#9 Interpreting Different Barks
Dog owners should understand that not all barking signifies stress or discomfort. Paying attention to the tone and pattern of the bark can help you respond appropriately and avoid confusing your dog. A bark that starts at a low pitch and gradually rises often indicates a desire to play.
The higher the pitch, the more it reflects their excitement and eagerness to engage in playful activities. This type of barking usually means they are not feeling threatened.
