Citronella Anti-Bark Collar ? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

yougetthesmiles · 02-18-2008, 01:28 PM

I'm looking for one for Baby who is about 6lbs. She has such a piercing bark and it's very annoying!

Has anyone ever used one of these before? How did it work for you?

I priced them today at 2 different pet stores and was very shocked on how expensive they were!

I just sold ours a few weeks ago (for $25)....it worked well.

I know that PetEdge has them too, I think they are about $60 or $70 though.

You know, we did the pennies in a can trick and boy...that has really helped w/ LilyGrace!!! I was amazed!!!!

Please send your pennies trick to this page....

I think it is already on there...it is a great tip/trick...works very well!
We tried the water bottle to spray them, but that didn't work...the can does!

I have tried the pennies and the bottle... they dont work on mine

but they are too small for the collar

Jenn218 · 02-18-2008, 02:44 PM

The pennies should be in a can...that makes it loud and clangy!
We tried a water bottle and it didnt' have the same effect.

What size do you have?

LilyGrace is 4.5lbs and it was fine for her.
The collar that was on the one we had was adjustable.....and you can even take the "mister" off and put it on any other collar you need. (say bigger or smaller)...we did that with Rusty too! --put the "mister" on his larger collar.

I had one for my German Sheperd, it just made him smell like citranella! Pennies in a can works for me!!

Ahhh...that is how it worked on our lab too! It worked on him smelling good!

On LilyGrace (being smaller)...it worked..it scared her.

BUT we really like the pennies in a can!

Whoever "invented" that....brillant!

I agree!!

I rather use the pennies & can. I am so anti bark collars for all dogs. I think it's cruel

My girls are 4lbs... when I looked on the website it said for dogs at least 6lbs, thats why i assumed i couldnt use it

I will have to look into getting one

you prefer the pennies though???

The Citronella is 100% natural, it will not hurt them. Now the shock collars on the other hand I think are cruel.

I have tried several things with Baby, this is my last result at trying to get some peace and quiet! She can't even play without barking so loudly!

Jenn218 · 02-19-2008, 05:42 AM

I read somewhere that there is a new product...like a room difuser..that will keep them quiet....it lets of Pheromones or something like that. I think it was called DPA and it was on amazon.com.... I will have to look though...I can't remember all the details.

Jenn218 · 02-19-2008, 05:48 AM

You can google DPA dog bark room diffuser and come up with a lot of sites for it!
