You cannot tell the cuckoo not to sing! It might be troublesome for humans but there are many things about humans that animals do not like. I would say that the barking dog seeing you after a long time is a sure sign of its healthy emotions. How else can a dog express it feelings except by barking? After the trauma of a separation from you it opens up its floodgates of emotions. You should feel happy for receiving this undiluted love. Now for some practical tips. There are in the market three types of dog collars that will deter the dog from barking. The first kind gives the dog a mild shock as soon as the collar gets a signal from its barking. The second kind triggers off ultrasonic sound (that humans cannot hear) and deter the dog from barking. The third type of collar has a device fitted that releases a repugnant smell as soon as the dog barks. It associates the unpleasant sensations of shock, sound and smell with its barking and controls it. Many pet lovers are averse to these collars and so I have a simple solution. Roll a newspaper into a pseudo stick and whack it in front of the dog, without hitting it. The paper roll will give out a loud noise and deter the dog. Even if the dog gets accidentally hit by the missile, it will not get hurt but it will get the message that such show of exuberance is not welcome. Anita Hi Milly

I have a 4 year-old beagle (Abby). I've had her since she was a baby and yes, like all beagles she likes attention and likes t be near people all the time. Also, like all beagles, she has a very loud and annoying bark/houl mix. She's typically quiet but whenever she gets excited she goes off barking and there's no way to stop her. This typically happens when she sees me after I leave her at a boarding place or someone's house when I travel or when someone comes to our house (any guests she's happy to see like family members or friends). I understand that she does it because sje's excited to see me or other people but I wish I knew a way to stop her from doing this as it is highly annoying not just for me but mostly for the people that happen to be around at the time. Any tips on how to get her to stop this? Thanks in advance! HELP! I have a 4 year-old beagle (Abby).
