What s wrong with the dog barking in the middle of the night?

Common reasons why dogs bark in the middle of the night: lack of security, hunger, illness, and alert instinct. The barking caused by insecurity and hunger is generally normal for dogs to have normal spirit and appetite. At this time, the dog can stop barking by appropriate soothing, companionship and feeding. If the dog keeps barking at night, you need to pay attention to whether there are abnormal noises or strangers around the door. It may be that the dog is reminding the owner. If the dog is in a bad spirit, has no appetite, and keeps barking, it is recommended to consider whether it is sick. It is recommended to take it to the hospital for examination;

1.  Lack of security

Common puppies or timid and sensitive dogs. The puppies have just left the dog mother because they are not accompanied by the dog mother and the environment is unfamiliar, and they will feel fear, panic, etc. They want to ask for help or look for the dog mother through barking. At this time, the owner needs to comfort and accompany them to help the puppies become familiar with the environment and enhance their feelings, which can effectively alleviate their uneasy barking.

2. Hungry

The puppies have strong digestive and absorption capacity. If they are hungry in the middle of the night, they will remind their owner to feed them through a shout. At this time, they can feed some food appropriately to relieve their hunger and the shouting will stop.

3. Warning Instinct

Most dogs have door-watching instincts. If strangers or abnormal sounds appear around, they will act as a deterrent effect through barking. After the deterrent effect takes effect, the dog will generally not bark. If you find that the dog is still barking wildly, it is recommended that the owner get up to check whether there are abnormal points in the surrounding environment.

4.  Sick

If the dog is depressed, has no appetite, and has weak limbs, but still keeps chirping, consider whether it is caused by physical pain or discomfort. Common causes include gastrointestinal tract, neuritis, etc. It is recommended to take it to the hospital for examination and confirm the cause.
