Dogs barking

Question
I have a Pom that was lost and I adopted. He was very quiet at first (he is between 2-5 years old). Now he is barking a lot, and is becomming psycho pup to the extent he is driving my neigbors crazy. He barks at falling leaves, squirrels, and coming home. I  play with him every day. We also have 2 cats he is getting used to quite nicely.

Answer
Hi Cathy.
Animal massage is a good way to help train a dog not to bark.
I have used the Tellington-Touch method for years.
Go to this site and read about the massages, and you can order a video from that site, to teach you how to do the massages so you get the right results.

An obedience classwould be good too. Petsmart and Petco have weekend group obedience classes.
Well worth the money, and fun besides.
