Chiwogabull* Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I am after some information about experiences with anti bark collars.. citronella or sonic NOT "shock" collars for small dogs. Background I have a lovely little 5 yr old male desexed Chi. He is a problimatic barker, upside he barks at people not just randomly, I'm looking at moving into a more suburban area and want to have this sorted before we get complaints from the neighbours. He is crate trained, lives inside but when he is outside he barks territorially at people and we have a busy showroom beside us so he does it constantly!!. He does not need to see people but if he hears footsteps, talking ect it starts. I have tried distractions, repromands. I do not want him to teach my other dog the same "tricks". Has anyone used collars on such a small breed? How effecive was it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persephone Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) I would recommend you first consult a behaviourist That way, you know EXACTLY why your dog barks ...and get taught strategies to both manage and to educate your dog to lessen the barking . having a professional (Not a franchise with a catchy name ) alongside you will be invaluable . Perhaps start with contacting K9pro ?You might also want to read THIS? Edited July 1, 2011 by persephone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
