Fixated on the ceiling lights!

Eddee has been barking his fool head off at the ceiling light fixtures ... and the lights are not even turned on! I have tried giving him treats when he looks at them and does not bark. I have tried to find his threshold ... but it seems it is not working.

I have left the room with him thinking he would forget .... not so ... soon as I go back into the room ... he starts his growling and barking.

I even got up and touched the light fixture and pretended the treats came out of the light!!! This is our bedroom ... we sleep in here at night.

Any suggestions? This just started this morning.............

Um, I don't mean to alarm you, but is there something up there? Maybe above the fixture? Muggsy kept barking at "random" for 6 months last year. I kept telling him to be quiet, silly dog.

Yeah, turned out we had a whole colony of bats in our attic, walls, basement drop ceiling.

Once my parents' Wirehaired Pointing Griffon kept barking incessantly at the fireplace/chimney for a period of weeks...it turned out there was a raccoon living in there. A big fat one. Yikes!

Abbylynn, might be worth checking out up there. But if not, taking the fixture out and putting it on the floor for Eddee to sniff around so he can get brave would not be a bad idea.
