For the past few weeks we have been working with our loud mouthed Dachshund to train her to be QUIET!! Whenever someone visits or walks by our house she goes off like a neighborhood firehouse whistle. Finally after debate, research, and soul searching we purchased the 'the collar'.
It was such a hard decision deciding to put a collar on our sweet little Abbey, but so far it has also turned out to be one of the best! She's learning very quickly that when the collar is on we don't bark. The first time she barked while wearing the collar she cried and then I cried hysterically. I wanted to take it off immediately and go back to the chaos of a very loud little dog! But... we've stuck with it and I'm very glad we did.
So I'm not writing this to be judged by others for our decision, it is our decision and we're committed to seeing this through. I never thought I'd be pro bark collar, but I'm a believer now!
