I have a sheltie named Sasha and she is really smart. She loves to look out the sliding glass doors in our apartment, but she barks at everything, like leaves blowing by in the wind, cars that drive by and pretty much anything else that moves. I don't mind that she barks, but she doesn't stop. I know I'll never train the "guard dog" mentality out of her, and I'm glad she lets us know when someone is out there. It's just that she will continue barking until you get up in her face. We have tried everything. We distract her with water bottles and we have tried the spray bottle. But short of beating her, or trying a shock collar, does anyone know of anything to get her to stop barking once we know that there is someone out there? Multiple suggestions and personal experience are more than welcome!
