how do you get a puppy to quit barking at other dogs?
Posted on Dec 30, 2008 under puppy barking |I have a miniature schnauzer puppy and every time he see another dog he starts barking at the other dog. How do I get him to stop…Does anyone have any suggestions to what to do??
You can bring a toy with you each time if he starts to bark direct his attention to the toy.Soon he probably will feel more confident be next to dogs.

Yes, he needs to meet and sniff and play with a lot of nice, friendly dogs. He may only be calling out Hello! Let’s play!
If you can get him into puppy classes, it would really help a LOT. It would be good for him as well as fun, too. Please go if you can, you won’t regret it.

I would socialize him quickly with other dogs. Because when he get older he will become aggressive.It will be even harder for him to get along with other dogs. Dog parks work great make sure your puppy is old enough too. You don’t want it to get sick. I would also take puppy class. You can also direct his attention to something else a treat when he stops. Good Luck!
