Abstract
Dogs bark for many reasons, and even though they appear to be ‘barking for no reason’ they are in fact trying to communicate something to their owner or anyone who is willing to pay attention. The following are some of the main reasons why dogs bark: lack of exercise inadequate yard space boredom not enough human companionship inadequate shelter from weather conditions hunger or thirst a medical condition provocation disturbances changes to family structure movement outside the dog’s property
