Some have even resorted to extreme measures like dog shock collars (SO NOT COOL) to try to get their dog to stop barking.

Why Do Dogs Bark?
According to Professional Dog Trainer and Behavioral Specialist, Doggy Dan, once you figure out why your dog is barking, stopping it becomes the easiest dog behavior issue to solve. Doggy Dan simplifies it by saying the reason your dog is barking is because they’re not happy about something. They’re asking for help!
4 Most Common Reasons Why Dogs Bark
Most dogs and puppies will fall into one of these categories. Once you’ve decided which one of these best describes YOUR dog or puppy, then you can look at the action plan to solve it once and for all. Dogs bark because:
- They want something.
- They think there is danger.
- They’ve been left alone (and aren’t comfortable with it).
- They’re overexcited.
