If he gets a bark out first, then you say ACK (a bit loud) and touch him at the same time to re-direct his attention, then when he quits, praise and give a treat. Keep this up for about 15 to 20 minutes three times a day. While he is in training, keep him as far away from that door as possible, even if you have to crate him in the bedroom and just take him outside every hour or so. If you seriously work at this, it shouldn't take more than two or three days.
This IS WORKING FOR ME THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH

WE ARE MAKING PROGRESS. In only 1 day. I am doing it when we go for walks and see other dogs and people too. I reel him in really close to me and get down and make him look at me with a treat. He has calmed down so much. Even my Crabby husband is making comments.

WHAAAHHHHH WHHHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
