How can I make sure my dog doesn't bark all the time?

One way to help your dog not bark so much is by teaching them proper behavior. You can start with positive reinforcement and reward good behavior, such as sitting or laying down when they bark. You can also try redirecting their attention away from whatever it is that's causing them to bark, like a doorbell or another person coming up to your house. If you notice that your dog is barking more than usual, take some time to figure out what might be triggering their barking and work on addressing it.
