Hi, Arlene,
My little rescue barked! I used my tried and true water squirter. I squirted and when he stopped for even a second I said, "Good boy!" He soon got the idea that he was a "good boy" when he was quiet! Good luck!

Keeping in mind he is slightly deaf. or deaf Of someone come in the house he barks his fool head off. i have tried scolding, holding his nose down, putting him in another room. even spanked him ( one spank) (never to do that again). This is a smart dog. he just dont like people. any ideas would be worth trying.
