I've had the same prob with my two babies, mostly because I was new here, and didn't have people coming over too much...one of my probs too, was I did want the dogs to bark at strangers cos my husband works nights, and I'm here by myself, so I had to kinda find a happy medium here...anyhow... I started making friends, and suddenlly this was a huge problem...one thing that worked was keeping them in another room when I knew company was coming over, and letting them out once my friends were in and settled, and by that time the dogs had both pretty much stopped the intense barking...they didn't feel so intiimidated I guess with a bunch of strangers looming over them...maybe too you can enlist a friends help to knock on the door while you train Daisy not to bark or run back and forth when your company is just coming in the door...a leash can help you control her with this...also I've heard many say the training at petsmart has really helped with their babies too...they have classes you go to to help with this sort of problem...hope this helps.

Love my Daisy and is absolutely fantastic when she is around the
family but when people come over she goes crazy. Barking, running at
them and then turning around to run away and then run up to them again
barking.
I tried telling people not to ring the doorbell, then I give the
people who come in treats to give to her. Doesn't make a difference.
She just barks at them for at least 30 minutes.
I am really worried because now we are getting a foster child,
infant, and how is she going to act around her?
