My dog started randomly barking recently. It doesn't appear to be at anything. No one is at the door, no one is driving by, I don't see any animals outside, etc. This is kind of concerning, my friend thinks I have a ghost in the house. Has this ever happened to anyone?
 
It can be confusing when your dog starts barking at what seems like nothing. Dogs pick up on things we can't, like noises or smells, but I understand why it might feel a bit unsettling! As for the idea of should you bark like a dog to your dog? it's probably not the best approach. It could confuse or stress them out more. Instead, try distracting them with a toy or a treat, or use a calm command to help them settle down. It might just be their way of responding to something small in their environment that we can't notice.
 
Agree with @dogshabit you should not bark like a dog to your dog, and treats are a good distraction to help them to stop. My friend's dog does the same thing in the middle of the night and is concerned too so you're not alone! If your dog seems agitated, pacing, or showing other signs of distress, it could be helpful to look for environmental triggers, or even speak to a vet in case there's something deeper going on with their mental or physical health.
 
It can be hard to do well in an online statistics class if you do not know much about the subject. It is possible that you will find yourself having difficulty taking the ideas, getting behind on your tasks, and experiencing feelings of being overwhelmed. When faced with such circumstances, it is only reasonable to raise the question, " Can you pay someone to do my online stats class for me?" To succeed in an online statistics programme, you need the correct mentality and tactics. Due to the fact that traditional classroom learning necessitates a distinct approach, it is essential to be well-prepared and to devise a strategy before enrolling in online classes. Here are some of the top online statistics class suggestions.
