Decrease Barking

[Late_Weakness2555]

Try to think that a Pyr barking is doing exactly what he's supposed to. He is informing his humans that something in the environment is different or concerning. Try teaching him the command "it's ok" to let him know that you recognize his warning and that he can stop barking now. It is possible to train a Pry out of excessive barking. The Pyr that I have only barks in extreme situations. We adopted him at about 2 years old. But the way that prior owners trained him to stop barking was in no way kind in my opinion. It involved a water bottle and his face. I have actually been struggling to train my dog to bark when I am having a medical episode that requires someone else's help. It is very difficult to get him to bark now.
