Amanda, you can train her to stop barking by using a childs "water pistol", you first tell her "no" when she starts to bark, if she keeps barking you shoot her with the water pistol, it does not hurt her but most pekes do not like getting water sprayed at them, you have to be very persistant and keep up the disipline, if you have to stand there for 20 minutes spraying her after every bark then that is what you have to do. One other thing you can try is leaving a radio on low in the room she is in as it will mask any outside noise she hears during the night.

No it is not safe with this breed to have her "debarked"

Another thing that works is to place a few pebbles or pennies in a pop can , tape the opening and every time she barks, say "no" first then if she barks, toss the can near her NOT at her, the idea is to scare her a bit and let her know the scary thing happens when she barks. Yes dogs that are partially blind will bark more often as they see something move but cannot see what it is, that makes them nervous.

Best of luck and please let me know if you have any other problems.
