One option you might come across is the "Ultrasonic Bark Collar," a collar the dog wears that often comes with a remote control for the human. When dog guardians hear barking (or, on some automatic models, whenever the collar detects barking), the collar releases a high-pitched sound inaudible to humans, but which supposedly annoys the dog enough to stop them from barking.
