We have progress. When I come home from work, I go and greet the horses first. If Patience is in the back yard and doesn't bark, I tell her good girl, no bark. If she is barking, I say, enough bark. If she stops barking, I tell her good girl again. If she continues to bark, I ignore her until she does stop. Once she stops, I do the praise again. Although the barking has not ceased totally, there has been progress and we're getting there. I just have to have a little more patience and not expect results overnight.
I noticed when I would go over to her to correct her, she would sit down when she saw me coming. When I stepped on the porch, she would flop down on her side and cover her face with her paws. I realized that she was having flash backs. As many of you know, she was a stray. I am fairly sure she had been abused. I decided to not do any physical correction on her because I didn't want to put her through the flashbacks. As long as the praise works, I think I'll stick with that.
Again, thanks to everyone for the wonderful advise. It's nice to have somewhere to go where everyone is not only supportive, but also understands and wants to help.
