Help For A Barking Dog  

hi, you may want to purchase an item that has a low frequency that is heard only by dogs. i forgot what its called but, it produces a sound that's only heard by dogs. and they dont bark when they hear that. although your neighbors may be weirded out since all the dogs in the neighborhood will stop barking when you turn on that device. just try to google it.

hope that helps.

I bought a collar for my dogs to quiet their barking habit. It's not a "shock" collar, but one that emits a very high-pitched sound whenever they barked. It only lasts for a split-second, but very effectively stopped their barking.

It did not appear to hurt their ears, either. They simply looked rather confused right after barking. It did work very effectively, I might add.

We lived in a townhouse condominium and right next door to the president of the association. They were sticklers for QUIET! I received a rather nasty email from them (no, they didn't have the nerve to talk to me in person about this, the sleezes) when my mother died. The email came on the day of my mother's funeral. I was her legal representative, so I was away quite a bit in the week leading up to her death then for three days afterward. That email couldn't have come at a worse time! My female Maltese had just had puppies 2 months earlier, so we had six dogs in all. I emailed them back with what had been going on that day and they couldn't have been humbler! I'm glad I made them feel bad!

Anyway, back to your issue. The collar I bought came from PetSmart. I'm sure they sell them in every pet store. They come in three sizes, too. It worked and didn't appear to harm the dogs any. Like I said, they just seemed confused when the collar went off, but worked very well at stopping their barking.
