You can also try meetup.com, perhaps they have a small dog meetup in your area.
My 2 cents about the bark collar: If you feel like you may need to go in this route, talk to your vet before hand and do your research. People have strong opinions on this but imo if used properly it can be effective. | Have you talked to the guys at Sit Happens in Calgary? They used to have a group come in once a month I think with small dogs for a play time, Maybe worth your while to give Tammy a call and ask if since the move if they still have it. Tammy also has a great and I mean sticking amazing socialization class for puppies or did.
Just a thought.
