Vibrate / beep collar

If I was you I would give a cue "quiet" or something, beep it, then when she is quiet drop a massive jackpot of treats at your feet. I would also give the "quiet" cue at random moments when she isn't barking etc and drop a massive handful of treats at your feet. Hopefully you will be able to faze the beep out quite quickly then. There is a danger I feel of not using the device as a training aid and just using it as some sort of remote control - in which case I think she will very, very quickly learn that the beep can be ignored and that barking at birds is still fun. At which point you may feel you need to crank up the beeping/vibrating and it will all esculate - whereas with a bit of training effort you could possibly get her responding to a quiet cue without using the collar at all fairly quickly.
