how to train a dog to bark? - 789 - 05-24-2014 07:23 PM

i know most people ask how to train them to shut up haha but i am trying to train my girl to bark on command as it stands she only barks if i am leaving . i would like to train her to bark on command to encourage her to bark at appropriate things such as raccoons, intruders ect


ideas?

Well, ur dog learns to bark by itself so u don't need to train it to do it?.....Do u train a baby to breathe? no so same think they are natural things. If ur dog don;t bark, go to the veteranian

How old is your dog, and what breed?

With some dogs its easy to teach them to bark on command. With others its almost impossible.

Both my dogs bark on command.
Use a command like "watch him" when you teach him to maybe bark at someone accosting you. Don`t use the word"speak" as it does not have the same affect to the trouble maker.

You might get her to do a "speak" and bark on command, but barking at racoons or intruders is a natural instinct.
