the solution! 😁

[@UNbalancedDogTrainer]

My parents' 15 year old dog is really good at demand barking 😂 My parents think they're "punishing" her by giving her high-value food 🤣 because she stops barking to chew. So the stopped barking reinforces the human behavior

[@AnneMB955]

My 16 month old Golden barks when he hears anything outside. It seems like he wants to alert me to intruders or possible friends. Will listen out to how I can alleviate this mainly in the night time. Without scolding, of course.

[@merlinthewizard2399]

My border collie does this, we were told by the trainer to go to the door look through the peep hole or look at the window say it’s ok thank you for letting me know. At night I turn on the lamp and say the same, he stops straight away,sometimes I’m sure he walks away smiling😂 it chasing cars, bikes anything with wheels I have the problem with🤦‍♀️pray drive is real with him

[@OldDogNewTricksAustralia]

While the information and strategies are fairly useful for micromanaged dogs that live predominantly within the home or apartment, most of the issues in my own area are related to dogs that live predominantly outdoors on the typical Australian quarter acre block. I have had multiple families move in alongside me that have had problem barkers. Dogs that bark all day and all night, often whether their owners are at home or not. Generally non stop or hysterical barkers that react to everything. In some cases, the owners would go away for days on end leaving daily care to a friend visiting once a day. Most of these dogs never had a daily walk. Do you have any thoughts on how I could influence these neighbours? (My own dogs are not problem barkers).

[@DogsThat]

@OldDogNewTricksAustralia Thank you for sharing your perspective! Outdoor dogs, especially on larger properties, can face challenges like boredom, frustration, or lack of exercise, which often leads to excessive barking. You might gently suggest enrichment toys, regular walks, or training games to keep their dogs engaged and happier. Framing it as improving their dog's well-being can make advice more approachable. It’s great to hear your dogs aren’t problem barkers-you’re clearly meeting their needs well! Your example might inspire your neighbors. 😊 (Julie - DogsThat Team)

[@MagdalenaWąsala]

Ha, funny. I live in Australia and have a young GSP. I'm often told this sort of dog needs so much space to run, best a farm situation. And when I tell them I live in an apartment in the city, and I never had any behavioural issues, they can't believe me. But yes I do everything DogsThat suggests on a daily basis. You might have an acre of space for your dog to run but if you don't do anything with it, all you get are behavioural issues.

[@robinrutherfordcost4748]

Question: occasionally, well once a year, we have to board our 3 dogs. What can kennels do to stop the barking? When we leave the house, the radio is on to decrease the outside noises. The only time they bark is when our car pulls up - then they sing the songs of their people. We wait a minimum of 3 seconds of quiet BEFORE opening the door. Any suggestions would be great because the kennel is not doing any games with the dogs. Thank you so much!

[@DogsThat]

Hi @robinrutherfordcost4748 have you had a chance to talk to the kennels about the situation and the possibilities they have based on their specific situation and set up? (Sharon - DogsThat Team)

[@robinrutherfordcost4748]

@@DogsThat it's indoor/outdoor runs with barricading between runs - so no fence fighting. The dogs get out of the run once a day. I guess I could pay for more one on one time. They usually play a radio. Apparently the dogs barked/howled non-stop for 3 days straight - didn't get hoarse and they don't even think they slept. They live on the property. Not just bad for our dogs but the other dogs as well - ugh!?! Never an issue last year or prior years either. Almost don't want to go back since that's where the barking that long happened. I do the cardboard bombs at home, occasional marrow bones, stuffed Kongs - guess I could bring a stash of stuff for the kennel. They are only 1 of 2 places that I actually feel comfortable leaving them - have visited many places and not happy or comfortable going anywhere else - size wise, kennel smell, staff, etc.

[@Elfin4]

Kennels are only interested in your money, once the dog is left it will get fed watered and occasionally walked, beyond that they won't do anything. What they may do is feed your dog food that your dog is not used to so this may upset its stomach and the dog may be remembering this when you return so is getting anxious ad barking. The Kennel is clearly the trigger. We returned our GS pup to the our breeder once for a week of evaluation and left his kibble etc. but then got the full bag back when we picked him up. The breeder said she'd been feeding him the same as the other dogs raw meat and there was no phasing in of the different food like she told us we must do when we picked the pup up originally at 8weeks old. She also used a slip lead on the dog without our approval. So don't be surprised that Kennels don't do what you think they are doing or should be doing.

[@DogsThat]

You might try to get a house sitter, it sounds like your dogs didn’t settle at that kennel. Getting a house sitter means your dog will be able to stay in their own home when you have to go away.

My 6 yr old Shiba Inu (rescued about a year ago) likes the basic puzzles (puppy bombs, sniffy matts) but is quick to give up when i introduce the next level of challenge - the muffin tin game is the most challenging thing I can engage her in - any thoughts on how to introduce harder puzzles?

I have 3 dogs of various ages who bark every time a family member comes down the stairs and at any visitors. We'll work on daily training in the areas mentioned but would implementing hot zones be best for this issue? It definitely seems excited announcing vs. fear/alert.

It’s better to rehome them than to debark them. Beaucerons are high energy working breeds that need something to do.
