Usually there is always a reason they are barking. Dogs hear frequencies we humans cannot hear. They also have a better nose than us and probably smell something they want or want to warn about.
Or perhaps it's barking at you. Barking is a way dogs communicate, because they can't talk. Your dog barking can be excitement, aggression, fear, or a demand. "Take me out!" "Who are you!". Put yourself in your dog's paws and consider what may have triggered it or what they want.
