Your tracker is equipped with a special sensor that detects changes in volume levels. This means it knows when your dog is barking as opposed to breathing or other sounds.
Bark Monitoring alerts you to unusual changes in your dog’s barking patterns over the last 7 days, which could indicate potential anxiety or discomfort. This can be for both excessive or decreased barking. Being aware of these shifts helps you keep your dog safe and content.
If case your dog is barking excessively in the last 24 hours, you'll receive a notification alerting you to this.

Why Bark Monitoring is important, according to a vet say:
Barking is probably the best way a dog can communicate how they’re feeling. While some dogs bark a lot, and some less, pet owners need to be aware of changes. If your dog suddenly starts barking more or less than usual, it could be a sign that they’re in pain or distressed.

Looking for answers? You've come to the right place.
If your dog is barking more than normal, it could be due to anxiety, stress, boredom, or a need for attention. Changes in their environment—like a new pet, unfamiliar noises, or being left alone for long periods—can trigger excessive barking.
Dogs may also bark more if they’re feeling territorial or reacting to perceived threats. In some cases, increased barking could indicate discomfort or health issues, so it’s important to monitor for other signs like restlessness or unusual behavior.
A decrease in barking can sometimes point to underlying health problems, pain, or illness. An unusual decrease in barking could be due to fatigue, illness, or even aging, as older dogs often become less vocal.
Keep an eye out for additional symptoms like changes in appetite, energy levels, or mobility. If your dog’s barking patterns change significantly, it’s a good idea to consult your vet for a check-up.
Desensitization training: Get your dog comfortable with being alone. Start with short separations, gradually increasing time away. Keep departures and arrivals low-key to avoid exciting them.
Keep them active: Help your dog release energy to reduce stress by ensuring they get ample exercise when you're together.
Create a comfy home: Make your dog's environment feel safe and disturbance-free. Close the curtains, make their bed comfortable, or leave out their favorite toys and treats.
