Command your dog to stop barking.Ring your doorbell. When your dog starts barking in response to the ring, put a tasty treat in front of his nose. As soon as your dog stops barking to sniff the treat, say “thank you” or “hush.” Immediately follow your verbal command with a treat.
- Do not yell or use a loud voice when you give your verbal command. Your loud voice may add to your dog feeling alarmed and may encourage him to bark even more.[32]
- Do not use “shut up” or “no” as verbal commands to get your dog to be quiet, since they can have a negative connotation.
