The air doesn't reach them to ruffle their hair? I have some that would startle real good at that. They don't like to be blown at. It really freaks them. I thot that if the air duster ruffled their hair, it might be my next step.
Oh, by the way, I did try using the air horn thing. It works except my scaredy cats got really freaked out by that too. I didn't buy a second air horn cause I was afraid it might bother my neighbors. I think they live at least a quarter of a mile from us and they are higher on their hill than we are but I was worried that when the dogs bark outside at night that I might disturb them with the air horn.

I guess I am very lucky that Suzi is not a Barker... She is very good. Many toy breeds are know to be yappy. It takes a lot of patience and consistency to curb them of this habit.  |
