Introduction – Barking in the Blind/Guarding Troubleshooting – Stops Barking

We prefer to have a tactile command to continue barking, which is pop on the leash. We usually start this training with a ball. The person with the ball will have a second leash and dog will be activated by a leash pop and command to Bark. If the dog stops barking another pop is given, the dog barks, Positive Marker is used and the dog gets the ball. Dogs will always look for the way to earn reinforcement and lower discomfort.
