we have to crate him otherwise he will rip up the house but even we didnt crate him one time, he still barked. i have tried everything people said on here. includings toys,kongs, food, water, music, tv, radio everything! but he still barks. and he barks very loud as well. its annoying the neighbours. i'm not buying a bark collar or muzzle, they are cruel and too expensive
thanks if anyone can help me
he usually barks for 5 minutes very loudly and then stops. sometimes he'll eat his food first and then start barking
i take him for walks everyday. i just came back from an hour long walk at the park and i needed to go shopping. i thought he would be too tired too bark so i was pretty sure. sure enough, i come home tom find him barking again
how do i stop it?
exercise doesnt even work!

my pom does that too. it's very annoying cause i live in a apartment and neighbors complain. i bought thosr rawhide gum sticks for dogs (not that expensive and good quality). everytime i leave the house i give it to her. i know its a waste of money giving one everytime you leave the house but personally, i think it is worth it. it's very delicious and good for dogs. get the one that comes in a pack. when ur gonna be out for just a lil while tell another person to calm him down or just ignore him he'll eventually stop. if ur leaving for a long time give a gum stick. hope u the best of luck =]

Get professional help from a real dog trainer or behaviorist. I lived next to a dog like that for 6 months, and I can tell you it is VERY annoying to the neighbors and you should know they are all having thoughts of killing your dog and you. There is nothing worse to live next to.
Fix it before the people revolt!!

when you leave they think your never coming back and so maybe he thinks if he barks you will come back and comfort him.
