Ep 107 Why Your Dog Loses Their Barking Mind at the Window (& What to Do About It)

Does your dog have a meltdown every time something walks past the window? This is a super common struggle, and no, it’s not because your dog is simply “being naughty” or trying to run the neighbourhood! In this episode, we unpack why window barking happens, why it feels so exhausting, and why the usual reactions often leave everyone more stressed. We talk about what’s actually going on in your dog’s brain in those moments and how everyday life can quietly reinforce the behaviour without us realising. With actionable tips you can implement immediately, we’ll help you move out of firefighting mode to stop your dog barking at the window and regain quiet in your living room. If you’re tired of jumping up every time there’s noise outside, this episode will completely change how you look at the problem. ................Whether your dog is unpredictable with other dogs or predictably bad…Whether it looks like freezing, barking, lunging or running away…Whether you are just starting out on your dog-owning journey or your dog has been labelled as having a “behaviour problem”…… this episode is for you and is going to give you huge insights!Want to join the Help!
