Barking for attention???....

Hi everyone.....Can anyone help me with this. My 4 y/o Sheepie Max has a problem with barking. Any time Max doesn't have the attention while my boyfriend and I are talking/watchin TV OR if we have friends over and are chatting, Max will bark until we stop talking and put the attention on him. I have tried ignoring him and turning my back but it doesn't work. He doesn't bark when are not home or when he is outside and see/hears other dogs barking. Only when I start talking to someone or a group people are talking he will get all excited and bark. He eventually calms down but if we start up in depth convo he will bark like crazy. I have notice that the louder the conversation the more excited he gets.......

Thanks-
Nikki
