How to stop your dogs barking at night time due to outside noise

Sometimes we take care of dogs who suddenly bark at middle of the night , or early morning when they hear noises of the lift in the hall way or neighbors getting to work.  These sudden barks would wake me up and are not pleasant. 

I have been successful in playing brown noise / rainy sounds from Spotify or YouTube on loudspeakers in the living room where the dogs sleep to cover /mask any sudden noises outside so the dogs don’t bark at all until you, the human, get a good night sleep and rise and shine! 

Where to Get White, Pink, and Brown Noise

You have many options for adding a color noise to your sleep routine. For example, you can:

• Get a noise app from your smartphone’s app store or on YouTube, then play it as you go to sleep at night.
• Find a clip of your choice of color noise online. Download a looping track from organizations like the American Tinnitus Association or the Misophonia Institute.
• Get a sound machine or noise generator that specifically gives you a choice between white, pink, or brown noise.

My favorite is this podcast on Spotify which they offer 12 hours long non stop rain sound with crackling fire!

Add them to your library and happy relaxing without dogs barking!
