How do I stop my dog barking – Miniature Pinscher?
By adminI have a 2 yr old miniature pinscher that we adopted from a shelter. He showed signs of neglect when we got him. Our trouble now is that he barks way too much. We have a pasture behind our home with 2 horses in it and he constantly barks when they are anywhere near our fence. He will also bark at any one who enters the pasture and the dogs that run n the pasture. He seems unwilling to stop barking when we give him the command. Also when he is barking he refuses to come when he is called, any suggestions?

you need to train him not to bark. When he does tell him to sit and if he stops treat him.

I also have a miniture pinscher who looks like she was going to be quite the barker. What we did was got a soda can and put about pennies in it and duct tapped the top. Anytime she barked we would shake the can and she would stop instantly. I know they say you can clap to stop behavior but it honestly didn’t even phase her. Now if she starts and even sees the can she will stop. I am not sure if it will work for your dog as mine is a puppy but its worth a try. Good Luck!

My min pin barks like a little bugger when it’s time to go out…because he loves it so much. What has worked for me is making him sit and calm down before he gets the reward of going outside. Maybe you could try making him sit for a treat when he’s barking like a little idiot.
