Nuisance barking is certainly an issue plaguing many Dachshund owners. If the problem only seems to be present around strangers and guests, you might consider trying something like a citronella collar for these occasions. This is a collar that responds to the barking noise by spraying out a small amount of liquid that smells unpleasant to your dog. It is completely harmless - just annoying. I have seen it be extremely successful with Dachshunds in particular. They are available on many different website and retailers including places like Amazon. I would training Ceasar with the collar while your guests are not there at first just so he understands what the collar actually signifies. With any hope, eventually the mere sight of the collar will result in him ceasing the nuisance barking. Hope this helps.
