Bark Training
You can think of there as being two types of bark training. There is no barking bark training in which you simply teach your dog not to bark at anything he encounters in his environment. Then, there is watchdog training, in which you teach your dog to bark at some things but not at others.
One of our sister sites, barkingdogs.net, offers both a quick explanation of how you can train your dog not to bark as well as a more detailed examination of the process of quieting your dog using the formula for changing behavior.
Barkingdogs.net also offers a page of brief instruction on how to train a watchdog, while as part of the advanced course, this website offers more detailed information on how to train a world-class watchdog.
