For problem dogs of mine where I'm not around to directly supervise, a no-bark collar works the best of all solutions. I'll hang it on the dog and after a couple of hours they figure it out, and seem to get the message that random barking doesn't fly around here. It's a lot quieter since I started doing that. <br /><br />I lent one of my collars for the neighbors dog and I'm enjoying the quiet right now. <br /> Bruce Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995706761794063165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-8786938185789460042016-03-26T16:56:32.081-07:002016-03-26T16:56:32.081-07:00saundra: thanks for the kind words. saundra: thanks for the kind words.

They bark constantly at us while we are waiting. My 4 year-old son started running back and forth along the fenceline to get them to follow hime. That annoyed the owner because the dogs barked while he did that and they were "trying to train them not to bark." I had to try really, really hard not to respond sarcastically.

It's impressive how clean and organized your farm is. Yes, I'm the one interested in one of your pups. I will call next week. Have a lovely & blessings filled Easter Day.<br /> Sincerely, Saundra LomanSaundrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00022337477187448272noreply@blogger.com
