The reason I was looking into it for Ellie is because the reps in this area come very highly recommended by Ellie's vet office. A couple of the vets in there have used them. I decided not to go with them for now because they are so expensive and because I won't stop letting Ellie on the furniture. I would not hesitate if I had a big, out-of-control dog. Anyway, here are some of the answers I got when I called them.
Do you have to keep dog off furniture? Yes, for five weeks and then you can invite them up when YOU want them there.
How much is it? It would have been $495 for us because Ellie is 6 and they figure they would have to come back less than if she was a puppy.
Do you use any shock collars? No, nothing of the sort. |
Thanks. I did a YT search on Barkbusters but didn't run across your thread. I'll look again to see if I can find that one too.
