I've tried various things i.e. leaving a worn tshirt of mine next to her bed when I leave, giving her a small meal before I leave to see if she will sleep and I have even tried an ultrasonic collar, which is supposed to omit an ultrasonic squeal when she barks, but how can I tell if it's working if I can't hear it?????............Last night I left her for about 1.5 hours and when I got home, my neighbour cornered me on the stairs to complain about the noise. When I got indoors, Cassie had wee'd at the door.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what action I can take???
Ive just posted on another thread ANTI BARK -COLLARS a friend of mine has a border collie that barks when left had a letter from the council via a neighbour, to stop her barking, he has used a citronella bark collar and he is amazed it has stopped her within a few days the scent in the bottle shows if the dog has been barking when he first used it got home and quite a bit had been used the next day even less and by the 6th day none had been used so he knew she hadnt barked. Think it cost about £4O

Re: Barking/Howling when alone

my dog is a year old and he is left most days on his own as i work 5 days a week. he seems to behave well or so i thought until recently my neighbour told me that shes heard him barking/crying!!
it really worries me that hes unhappy but he shows no sign unhappyness when im home. but what worries me more is that if other neighbours, postman etc hear him and it get reported or something!!
hes always got plenty of toys, food, water and bed. no idea what else to do!!!
ive had my new job for two months before then i was home most days, is it just taking him a while to get used to it??

any help please!!!!!! thanks!!
