Try your local pet store for obedience classes. Take him to do his thing at the SAME SPOT outside and after the following times; 1. Immediately potty when he wakes up in the morning 2. If he snifs around 3. If he circles around the house 4. After naps 5. After playing with him 6. When he starts getting aggitated or fussy Barking: You really need to start using commands. When he barks say "NO BARK ".... if he responds positively say "GOOD BOY " then give him a yummy treat. He needs a good reward for this, as he has formed a bad habbit, which is hard to break. Encourage him, tell him he is good. You need to repeat yourself A LOT.... dogs have a very short memory. Any commands you teach him needs to be done on a repetitive basis. Start walking him after he eats dinner, then he will do his thing and be tired for the evening and YOU CAN REST. Have fun.

Make sure you find a good training class with experienced trainers - not one of those which operates on a franchise. Have a look here: apdt.co.uk/ trainers_area.asp?area= Lancashire Also ask at your vet, local library & pet shop.
