There are methods of training you can use to help control your puppy’s barking.

One is a shock collar. When the dog barks, it sends a little shock through them. If they persist in barking, the shock gets worse. It teaches them not to do it. I have never used it and don’t know how I feel about it, but a friend of mine uses it on her puppy. Now, as soon as she takes it out, he stops barking.

You should try to explain to your Dad that animals are a commitment, they are like people. You can’t throw a dog out of the house for barking…that’s what they do.
