Barking can be one of the annoyances of owning a corgi, or any dog for that matter. However, there are two ways that you can stop it: you can pet your corgi or give him a treat as a distraction. If you choose the latter, consider making the treat a toy instead of a food snack because corgis are prone to obesity unless regularly exercised.
Most of the time corgis are quiet, but every now and then, they will open their mouths to bark at something. Common triggers for barking include someone knocking at your door, someone leaving your home, your dog is hungry, or you’ve trained your corgi to bark (intentionally or accidentally) as a command.
If you teach him this command, you can teach it using the words “speak” or “bark.” Whichever one you choose, you must also teach your corgi when to stop. If he starts barking louder or will not stop once you have told him to bark, put a (non-food/toy) treat in his mouth to help him stop until you have taught him the command “stop.”
Your corgi is also very sensitive psychologically, which can have a affect with little things. For example, if you leave him outside to sleep, then you bring him inside, that can have a great effect on your corgi’s attitude. Even if his bark hurts your ears, teaching him and loving him can help your corgi be quieter by not barking as much.
