in this video I'm going to talk about
why is it that your dog barks at other
dogs or other people or anything that it
sees outside and how you can manage and
control your dog all that I'm more
coming up hello my name is Saro I'm a
dog trainer also coach dog owners if
this is your first time welcome so you
take your dog out and your dog barks at
everything and anything that it sees
including dogs people anything that
moves cars and things like that so it's
better to understand why is it that your
dog is doing that first so we can have a
better idea to solve this issue so the
main reason why dogs especially adult
dogs do this behavior and bark at
everything is number one is because
they're lacking social skills especially
when they were puppies they haven't had
a good social skill training when they
were between the ages of 10 weeks and
four months this is a very sensitive age
that dogs and puppies they tend to
absorb a lot of information during this
time and it all depends on how the dog
owner is going to use that opportunity
to either teach or allow the puppy to
learn positive experiences or negative
experiences most puppies are not being
socialized when they are young because
many dog owners are being told that they
need to have their shots before getting
out in the real world but the reality is
that you don't have to wait until
they're four months old or something
like that or they have the last shot
before you start socializing you can
socialize your dog as long as you take
the right steps at any time especially
between the ages of 10 weeks and 4
months we call this a window of
opportunity you want to take advantage
and socialize your puppy as much as you
can so most dog owners because they
avoid socializing a puppy in this
staged this causes dogs to have lack of
social skills and after that because
puppies didn't have a good social skill
when they were young they are sensitive
and they stop reacting to everything
that they see including dogs and people
so dog owners they get even more
stressed and scared so they block the
dog from socializing even further
so therefore when they're adult they are
really becoming reactive to everything
that they see dogs cars people anything
so now that your dog is an adult and
sees other dogs or cars or whatever it
causes them to be stressed they are
really anxious and stressed to the
maximum level and that's when they start
barking they're really screaming for
help they're saying I can't tolerate
this I don't know how to solve this
situation I'm really stressed I'm really
confused I'm yelling and barking to tell
other dogs and people to stay away from
me I'm stressed and I'm really anxious
so now you know what your dog is barking
is actually basically telling you that
it feels anxious and stressed and so
when your dog is reactive and is barking
at whatever it sees that's not the time
to train or teach your dog stress level
of your dog is so high and no matter
what kind of information you provide to
your dog it's going to take it as a
negative information most of the time
whatever you do is going to turn into
negative reaction I get lots of comments
from my viewers that they asked me and
they tell me that their dog it's getting
really bad and worse every time they try
to do something when their dog is
barking so don't even try to train or
teach your dog not to bark at that
moment just control it and manage it
redirect the behavior to something else
change directions and move away
from whatever is causing your dog to be
stressed that's not the time to train
and teach your dog so when it's a good
time to train and teach your dog about the
barking?
the best time is when your dog is
calm and relaxed that's when your dog is
able to take in information that's the
time that you can actually teach your
dog so you want to start teaching your
dog the basics to have some form of
communication going on between your and
your dog so your dog can start paying
attention to you and getting cues from
you because when your dog is in that
situation and this barking and something
is bothering it they are not able to
focus on you because the only time that
you start communicating to your dog or
tell your dog to stop doing something is
when they are misbehaving when they are
barking therefore the only time that you
have just tried to communicate to them
and tell them and that you love them and
you want to help them is when they are
barking and because they are barking
they can hear you they can sense you
they can't feel you therefore you don't
get any results I hope that makes sense?
so you have to do it when your dog is
calm and relaxed and teach your dog that
this is the cue-word when you get
stressed I'm gonna give you this cue
word I want you to pay attention to me
so you have to practice this and teach
your dog beforehand and then expect them
to listen to you or get cues from you in
the real scenario so first of all don't
put your dog in that position that is
gonna be stressed and it's gonna bark
second of all start practicing and
training your dog to learn to respond to
you using a cue word if you want to
learn how to teach your dog a cue word
I'm gonna link a video that I
explained it all I'm gonna link that
video right here you can go ahead and
watch that so I highly suggest you to go
back to basics to train them the basic
obedience practice with your dog the
basics once again if you haven't done
for a long time it's a good opportunity
to refresh your dog's memory about
vacation and the basics teach them the
cue word
that will help you to help your dog and
calm your dog when they get in certain
situation and also that will help your
dog to have a communication and start
paying attention to you to get cues from
you start implementing these ideas and
let me know and give me some feedback as
