Hi - I’m having issues with my dog barking at trucks and moving vehicles and people who walk by our apartment. Any recommendations to help her stop barking at both of these?

What I’ve learned: You need to train so that you’re more interesting than whatever the thing is. If you give a command that would either focus on you or have them do a positive behavior to earn a reward - treats, praise, toy, etc. it distracts them from whatever that thing is and gives them another job. Coming when called, sit, focus…. I’m no expert, but it is working as I train my two young dogs. Good luck!

Ehh normal dog behavior. I’ve meet many dogs this way. Not sure how to prevent it. But probably a professional trainer could help snap them out of that.

train them like be in control don’t scare them but let them know that’s not okay

Questionable dog parent advice. You have to gently expose your dogs to new situations so they become confident. Not make mean demands or lock them away where they never learn independence or socialization. A trainer can always help but the first thing @OP is to get off your hiney and go play with your dog outside and explore new environments and situations with nouns: people places and things.

My dog does that too, I don’t know how to stop him either

How long have you had the dog?

My younger dog did this a lot and he loved sitting out on the front porch where he would see everything and bark at everyone and everything.

He lost front porch privileges and the barking stopped. He doesn’t do it on walks or any other time. It was just the front porch with a gate where he was probably experiencing too much FOMO

Try a white noise machine

My dog barks at whoever walks up to our front patio but outside of that never barks inside or on walks. I prefer the security of her alerting us to someone coming up to the house

I normally go up to my dog and pat his head and rub his belly to show him affection and distract him from the outside noise. We will run around the house with all his dog toys. It is indeed, so cute the way my dog runs around! Keeps me on my toes when I'm home. I love it on a personal level.

Do you always wash your hands after petting your dogs? I got a new puppy and am constantly washing hands and trying to be as sanitary as possible. I'm simply to grossed out if I don't especially since I found out my puppy has worms.

Has anyone ever done aggression training for their dog? Met with a trainer who basically wants us to either keep our dog crated or on a leash at all times and said no pets or play time for now. Our dog has been acting out ever since we brought home our newborn and also bit our groomer. Trainer has me terrified that the dog will hurt the baby but my heart is breaking that I can’t give any “love” to my dog right now. Any similar experiences or thoughts?
