Hi All
Im not sure if this is chat or training but Ive been recommended a beep / vibrate collar for Phoebe ( not a shock collar lets just make that clea r) its because when she sees a bird she can't control herself, she barks non stop, she shakes and we have tried all sorts some of you remember we've even put film over the patio doors so she cant see the birds but its not working now she bounces and barks.
Ive bought a beep / vibrate collar which has a remote so that when she barks I press it and the beep distracts her - Ive only had it this evening and although it was v expensive it seems to be working, no pain just distraction ( before even food, my voice and a whistle wouldn't do it and when I used to go to her to tell her to be quiet she would run off barking even more)
my question is does anyone else use them / have they worked for you and I am really conscious if someone sees it they will think it's a shock collar which is most def is not but it does look v similar - would this stop you using it? I dont want anyone to see her from a distance and think Im cruel
