My doggy always barks when my dad goes away because he misses him. How can I stop him from barking without hurting him at all or putting a muzzle on him?
Thank you!

you need to train the dog to stop barking when no one is home
it takes a bout a week to do this
either hire a dog trainer or learn to do it

to stop him barking you can just spray him with a little bit of water when he does bark as this will not hurt him and should make him stop

Well my dad bought our dog one of those bark collars that is supposed to shock the dog a little when it barks (it has high and low settings, so it doesn’t hurt much). But I hate to use it. So what we did is put it on low, let it happen twice, and then now we just have to hold up the collar show it to her, or put it on her without turning the shock part on, and she stops barking. It doesn’t hurt them at all, it’s kind of like a static electricity shock.
Hi,
The first step towards controlling excessive barking is to understand the specific reasons behind it. Even after you know the why, don’t expect to wave a magic wand and stop your dog from barking. Training your dog to bark less is a time-consuming process. Also keep in mind that some breeds are more apt to bark than others and these could prove more difficult to train. Here’s more info:
