Thanks everyone, We live in Brisbane, on the southside. Would there be any benefit to take him to dog obedience school again? And about the collar, it just made our dog scared of us and didn't 'cure' any problems - just made them worse.

I seem to be having issues with barking which has just gotten out of hand. My dog is currently 5 years old (Poodle X Lhasa Apso), and has many barking problems, almost being reported to the council by the neighbours. He sees another dog on the street while we're walking, and off he goes incessantly barking until they pass. We've tried the walking the other direction thing, but it just doesn't work because the other dog is therefore walking behind us, and our dog just gets so worked up that it's even near us. As well, he tends to bark at other dogs and people as they are walking past our home, often at the fence line. We've tried the citronella collar, but it didn't stop him barking when we took the collar off. This has really frustrated us, and we just don't know what to do anymore. If there are any suggestions or comments to help, it would be greatly appreciated.
