Dogs often start barking when they see cars on the street.
In this article, we will tell you how you can wean your pet from this behavior.
Why does a dog lunge at a car
Typically, dogs run after cars because of their chasing instinct.
This happens because a fast moving car seems like prey or a threat to them.
For safety, it is important to teach your pet to stay in place or nearby on command.
Usually this pursuit ends as soon as the car leaves the territory that the dog considers its own.
How to stop a dog from lunging at cars
For your own safety and your dog's, it is important to wean your pet from this behavior.
Since dogs often exhibit this unwanted reaction as a result of the need to chase an elusive object, try redirecting your dog's attention when he sees the car.
For example, use a ball or stick to redirect your pet's attention.
Simply throw the toys in the opposite direction of the oncoming vehicle.
