Here’s Why Dogs Bark at Some People and Not Others

Dogs can sense fear which is accompanied by stress, excitement and anxiety present in the hormones released by the body. Dogs realize these changes and therefore begin to bark.

How to avoid these behaviors?

To avoid many of these problems, it is important that the dog is properly socialized while still a puppy. He should experience as many smells, sounds and people as possible so that he doesn’t have any big surprises when he grows up. Exposure to different experiences helps the puppy become more social and mentally stable.

If the dog is already developing problems with people, point out to him that he should not be defensive or protective of everything around him. Train the pet and use commands to teach it to sit or calm down when someone new is around. Repeat the process until it automates learning. And don’t forget to always have a cake on hand to offer as a reward for good behavior.
