[nagdu] and... how do you get your dogs to stop barking?

[Natalie]

Hi Jenny,
It's going to take a lot of time and patience, but telling him something 
like quiet or no bark might work.  One of the things I do with Liam if he 
barks when someone comes to the door is say thank you, momma's got it.  Then 
I praise for a good quiet.  Hope it helps.
Best,
Nat and Liam Joshua
