Barking in dogs is a way to let other animals know the dog is around and generally communicate with other dogs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are three reasons why dogs bark. The first reason is territorial. Barking is an alarm system. When a dog barks<\/a>, it is letting other animals know not to come into its territory. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second reason dogs bark is to get attention<\/a>. When a dog barks at someone or something, it tries to get the person or thing to interact with it. The third reason dogs bark is to communicate with other dogs<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a given that some small dog breeds tend to bark and howl more than others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the Chihuahua to the Yorkshire Terrier and the Maltese Terrier to the Shih Tzu, small dog breeds are more prone to vocalizing their discontent in a certain tone. This is not a bad thing if you are prepared to deal with it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you probably know, dogs are pack animals by nature, and their bark is a good way to alert you to any approaching strangers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While it\u2019s unlikely that your dog is much of a vocalist, you might still be looking for ways to reduce the amount of noise he makes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
