Dog Bark

Dog Bark
Dog Bark???

My dog won’t stop barking I was in the kitchen with her for at least 2 hours she is outside most of the day and she loves running around. We have to keep her in hte kitchen or the back hall for now because we have someone who lives with us who has alhimers ( something like that) and they like the dog but we can’t have her running around the whole house. She loves being by people but I can’t be by her 24-7
And don’t say if I can’t take care of my dog give her away but I take real good care of her
Also we have a bark collar on her but could it be broken it beeps like randomly
she doesn’t have to go to the bathroom we let her out like 5 times for like 30 mins

Oh yes, the perfectly successful never-fail bark collar…has failed. Again, I might add.

I’m going to repost an answer here. I’ll be right back.

EDIT: Okay, here you are. This was a response to a lady trying to train her two poodles not to bark in her apartment, but the same still applies.

Good luck!

POST:
Bark collars do not work. The dog will simply outsmart the bark collar and bark when it isn’t on (and will become more frustrated and aggressive when it is on).

Consider giving both of your dogs a hardcore exercise before you leave everyday. A tired dog is a good dog and chances are the pooches will sleep until you get back.

Smaller dogs tend to be yappier (most just like to hear themselves “talk”). But they could also be trying to get attention this way. When they are barking, don’t talk to them. Ignore them until they stop, then go to them and reward them for being quiet. Even yelling at them while they are barking gives them attention.

Good luck! And thank you for refusing to give up your dogs! I love seeing a good owner on here =]

EDIT: Bark collars may have a few good stories, but this is not always the case. As a Humane Society volunteer (and dog trainer for the CT Humane Society) I see massive numbers of people complaining that their bark collar didn’t work, so they need to turn the dog in.

Remember, when you use a bark collar you are punishing a dog for trying to communicate with you. A more sensitive dog will not be happy about this and will most likely shut down emotionally. Some dogs may figure out that the collar zaps them when they bark because they shouldn’t be barking, but this isn’t always the case. More aggressive dogs may lean toward human or collar-based aggression because of this issue.

Save your money. Don’t buy a bark collar. They are cruel and limiting.

And NEVER spray your dog in the face with ANYTHING. It can cause serious health issues and your dog will be VERY frustrated with you
