How do I get my dog to stop barking?
assistant
Start by teaching your dog a few commands like “quiet” or “no bark.” Reward them with treats and praise when they obey. 2 Make sure you give your dog enough exercise and mental stimulation so that they don't have too much energy to expend on barking. 3 Try using a citronella collar or spray to help deter the barking, as well as playing soothing music or white noise. 4 If all else fails, consult with your veterinarian about anti-anxiety medication for your dog.
