Try using a spray bottle with water or water and vinegar or lemon juice and spray when the dog when he/she barks. You can also try using a shaker can. Take an empty pop can and put a couple pebbles or pennies in it and tape it closed. Then, when somebody barks, grab the can and shake it. The object is to startle the noisy one into being quiet. You can also then use small treats to reward the noisy one when they are quiet. If they are at all food motivated, they will catch on quickly. Use high value treats, and preferably soft so they are easy to chew. Things like bits of string cheese or turkey franks.
