I know of no natural product that you can give to stop barking.
TRAINING would be the answer.
Find a deterant to use on the dog when she is barking.
Some people have had good luck with the ultra sonci devices and bark collars that use either citronella spary or a slight shock work the best. They are easy to use just put the collar on and turn it on it will correct the dog when they bark.
The shock ones work very well and the shock is like one from static electircity in the carpet. It does not really hurt but it sure does get your attention right now. And that is the key to stopping barking changing the dogs focus at the time of the bark.
Good luck.

I have no experience with this product, but I'm pretty confident in saying it's not going to work. Your dog is barking for a reason. Is she getting enough exercise? Does she have free access to a window where she can bark at people walking by? Is she trying to get your attention? Using some product to try and get your dog to stop barking isn't going to help. There's a reason she's barking, you just have to figure out what it is.

If she's barking for no reason what-so-ever, then she IS trying to communicate and get your attention. This is called annoyance barking and it's nothing other than a training issue.

Ask your vet for the name of a good pet behaviorist and work with the dog - It's the only thing that's going to help you.

Those are just vitamins, I don't know how they could actually make her stop barking. You need to discipline her so she knows that just barking for no reason is wrong.

She most likely is barking because she is bored and knows that when she does bark, she will get your attention. Try this, every time she barks for no reason, squirt her with a water bottle, say calmy, "quiet" to her just do it and walk away. She will come to associate quiet with a squirt of water and eventually you can just say quiet and she will stop barking.

Don't but it-it just a gimmick. The only way to get your dog to stop barking is with proper training. Conatct a certified trainer or behaviorist for help.

A dog should be trained on how to eat, walk with you, not to bark, potty training and sleep on its place etc. You can teach anything to your puppy, dogs get trained easily with some good instructions. If you want some good training tips visit https://tr.im/ZN0Vs

If properly trained, they should also understand whistle and gesture equivalents for all the relevant commands, e.g. short whistle or finger raised sit, long whistle or flat hand lay down, and so on.

It's important that they also get gestures and whistles as voice may not be sufficient over long distances and under certain circumstances.

It's not going to work.
You CAN buy barker breakers online.

These will emit a high frequency sound to startle the dog & stop the bark process.
Some work automatically & can be set to work when you aren't home.
I have a kennel full of Collies - notorious barkers! This actually works with them - which is amazing.
When we are at dog shows & my dogs insist on barking at everything in sight - I keep a spray bottle of water nearby. All they have to do is SEE the bottle now, and they quiet down.

I have heard of this, but I don't know whats in the ingredients and I would not give to my dogs anything that could alter there behavior chemically.
I will suggest getting a squirt gun and everytime she barks squirt her in the face. I have used bitter apple for my yappy schnauzers and all I do is reach for the squirt gun or the apple bottle and silence.
