Excessive Barking

Barking is an instinctive behavior for dogs. It is impossible to keep your dog from barking entirely,
but you can teach him be quiet when you give him a command.

Note: This will only be effective when you are at home with your dog.

1. Choose your pet’s Recognition Level.
2. Put your dog in a situation that will tempt him to bark.
3. When your dog begins to bark, press the Stimulation Only Button and give him the command

“Quiet.”

4. Immediately release the button once your dog stops barking and praise him.
5. If your dog ignores the stimulation and continues to bark, increase the Intensity Level by 1 and

repeat the process.

6. Practice this exercise in different areas using different situations that would cause your dog to

bark.
