Emiliano was like that and sometimes still is. I have found that what
works best is if the "stranger" just ignores him, he'll stop barking. He's
still leery and will watch the person carefully but he will stop barking.
As I socialize him to more and more persons, he is getting better about it
but still would not win a Mr. Congeniality title.

My dog has anthrophobia, which is a fancy way of saying she's afraid of
people. Not all people. She loves the ones she knows, like me, but if a maid
or workman comes into my house, she'll bark her little head off. Can
anything be done?
