Does anyone have any tips on controlling barking for a Morkie breed?

I have no idea what a Morkie is, one of the "designer" mixes ? But I figured it was a dog. I would direct you to Ceasar Milan's website. He is called the Dog Whisperer, he is on TLC I believe and talks about incesant (sp?) barking being a dogs mind racing and being overexcited. I am not a dog person (for the barking reason alone!) but I do know I love his show and am amazed at what he can do (he is a short little guy who has a LOT of power when it comes to dog, only by his body language and voice).
Hope that helps! Good luck! I am sure you and your neighbors will be much happier when your morkie is.
Someone else just mentioned the show, Dog Whisperer to me. I'll check it out thank you. Also, a Morky is a cross between a Maltese and a Yorkshire Terrier.
I have a Yorkie. He is going to be three years old soon. The tip I got from my breeder is to keep a spray water bottle around and when he barks at inappropriate times to squirt him (preferrably in the face) and say no. If that doesn't stop him, put in a little white vinegar in the water.
Not sure what a "Morkie" is but if it barks, it must be a dog!! :-)
If you have exhausted every idea you can think of teaching your dog not to bark constantly, I suggest a no-bark collar. This is a self-teaching collar and comes in all sizes. I use one on my German Shepherd who loves to bark at squirrels in my yard. I purchased the collar online from: http://www.gundogsupply.com
These collars were designed for field dogs but work for any dog that drives everyone crazy with the constant, non-stop barking.
Be sure to read the instructions carefully and follow them carefully.
