I live in a apartment, so its starting to be a problem. He proably gets left along MAYBE 2hrs a day...he is trained. He is a lhaso apso, and its non stop bark, until someone gets home and my neighbors are complaining on me.I leave the television on, his toys out, and lights on...

Your dog probably has separation anxiety... maybe see a vet or get advice from a dog specialist or vet

Buy a bark collar on him, or if you want to wean him really slow, you get a clean spray bottle and fill it with water, and when he barks spray his nose. (the spraying method is considered more humane for people who love dogs or animals for that matter.)

You can train your dog...You MUST get a muzzle for now...it's not cruel -they can eat and drink while they have it on they just can't bark (praise the Lord)...cruel would be not to get it and to have to lose your dog...believe me it is not a bad thing- it is a great solution...You can purchase muzzles cheap at Pet-co or other places-bring your dog to ensure it fits...If you can afford obedience classes go for it, but if not get a book at the library or look on-line for dog training...When you are home work with your dog and you can beat this problem...some people use a shock collar but I don't recommend it, just pull out the muzzle if she starts barking...act like you are leaving but just step outside and wait for your dog to start barking and go back in and muzzle her each time...she will eventually knock it off and if not, a muzzle doesn't hurt her it just stops her from barking...God Bless You!!!Sista C

I have 2 small dogs that use to do the smae thing and one day we decided to turn the t.v on for them when we left and it worked. So now when ever we leave home we turn the t.v on for them.

Whenever I left the room, my dog (a papillon) would start barking. I tried yelling at her, but you can guess that didn't help. I then tried a muzzle. Everytime I left the room and she started barking, I went back in the room, yelled at her, and put the muzzle on her. I would then leave the room for about 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, I would return to take off the muzzle. Again, I tried leaving the room to see if she would start barking. When she started barking, then I would repeat the whole process all over again. It didn't take her long to realize that if she was quiet, she didn't have to wear the muzzle.Just for those of you who are worried about my method, don't worry, I would never leave the muzzle on for more than 10 minutes. I know that dogs need to keep their mouths open to pant so that they can cool down when they are hot, and to eat and drink.And just to let you know, my dog was very hard to train. She was so cute, but a little dumb. Teaching her not to bark was the only thing I didn't have a hard time doing. I was very surprised.
