Pitch: higher-pitched sounds are usually related to non-threatening situations. So, if your dog is making high-pitched barking noises, you probably have nothing to worry about. On the other hand, lower-pitched sounds are a sign of aggressiveness – therefore, the dog is probably feeling threatened and is fearful of the situation he is dealing with.
Duration: when a dog’s bark is long, it usually is a sign that he is making his intentions known. The dog probably will act aggressively if he perceives that the situation he is facing might put him in danger.
