Why is your dog barking?
When a person or an animal comes into an area your dog considers their territory, that often triggers excessive barking. As the threat gets closer, the barking often gets louder. Your dog will look alert and even aggressive during this type of barking.
Dogs often bark when they want something, such as going outside, playing, or getting a treat.
