How to stop my dog barking at loud neighbors without a collar?

Question

I live in a duplex and the neighbors are really loud. My dog barks at them all the time and I don’t know how to stop it. I’m not a fan of bark collars and muzzles so I need to figure out a way so I don’t have to use them. Thanks in advance!

This can be very frustrating. I would recommend starting with increase exercise. Most dogs have mild anxiety or built up energy which will cause a lot of barking. Typically I recommend walking or running multiple times a day to help decrease energy. Second, you could try an adaptil collar or plug in. This is a collar that has pheromones present to help calm and relax out canine patients. Also composure is available online and is a supplement that can help with anxiety. If this does not work I would recommend consulting your vet to discussed possible medications to decrease the barking. I will say training will be a very important part in solving the problem. Hope that helps
