How To Teach A Dog To Speak: From Parlor Trick To Working Dog Skill
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 чер 2024
- One of the most frequent questions we see is how to get dogs to stop barking, but this week, a Shaped by Dog listener asked the opposite. They want to help their dog start barking. I teach this as a parlor trick, and have the training steps for you. I’m also sharing expert insights from my good friend, Matt Folsom of Modern Malinois fame because for many working dogs, barking is a vital skill, and it’s a very nuanced and detailed behavior.

I’m a fan of modern malinois , he is an amazing trainer as you are. Both with different methods. Love his puppy videos!
I learned two things when I trained my first dog to bark on cue. First, don't train it too early in your dog's learning journey. You do not want it to be their default behaviour to fall back on when they get frustrated. Second, NEVER tell your friends that your dog knows this trick. 😂🤣😂
Susan, I love the way you teach us about dogs’ minds. My dog is 6 and a half now. I started with IYC and Crate Games the day he came home with me at 11 weeks and I’ve continued, not as much as I might, and I will (and yes, he knows how to bark and to be quiet on cue!). I now have an 95% bombproof dog in public. At home, it’s another story I won’t go into - he’s an anxious guy who startles at every noise, and we’ve made vast improvements, and I can see I need to go back to IYC, CG, hot zone & the relaxation protocol. Since I’m an anxious person with ADHD, I need to adjust my own training frequency, duration and energy. I can’t express how grateful I am to you for your generosity in sharing your knowledge and experience. Now, this is a serious question: is there any positive reinforcement those of us who are neurodivergent could use to gradually condition you to slow it down a little? I appreciate very much that you keep your videos/podcasts short, especially because I need to listen to/watch each 2-3 times to absorb the content and take notes. Yes, I’ve tried slowing down the speed, and this is a plea to make your content accessible to everyone. If the reinforcement is high protein, low fat, delicious vegan (gluten free?) chocolate chip cookies, I promise I will figure out a recipe and send them regularly. Thank you from me and from Henry.
New start! Puppy comes home tomorrow.

I need this so desperately!!!!
I’m a big fan of Modern Malinowski and I had already been looking for videos of how Matt teaches his dogs to bark. Now I got it altogether here; perfect 😍
About "capturing barking". I used to own horses and I had one mare that continually jumped the fence. The way we cured her--was to teach her to jump on cue. Once she was trained to jump on cue, the random jumping stopped. My trainer told me she considered it a sure cure for random fence jumping. I wonder if "capturing barking" isn't using the same idea.
I don't want my dogs to be quiet. I want it to be in control
Thank you, Susan!! 🐾🇺🇸🐕🦺🦮
Twenty years ago I trained my GSD in Schutzhund and he learned a perfect sustained and rhythmic hold and bark in the blinds just by watching other experienced dogs do it. Now I have a 20 month old Toy Poodle (just started in agility) and she goes bottle rockets if she sees a dog, horse, cow, from the car or on TV. I got her at 4 months, she's a singleton pup and I've tried verbal corrections, ignoring, praising (good quiet) before incidents, etc. It sounds like an alert/aggressive warning bark like she's some tough nut instead of 7 lbs of fluff. She got her CGC title at 6 months where she packed up w/ the other 8 dogs quickly and she isn't going off at the other dogs at agility, she's focused on me. I'll be searching for your other vids on how to teach quiet wish me luck. Coincidentally to this podcast, have you tried/what do you think of the Claudia Fugazza methods of teaching dogs by social learning to augment primary training?
Good teacher l love that am Dog Trainer be blessed

Thank you for this podcast. Do you think this training would be beneficial for snake avoidance training? I had a dog who passed away last year that would alert us when a snake was in the yard. Now that he is no longer with us I’m concerned about my current dogs getting bit by a rattle snake.
Thanks for this great info! I would like to teach this to my three year old Aussie as another motivation tool for agility, which we need. How do you use it with This! in your agility? For example, do you ask for the behavior just before she starts working? I’m envisioning asking for the bark just before entering the ring or when we enter the ring so that the timing is just before we run. Thanks!
We'd love for you to give this a try and let us know if it helped! Yes, Susan asks for "scary" before she starts working with this, and sometimes when This! is between her legs at the start line of a sequence or course.
My agility trainer suggested teaching my vizsla to bark on the startline to help her from being distracted (she will often sniff and roll, particularly on astro), but she is a super quiet dog. The only time she ever barks is an alert bark say if someone goes past the house, she's never liked other dogs barking at her.
The only noise she does make is whining when she greets me with a toy in her mouth. Any suggestions?
The alternative he suggested was asking her to switch from a down to a sit or similar so she's focused and listening before I release her off the start
Hi Kirsty, that's a great idea! Susan goes over that in the video, around minute three if you'd like to watch again ❤️
Sooo next, how do we turn off a bark? ?😉. Thanks! 🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪
Woof
I love that, thank you, Susan! 🫶🏻 Now, how do I teach quiet? Will teaching speak help me to teach quiet? I have tried rewarding quiet while she watches the golf course and golfers go by but she doesn’t make the connection so I am doing something wrong. I really need quuiieeet. 😅🫶🏻
Rather than teach quiet, I taught whisper which was a variation
on the speak cue.
