Does anyone have any experience with no bark collars? I have a 7 mo
old lab x pup. We take him with us to work most mornings (and have
been doing so for 5 months). After a long pre-work walk, he usually
settles down. However lately he has become an unruly toddler and
expresses his displeasure at not "running free" with a high pitched,
ear-piercing bark. I'd like to give a no bark collar a try. I'd
appreciated hearing your experiences. Thanks.

Our lab is now 14 months old and as gotten over all the chewing and barking.
We found that she responds to being shunned for attention or time out. When
she was doing the biting thing as a puppy with that mouth full of little
needles we just said a sharp and loud no, then turned away from her and paid
her no attention for a few minutes. If she did it a second time within a
couple of minutes she got 5 or 10 minutes alone out on the deck or locked in
the bathroom.
With the barking we just yelled no and then locked her on the deck so she
didnt have the run of the yard. Eventually she connected barking with
confinement and doesn't do it anymore unless someone approaches the property
which is excellent. Oh there's one cat in the area that she goes mental at
when it turns up and she probably wants to kill it for the same reason I do,
it wakes everyone up at 2am fighting with other cats. Irresponsible pet
owners are so annoying.

They work great on bitchy women.

More background, please.

Is the collar intended for when you don't take him to work? If
it's for at work, why can't you intervene directly? How is he
contained at work and at home?

I still find the subject interesting. And I like to watch the group eat its
own, and the infighting. Like the 800# gorilla and Alisha. I do still have
other dogs. When a rescue foundation declines taking the dog, it's pretty
much a done deal.

Have your husband check Cabela's for shock collars. They MAY have one to
fit you. If not, just visit your favorite local sex shop. You know where
it is.
