Do you need help with your barking dog? If a dog barks excessively, it can become a major problem.
Usually it isn’t a problem to the barking dog! It is a natural behaviour to them. To us humans, though, it isn’t necessarily something we want!
In this week’s special podcast we talk about the issue of barking dogs using Jon’s own little barking Bassett Hound puppy as an example.
Because dogs bark for many reasons, our little podcast case study shows you the essential knowledge you need, to identify all sorts of factors BEFORE you begin to put solutions in. There is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ when it comes to a barking dog.
On the podcast we discuss these questions in detail and how you might go about considering the cause, so you can identify a proper, and long-lasting solution. Listen in and enjoy!

Celebrity dog news!
Scouring the internet for weird and wonderful, I decided not to report on the dog that ate a man’s ear after his girlfriend had bitten it off.. (UGH!)
NO instead, I bring you…
Johnny Depp has had to be rescued from Angelina Jolie’s dog!
The 47-year-old actor is not a fan of dogs but agreed to watch their Mastiff, Jacques, whilst the couple went out for the evening.
Johnny stated “Foolishly I was persuaded to look after their dog Jacques for a night. He’s a huge bulldog. At first I had a terrible feeling, because Jacques smelt horrible. But then I told myself, ‘Come on, you will survive one night’. Everything was cool – until I sat down on the bed to take my shoes off. Jacques pounced on me from behind and kept jumping around on me. He’s not small. Around 175lbs of dog was hurled at me, which felt like about 300lbs. I shouted for help and luckily someone came to take that beast off me.”
Johnny and wife Vanessa are still friends with Brad and Angelina though!
He told German magazine TV Movie: “We often went for dinner with them. It was great. I’ve known Brad since the end of the Eighties. It was great to see him as a man and amazing father.”
