How to keep a dog from barking all night?

Any ideas? We aren't getting any sleep!!
Answers:
Leave a dish with peanut butter next to the dog. Hide the water until morning.
Try a self correcting bark collar @ cabelas.com.
Sounds mean but you may have to take a strap to him 10- 12 times untill he gets the idea or get rid of him a dog should bark when neccessary.
buy him a muzzle they sell one that they can still drink water with it on . after a few weeks depending on how hard headed he is he will not bark all night or any at all cause he knows youre gonna muzzle him . this worked for my neabors dog . i was gonna take him to court .
You haven't said if its your dog or a neighbor's? If yours, keep the dog in the house for the night. If the neighbor's, go and speak to them about the problem - perhaps they sleep so well they don't hear the dog barking. If they are willing to cooperate and keep the dog in at night, problem solved. If not, call your animal control officer and make a complaint. (Keep in mind that if the dog is yours, your neighbors might be about to do the same thing..)
try giving it a toy at night. Something to keep him busy or maybe keep him in ur room but oblige him to sleep on the floor for hygienic reasons and for domination reasons. But i suggest u keep him busy with some toys
spay it with water
DUCK TAPE!
first try to figure out WHY the dog is crying. then u will be ablle to correct the problem. it may be scared of the dark or does not have a bed or like being locked up in a room all night. maybe it is sick?
Rather than "strapping" your dog as someone suggested.. o_O That's just mean, or using shock collars, there is another kind you could use. There are these collars that you can get that whenever the dog barks it releases and small spray of citronella, the dog can't stand the smell of it so they learn not to bark or else they have to smell that. That's the route i would go. If it persisted, i might consider getting rid of the dog since that can cause a lot of neighborly problems as well.
it sounds mean, but the bark collars with a remote control that has a dial that controls the power of shock and it also has a high pitch warning that can be used if you train the dog with it correctly in the beginning.It works! they cost approx. 100$
kick its Bollo+ks up in the air!!
I keep a nightlight on for my puppy, a radio on quiet mellow music, and I put a sheet over her kennel. Don't here a peep out of her.
Well when my dog was a puppy he used to like to bark too. But you have to show the dog that your the boss. When he starts to bark punish him, and if that doesn't work get him a shock collar. It sounds mean but thats how they learn.
If it is your dog the only way to stop them by peaceful means is to sleep in the same room. Make them sleep on the floor, they will learn where to sleep if there is a bed set up for them in that room. If it is your neighbor's dog try talking to them, usually the problem is the owner not the dog. If that does not work keep calling the police after quiet hours start until they come and address the issue.
