How Do I Stop Bailey from Barking ALL the time? (long)

Hi Guys,

This may sound silly to you, but it's an ongoing problem in my house. My chihuahua (Bailey) barks ALL the time. Don't get me wrong, he's a wonderful watch dog. However, when DH leaves for work in the morning, Bailey barks at him when he's LEAVING! If DH leaves a room, and comes back in, he barks. If DH goes to give me a kiss goodbye, he'll bark at him. It's constant. The thing is, we want to start TTC this summer. I can't have a dog barking CONSTANTLY with a baby in the house. Giving him away is NOT an option. I love him way too much. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

HTH Good Luck!



This is almost exactly what we did with my dog (many years ago). It does work!

Good luck!

I use to have a dog years ago that would bark continously, a pin droped, somone came over , someone left , always barked, at the time my vet suggested taking coins & puttin them in a empty coffee tin , When he barks shake the tin. The noise scares em, It worked,,

I agree. Try the can full of coins/marbles, etc. Also, try bitter apple spray when they bark, by saying no and spraying the spray.

Our dog only barks when she feels one of her owners is being threatened, or at night when she hears something by the house and wants to alert us. She doesn't bark at other dogs, but will crane an ear up to listen.
