Dear Joe,

Maybe your dog Starr would feel safer if she were confined to your room but she could still see the rest of your house- have you tried putting up the baby gates in the doorway to your room so she can't destroy the door?
I know barking can be such a problem because it is self-reinforcing for most dogs. There is a very good book that addresses problem barking (and other problems), it's called Outwitting Dogs by Terry Ryan and Kirsten Mortensen. One tip I found really useful - and it also worked with one of my dogs who had slight seperation issues when I adopted her- is to make sure that when you are not in the house and you hear your dog barking, do not come back inside as your dog might see this as a reward for barking.
Well, good luck with Starr, I hope everything works out ok!
