* Some breeds, like many herding breeds, may be more vocal than others.

* When your dog starts to bark, say your dogs name, to get their attention so they know you are referring to them, and use your signal phrase.

* If your dog stops barking, praise them and give a food reward.

* Yet all these behaviors can be addressed with proper teaching.
