New dogs next door - My dog is freaking out

If the barking continues, despite your best efforts, you could try a citronella collar. I have never personally used one but I know several people who have with great results.

I like the citronella collars. It doesn't hurt but it's unpleasant enough that even the threat of "the collar" is enough to quiet my dogs down. Though I think half the "punishment" of the collar is having to wear it. Bark collars are a bit on the heavy side and I'm sure they don't appreciate having a heavy box at their throat. Then again, like I said, the mere sight of it is enough to get my dogs to cool it.
