Stop Puppy Barking Early

Identify 

The first step is to identify the cause of your puppy's barking. Are they bored, excited, anxious, or fearful? Once you know the cause, you can start to address it.

Unwanted 

If your puppy is barking for attention, try to ignore them. As soon as they stop barking, reward them with praise or a treat.

Teach 

Once your puppy is able to ignore your silence, teach them an alternative behavior, such as sitting or staying. Reward them for performing the desired behavior.

Be Consistent

 It is important to be consistent with your training. If you give your puppy attention when they bark, they will learn that barking is a way to get what they want.
