What can we do about problem barking? Well, first realize that barking isn’t bad. Excess barking is bad. Barking to warn you that someone’s trying to break into your home is great! Barking about a gas leak, the baby crying, or smoke or a fire is also a plus. Barking because a butterfly landed in a bush a block away is nonsense. If the dog is still barking ten minutes after the mailman left, or if he won’t stop barking when you tell him to, you’ve got a problem.
Chronic barking can get a dog into a spiral of stressful behavior that he can’t get out of without your help. Excessive barking is bad for your dog as it can cause systemic damage like ulcers and other medical problems.
