My dog is not an excessive barker but I have a friend who's dog is and she says she is going to try this method. She has a toy poodle. Good luck. The private trainer is also a good idea.
hhhmmmmmmmm...Well I have a problem with this now as when its a hot day I spray Pixie with water to cool her down so she's not really afraid of that anymore!
