Woof woof woof!!!.... For gosh sakes stop that barking dog!!! I know, sometimes barking dogs can really get to you...enough to drive you bonkers and do something stupid.  Before you do that, you need to take a deep breath and step back at the situation.

Let's face it, a dogs only means of communicating to us humans is to bark. That's what dogs do, they bark. So good ole' fido is trying to communicate something to you.
