Shades down, leave the TV on with noise. The reason dogs bark is because they are reacting to external stimulation. If they can't discern it from an internal source, they don't bark.
But there a few on here I'd let my dogs poop on their site. Probably the same grumpy old farts that blast their TV every evening because they are half deaf.
My dogs can quite easily discern a noise coming from outside versus inside regardless of whether they can see.
And a dog who barks at knocking or a doorbell will often bark at those sounds on a tv. So I'd be inclined to say the exact opposite is true:
Dogs barks at various noises and they can't always discern it's coming from a tv or radio, so they may well bark even if there's nothing there.
I only have experience with about 20 dogs, I admit that's limited. But never had an issue, even with yappers. So, pretty much calling BS.
And if that is the case I'd question how much noise your making to stimulate the dogs.
Ps- your rv has a doorbell....people knock?
