Barking Dog

[lochlynn]

I have a five year old lab/border collie mix and a two year old pug/jrt we recently moved in with my boyfriend and the neighbours have complained that everytime we leave the lab barks constatly. This is unusual because in the other building we lived in, he was quiet whenever I was out, he would only bark when I was home!! I know this from the neighbours telling me how quiet they were whenever I was gone. I dont want any problems with our new neighbours and have been contacted and warned by management several times already. They are only left alone for a max of two hours a day and are walked four to five times a day for about an hour and a half. Any advice? Please help.

How long at the new place?  You know what he is barking at?
Have you tried using Kongs?  I'd try that and see if they will maybe keep him occupied

My dogs did the same thing and i would leave the tv on or sometimes a radio so they wouldnt hear anything outside or the neighbors and they did good there was no more complaints of them barking once i left a tv or radio on for them
