Why does your Billy Dog bark?

Barking may be desirable if you value a good watchdog but if you are interested in stopping or preventing your Billy Dog from barking the following strategies will help. 

  • Use regular walks to pacify your Billy Dog
  • Use a spray bottle to zap the dog for barking
  • Distract your Billy Dog with a chew toy filled with food
  • Fill a soda can with small pebbles and shake it as a deterrent to barking
  • Keep your Billy Dog inside with you more often as dogs often bark when board
  • Use background or "white noise" to block out sounds that cause the dog to bark such as other dogs barking in the distance
  • Use a collar that sprays citronella to discourage barking
  • Some Billy Dog dogs may bark as a territorial defense
  • If what you are trying does not work change strategies

Your veterinarian will be able to help if these strategies have not worked. A Veterinarian can combine behavior modification with sedation or surgery to control an Billy Dog that is barking and does not respond well to these techniques.
