| Dog Barking problems My dog has been barking at people or things she sees while in the car. It scares the people and I'm so embarrased. She barks nonstop at the people and it really prevents me from taking her somewhere. Also she barks a lot at home. I've tried several methods and trying a few more in another thread I just read. She mostly barks at some weird noises as well as the noise of a squirrel. Even when someone knocks on the door she barks. Also when a neighbor's cleaners come and use those blowers and lawnmowers, she barks. She barks at just about anything. One more question, how do you just prevent your dogs from barking in independence day when the firecrackers go off? My neighborhood does a lot of firecracking and I can never seem to make her stop barking. I would really appreciate some help. |

| Some more questions I forgot to ask. She also barks at other dogs a lot. She doesn't even care if it's a pitbull or any other dogs. One more not realting to barking. She is very hyper when she meet a new person. It make it hard for me to take her to a vet because she won't stay still and just jumps on the people to try to lick them. It's impossible to take her temp, weight, etc. |

YorkieTalk Newbie! | I have some of the same problems, I think the firecrackers are just too loud,my pup was petrified. I did take him to training classes, they said you have to teach them to bark before you teach them to be quiet, when he's barking put your fingers together and say speak, then say enough or quiet and use a hand signal consistantly. He will get it eventually. I suggest getting Victoria Stilwell's book about training, she is very easy to follow.. good luck |

| I have the same issues with Sydney. So do my parents' with their Yorkie Ginger. But Sydney will not only bark at others walking, jogging, or bicycling while riding in the car, she will also bark when someone gets out of the car. Any suggestions? |
