Innotek No Bark Collar

[Nekhbet]

Innotek BC200 - works on a Malinois no worries and it does have levels. You can leave it to automatically adjust from level 1 as he keeps barking or start at a higher level.

I have been doing a bit of phoning around this morning and the static pulse collars are illegal in NSW, however, debarking isn't if it is done according to prescribed circumstances. More info on debarking here: http://www.vpb.nsw.gov.au/Boardtalk/2002/d...mber2002_10.htm

Puggles you may find that the poor Pug is responding to all the heartache and anguish in the household and a change of scenery may settle him down. My heart goes out to the family and to the dog.

Thanks jemappelle and good point about picking up the distress in the household. I had overlooked this.

Not sure if this will help or not but it helped me with a nighttime barker

I fostered a ShihTzu that would start howling every night around 12.30am and again around 4am

we tried everthing and were at the point of PTS when a friend who is a paediatric doctor asked if I would try something for her

She uses this with kids who wake up repeatedly through the night

The Shih Tzu woke up every night around 12.30am and barked, howled etc

I was made get up at 12am and take her for a walk, have a cuddle give her a treat and then go back to bed at 1am

At 3.30am I got up again and did the same thing

After one week of the above I went to walking her at 11.30 and 2.30, then after 7 days 10.30 and 1.30, 7 days 9.30 and 12.30

During the second week she went backwards so we had to start again

After 6 weeks she was cured

Mischa has been rehomed now 2.5 years and has never done it since
