How to stop a Bichon Frize from barking? If a Bichon Frize likes to bark, you can first give it its favorite toy to divert its attention; you can also reprimand it severely when the Bichon Frize is barking and wait until it stops barking. Then give rewards; or you can take the Bichon out for more exercise to release its energy so that it does not have extra energy to bark.

1. Give it toys

If there is something to stop your dog’s mouth, they won’t have time to bark. Those that are harder to bite are more challenging. So next time when you are ready to go out, give him his favorite chew toy first so that he can pass the boring time.

　2. Reprimands and rewards

If the dog refuses to shut up, the owner should immediately reprimand it in a firm voice: "Quiet." When the dog stops barking, the owner may wish to give it some snacks or words of praise to encourage it. The purpose of this is to let the dog know that being obedient and staying quiet can be favored and rewarded by the owner.

3. Exercise more

Sufficient exercise can consume your dog’s energy. After a long day of playing or running, dogs would rather get a good night's sleep than waste their energy barking.

4. Extinguish its enthusiasm

Spraying water from a water gun can also stop dogs from barking. When they bark non-stop, the director should give a verbal warning first. If they still don't listen to the warning, try using a water gun to calm them down. But you need to aim at their bodies to avoid accidentally shooting at the head.

5. Anti-barking collar

In addition to masks, there is also an anti-barking collar that can be used to stop dogs from barking. Sensors on the collar detect their calls and then emit high-frequency sounds or mild electric shocks. Some wait for a while before starting to teach the movements. Although this product is very effective, you should still seek the advice of a veterinary expert before using it.
