Question
I have 2 staffie's and my male one barks continuously at people when they come in and at the slightest noise, we have just had a baby so it has become quite a problem. and my female has started to get really flaky ears and skin but mostly the ears. people have been telling me to feed her fish but  can I use a omega 3 liquid

Answer
omega 3 fatty acids are just fine  or salmon.....   before someone comes in put the male on leash and make him sit and stay...keep getting in his face (literally) when he moves or barks...This will have to be done constantly until he gets it...Make him sit stay/down in a calm submission while people go in and out of your house...You will have to stage this with some of your friends.   Do it for a full day until he stops barking...he will return to the barking the next day and the day after that,,, repeat the process over each day. If you do this intensely for 3 days, By the fourth day he should be better.
