Lab puppies are very active and need lots of exercise and attention. I would train him to retrieve a ball and play with him a lot and walk him often so he’s tired. You can give him a chew toy when in the house or crate so he’s busy too which should decrease the barking. I have also used a Sonic Egg to decrease the barking. You can buy one at PetCo. It gives off a sound when they bark and that will help also. Remember he’s just a baby and this behavior should improve as he matures. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Scooby.
