i remember seeing a thread here months ago and also a similar thread in personal issues abouts dogs that wont stop barking. the threads are now a long time dead and buried so i start a new one.

saw this on buyandsell.ie

Friends of ours tryed this for ages, didn't make the slightest big of difference. For what it's worth positive re-enforcement works much better with dogs than the negative re-enforcement that this thing promotes.

i try'd it too total waste of money.

maybe a few obdience lessons would be more effective or if ya have the time positive re enforcement to try break the habit.

also wat age/breed is the dog

best of luck with it.

this type of thing really beats me up y do u people have dogs if u cant understand them try taking the time to see what the dog is trying to tell u and stop trying to inflict pain on them the people next door to me took great pride in telling me they where getting a coller that gave the dog a shock if he barked you people dont deserve to own dogs its cruel i wonder would any of you wear these devices i think not y dont u just spend some time with and on your pet and save your money and cop on

tonym stop being so dramatic

the op only enquired about the collar- peoples reasons (either genuine or not)
for using it is there business.

plus i think the first thing any person would do is try figure out why the dog is barking consistently :eek: :eek:

obviously if the reason isnt apparent one has to decide wat meaure to take to control the situation/issue. ie a vet/obdience training/ collar etc... this doesnt make someone love an animal any less.

be realistic like "oh we love our dog leave him bark all the time day & night" ya right its cruel for the dog more so as theres obviously a reason for it ie medical/ habit rtc..

out bursts like that are ***** and insulting towards the op who only made an enquiry

now me angry :mad: animal lover;)
