I would invest in a bark collar. These collars emit a smell, noise, or shock that startles the animal. These do not hurt the animal in any way, but they are annoying. When a dog barks, they are immediately emitted so the dog will learn soon the barking is bad.
its not barking its grunting meaning its scared or angry
Old riddle....put him in the front seat.
Your Labrador male dog should start barking at strangers when it is at least 12 months old.
This depends on the individual dog. Barking can start as young as 5 weeks, but some Shepherds are simply not vocal. Not barking is not a bad sign.

You train them not to bark. I don't recommend those anti-barking machines though. They bother me more than the dogs. I would however recommend getting an empty soda can and putting some pennies or whatnot in it. You seal the top of the can with some tape, and every time the dog barks you shake it until they stop. You want your dog to connect his barking with the "bad" noise.
If it is an old dog, then it may become deaf, and not like the world to be quiet.
My border collie is becoming very agreesive. he is 8mo,old he is barking and chasing with nipping please help. thank you
Christopher is 15 years old when he takes his A-level maths exam in "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time."
Place ten pennies in an old coffee can and when the dog barks, rattle it. When he stops to investigate the unknown noise, praise him. Repeat often. Prevention, in most cases, the more confident and content the dog, the less likely he is to bark. Keep your dog mentally and physically stimulated.. ---- A dog parent can also try safe ultrasonic bark control. When your dog barks the ultrasonic bark control unit emits a high frequency sound that only your dog can hear. Each dog bark triggers the bark control unit to emit the sound. The dog will stop barking when he/she hears it. Soon the dog will realize that their barking causes the uncomfortable noise and will stop barking. The ultrasonic bark control is not recommended in a house with cats since they are also able to hear the high frequency sound. There are two types of Safe Ultrasonic Bark Controls: Indoor and Outdoor. The Indoor Bark Control unit sits on any flat surface in your house. The Outdoor Bark Control looks like a Birdhouse and can be placed on any outside tree. The device not only looks great for your outdoor decor but an added benefit is controls not only your dog from barking but also your neighbor's barking dog. The Indoor Bark Control unit can be controlled manually or automatically. Manually means you will press the button when you hear your dog bark. Automatic means the device will emit the sound when it picks up the dog bark. The product is manufactured by a reputable company called Petsafe. ---- I found the Petsafe Outdoor Bark Control Birdhouse or Petsafe Indoor Bark Control unit at the following online pet store. Bark controls are great if you are not always home to correct their behavior: http://www.BargainBuyPetSupply.com/outdoor_bark_control.htm
