How Do I Train My Dog to Not Bark as Much?

Question by sfowler0817: How do I train my dog to not bark as much?
I have a 3 year old Lhasa Apso who barks non stop! She barks whenever she hears someone outside, or someone other than myself or my mother comes in the door. And then she doesn’t stop barking until about 30 minutes after that person is still in the house. I have another dog who doesn’t do this, and I would think she would learn from him. I need her to learn its not ok to do this as I’m thinking of getting an apartment and that simply won’t work. Some people suggested a “bark collar” however I’m somewhat weary of them, I think they’re someone cruel. I need a safe yet effective way to get her to stop that won’t take years to correct. Help!

* Some breeds tend to bark more than others. Check with other owners to find out if your dog’s barking habits are normal.
* It takes time to get your dog to break the habit of excessive barking. Remain calm and patient, and eventually he will bark only when it’s appropriate.
* If you have trouble getting your dog to stop barking, consult a veterinarian trained in behavioral problems.
