barking at children

| All need to get to know one another. Have each boy walk her. Afterwards have the boys sit and pet her, you need to be there too. Continue this training.......explain to the boys their help is need in training. After awhile a walk or two, the muzzle can be removed and afterwards the boys can give treats. You must always be ready to give the NO command, whatever you use. It's NO and a stare down, putting your body between you and the boys or whatever is causing her to go off. Do not be angry or upset, you are a kind, loving dictator who does not allow misbehavior. The first few stare downs will take time, afterwards, your eyes speak volumes. |
| What sort of barking is it, just bark, bark, bark, or is it savage/angry barking? And what are the boys doing at the time? Are they sitting still, or walking past or running around? Are they noisy or quiet? My girl barks when kids or dogs are running, she wants to have fun and chase. She also barks when she's on one side of the baby gate and visitors are on the other because she wants to get to them and do some lovin' and can't so is frustrated. This barking is in no way aggessive although it scares some other dogs and would probably scare some people if they're not familiar with dogs. |
