the best way would be to spray some water at it and it really doesnt hurt. Most dogs hate water so I think it will stop barking and I disagree with the fifth person who answered. How can you put a shock collar on a poor creature? And no offense or anything but why does it matter if a dog barks, i mean theyre just talking to you.

Everyone barks at little kids under the age of three and over the age of three. Take the animal to dog training classes. Its probably bored and needs stimulation.

I'm guessing that the dog is older than 2 yrs.
I suggest that you train her / him.
**Note: I will refer to the dog as him or he**
First, give your dog a lot of opportunities to meet people. Everytime he barks, give him a light spanking. When he starts to develop a good understanding to be nice to people, give him a treat.
**Warning: You don't want to do this too much as it may confuse your dog into thinking that barking for whatever reason is a bad thing**

i think those collars that give a shock should be used on the owners you can get a much more desirable collars that just gives off a citrus smell ....sorry thats my opinion...a spray water bottle is a good idea but why not just distract your dog do not shout or the dog will just bark louder just say no..and distract .....

Well Unless you want to torture your dog by putting a shock collar on which I wouldn't recommend, Its perfectly normal for a dog to bark its their way of communication!

your dog barks to let you know someone is there start to call them in and reward him/her for this. Do this all the time at first then cut down treats but do not stop altogether

I think that obedience classes are the best option. I tried the anti barking collar, but it didn't work with my dog, unfortunately.
GOOD LUCK!!!!
