Methods to train a dog not to bark

(1) When the dog starts barking, call its name to attract attention. Don't run over and yell at it when it's barking. It will form the impression that as soon as it barks, the owner will come to you, thus barking more vigorously.

(2) Lift its chin to control it, or spray it with a water gun.
(3) Puppies can be solved with pet boxes. They don't bark in dim light, so you can calm them down by simply placing a blanket over the kennel.

How to train a dog to bark

(1) Use food to tease it, and it will bark anxiously if it wants to eat. At this time, give the command "bark", and then give the food, and then gradually reduce the amount of food. Lure it to bark and stop on command.

(2) Usually use the opportunity of its unconscious barking to issue the "bark" command in time, so that the purebred Afghan Hound picture can associate the barking with the command, and at the same time give some reward food or verbal praise. When playing games with the Afghan hound, use toys to tease it. If it barks, reward it with the toy; if it is only excited but does not bark, tie it to a fixed object. It will be anxious to get the toy. If you have to bark, reward it at this time.

(3) Use the dog's defensiveness to make it bark. The owner held the Afghan hound on a leash and asked his assistant to approach it slowly from a distance while making threatening movements to lure it. The boss orders the assistant to "bark" with his finger. If your Afghan Hound barks, praise and reward him. After several training sessions, the dog can form a barking conditioned reflex according to the instructions.

This type of training method should not be used excessively to prevent it from developing the habit of barking at others.
