| Bark, bark, bark Yipes, Scooter has started barking a lot. He barks when I come home, he barks when he goes outside, he barks at the cat who has been here for 2 years, he barks at the neighbors...... I usually point at him and say no bark and then make a shussing noise but it's not working. I don't really know what to do. The neighbor suggested squirting water at him but I'm not sure that's a good idea. Any suggestions?

| Some try coins in an empty can...shake it everytime you don't want him to bark. They get a little scared and don't bark. My cousin just has to say the word "can" and her maltese will stop barking. lol

| I'm going to try it. I'll have to buy a can of soda, I don't drink it but I do have a can of Guinness which should do the job. Thanks for the hint.

| And, hey, if you drink the Guinness first and the shaking thing doesn't work, you probably won't care so much about the barking anymore anyway
