It worked the first time we did it!!!! My DH keeps a can beside his chair and I have one beside my chair....if Buddy starts barking & jabbering we shake the can and he immediately STOPS!!!! We were amazed!!! Also works with the door bell....when the door bell rings we shake the can and say, "no bark"!!! He has now stopped barking at the door bell!!!!
I only used the cans for about 2 or 3 days and the jabbering/barking stopped!!! Now I just have to say, "no bark"!!! It was a miracle solution for us!!!

(I need to thank Ms. Carol (her Yorkie is also named Buddy) for this suggestion)!!!

BUT.....I do think you need to address the issue with your son too....he has to do his part too. He cannot continue to upset your furbaby!!! Good Luck!!!!
Thank you... Good suggestion. And I am trying with my son, but I understand why he so upset. He just started telling me that I love the dogs more than him. So I need to reassure him that I love him just as much as I love my dogs I didn't know he was feeling this way I spend a lot of time with my babies so now I need to find something to do with just him
