Not the usual problem I know. We have a sweet natured terrier who thinks EVERYONE is her friend - gypsies, Tesco man, all delivery drivers - and they have come just to play with her. We would prefer if she would bark at strangers!

Of course she can bark - if she is uncertain of something or frightened, etc. but not people.
I hesitate to encourage too much, incase she goes the other way, but any suggestions?
 
This ^^! I am horrified that my youngsters are quite vocal, Bear is now known as Barky Bear! My first two never barked, much nicer. :)
 
Having to listen to my neighbours dog bark at apparently nothing at regular intervals throughout the day, I'm glad my own dog is not a barker. None of my dogs have been and I hope they never will be :D
