I am sure you must be tired of your neighbours complaining about your pet dog's constant barking when you are not at home. Dogs are like humans, they will get bored at some point of time when no one is there to look after them. It is only natural that dogs use their voices in the form of barks to express their excitement, to ward off danger and to alert people in regard to their needs.

But when this barking becomes a nuisance to those around you, it is quite difficult to maintain a dog. This incessant dog barking is quite annoying and downright disturbing not only for you but also or your neighbours who experience it when you are not around. It is the same feeling, whether it is your dog or your next door neighbour's.

If you have a pet dog, here are some humane ways in which you can stop your dog from barking when you are not at home.

• One of the ways in which you can stop your dog from barking when you are not at home is to give him something to chew on. A rubber toy or a chewie is some of the best dog toys to help them stay quite. They get lonely at home when no one is around, therefore they need some sort of activity to help them pass time alone.
• If you have complaining neighbours then it is time for you to have a conversation with your pet dog. Do not think that your pet dog does not understand what you are trying to tell it. Tell your dog to stop barking by using a look, a sound, or a physical correction.
• When your pet dog is alone at home, it can get quite lonely. One of the best ways to stop him from barking is by installing a radio in his doggy room. In this way, he will acknowledge the presence of someone with him and thus will not feel lonely. But, make sure to keep the radio far from his reach.
• To stop your pet dog from barking when you are not at home is to understand the reason to his behaviour. If he is barking even when you are around, it could mean that he is having pain or there is something which does not feel right. Try to figure out the problem.
• To help solve your pet dog from barking when you are not at home is to employ someone to look after him when you are away. In this way, he will not feel lonely and depressed. You can also enroll him in a doggy care centre.

These are some of the ways in which you can stop your dog from barking when you are not at home.
