My dog barks at me!
I have a 1 year old half boxer half American bulldog. For the most part she is a very good dog. However, sometimes when I am brushing my teeth, making the bed, or watching TV she barks and barks and barks at me. What is she trying to tell me? Why does she do this? How can I get her to stop? A: I would recommend trying to train a preferred alternative behavior. The behavior you are describing is called attention seeking. Your dog is trying to get your attention. The best way to get her to stop the behavior is to teach a preferred behavior, such as sit and stay, or sit and look, to have your dog concentrate on you quietly, rather than barking at you for attention. If you need any further assistance, I would recommend speaking with either Hannah, Mary, or Gary of our Behavior Training staff at 832-3107 or 783-7387.
