How to stop my dog barking at people but allow guard barking at night?

Question

Is there a device to stop my dog's barking when she sees passersby with dogs? (she does it constantly) but I would still like for her to bark as a guardian dog, especially at night. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | spayed | 16 lbs

This is going to be difficult. You can't really train a dog to only to bark at night. I suggest professional training but if you want a "quick fix" you can try a citronella bark collar and only put it on her during the day and take it off at night. She will soon learn that she shouldn't bark when the collar is on her. ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXwstVpzALY )
