Chino about drove me insane this weekend when we came home and my mother-in-law was here. Everytime she talked he would go crazy.......after she left he stopped acting crazy. That was my bark collar
I would never put a bark collar on him, it does seem little mean if not cruel. Maybe you can spray him with water when he carries on in that manner. Heck me doing something like that with Chino seems little mean, so I haven't tried that either. I did put him in his crate as punishment after about 3 hours of crazy barking, took him back out and started back up when she spoke.
