Like snoring—the only way to block out the sound of barking dogs and allow yourself some sleep is with noise masking earbuds. Snoring and Dog Barks fall under the category of Impulsive Noise. This particular type of noise is extremely difficult to block out and other sound blocking technologies are simply not effective at completely eliminating it.
Why is my dog barking
1. Alarm: Any person, animal or thing that startles them or makes them fearful will cause excessive barking.
2. Attention-Seeking: They may need to be let out, want food… or may just want affection.
3. Bored or Lonely: They’re pack animals and become unhappy when left alone too long.
4. Defense of Territory: When a person or another animal has entered what they consider their domain.
5. Emergency: Calling for help when their human is injured.
6. "Hello there": Sometimes barking is just a friendly greeting for a person or another animal.
7. They want to be inside: Where you are.
