Generally, there are eight reasons why dogs bark:
* Territorial or defensive barking
* Excitement, or happiness at seeing you
* Play and exercise
* To get your attention or to signal you (i.e. "I have to go potty!")
* Aggravation over not being able to attain something (such as your pork chop).
* Social barking in response to other dogs
* Separation anxiety and trepidation
* Compulsive behavior

The best positive reinforcement way to train a dog to stop barking is to remove the motivation. If he barks at people passing by outside, eliminate their view by closing the curtains. Another technique is when he is barking ignore the dog completely and when he quiets down give him a treat.

Some tips that could help you:-Let him/her go outside to sustain their curiosity.-Pet them.-Find a way to make them stay in one place, such as having them lie down.Answer:There are many tips on the web for how to stop your dog from barking. In my opinion most of them don't work, are impractical or not applicable for the situations where your dog barks. See related link below for one list of these remedies.The only one I've had any luck with is the first one. Originally our dog only barked at squirrels in our back yard. I considered this inbred behavior (she was bred to be a ratter and squirrels are rats with cosmetic enhancements and a PR program. So, I removed the squirrels and she stopped barking. At that time she hadn't figured out barking a passers by in the street was fun. Since then she's learned this barking behavior and it continues to get worse. To remove this stimulus we'd have to keep her indoors and we're not willing to do that. I have a training shock collar which I've used to try to stop this behavior, but she quickly learned that she only got shocked when the collar was on. And I'm not willing to use a real shock collar that's on all the time and shocks her every time she barks. Barking is natural behavior -- it's part of what dogs were bred to do.Ignoring the barking on the theory it will stop by itself is absurd unless you're rewarding the dog for barking, like giving them treats or petting them when they bark. If you're doing something like that then stop rewarding your dog for barking and he might stop barking.Distracting them only works if you're around to distract them every time they start barking.I've trained her to stop barking when I say quiet in a calm, soft tone of voice, but this only lasts until I'm out of sight.In summary, I don't know of anything that will stop a dog from barking except a bark shock collar. Maybe the kind of collar that make an unpleasant noise and squirt citronella, which dogs hate the smell of, every time they bark.

Dogs often bark at the same time every morning due to their internal clock, known as circadian rhythm, which regulates their behavior and signals them to wake up and start their day. This regular barking may also be triggered by external factors such as routine activities or noises in the environment.
Barking is a noisy but completely normal part of dog communication. But if your pooch is very frequently or for long periods of time, this isn’t only annoying for you (and your neighbors) – it could also be a sign of deeper issues your dog is experiencing. It’s important to act early to prevent normal barking, or the reasons for barking, developing into something more serious.
None. Train your dog using commands, time and patience. These collars emit a noise that startles the animal. When a dog barks, they are immediately emitted. The theory is that the dog will learn soon the barking is bad, but most of the time, a dog will not make this connection between barking and the noise.

Barking is a normal behavior for dogs. However, when barking becomes excessive, it can not only be bothersome for you but for your neighbors as well. So how do you teach your dog that some barking is OK, while excessive barking is not? First, you need to find the reason your dog is barking. Dogs that are left alone all day can get bored and sometimes even suffer from separation anxiety. It’s important to keep your dog active and well-exercised every day so that they can get rid of excess energy in a productive way. Take your dog for a daily walk, play fetch, and spend 5-10 minutes every night running through training techniques like commands to sit, shake, and roll over. When physically and mentally exercised daily, most dogs will use the time their owner is away to sleep or just relax. Some dogs bark because they are startled. They may be afraid of a loud thunderstorm outside or a noisy truck passing by. Easily excitable dogs need reassurance from their owners that they are safe and cared for. If your dog barks because he’s scared or startled, try taking him to a part of the house or apartment that is more quiet or turning on a radio to play some music that can block out the noise. Often, dogs bark as a means of getting attention. In these cases, it’s best to ignore your dog and only reward him when he’s quiet again. This is often difficult to do since our first instincts are to admonish or quiet a barking dog. Just remember that any attention you give your dog when he’s barking incessantly will only reinforce his barking behavior. Another reason that dogs tend to bark is to warn you of some perceived threat. The best way to deal with warning barks is to allow your dog to bark two or three times to alert you. After three times, while using a firm voice, tell him “no bark” or “quiet”. If your dog still does not stop barking, you can use a squirt bottle filled with clean water to spray his mouth. When he stops barking, reward him immediately. The next time he barks, repeat the command, spray his mouth, and wait for three seconds of no barking before you reward him. Continue to increase the time of no barking with each occurrence. When working on bark control, remember that consistency is the key. With a little time and patience, you can look forward to having a dog that has his barking under control.
