I do not believe in debarking and most vets do not do it because it is considered in humane. Nor do I believe in the shock collars. Not real happy about he citronella ones either but it is the lesser of the 3 evils. Have you tried the citronella collar? if that did not work I would tend to go for the shock one? Last resort would be the debarking for me.

How about trying the recording, look for a voice activated playing device, then move to the collars....IMHO
I would NEVER use a shock collar!!! Debarking can be done in a very humane way if that is the last resort. I do like the idea of a voice recorder. But if that doesn't work and nothing else works I would debark and by that would be one vocal cord not two because it softens the voice and they can still bark but softer. And rehoming in this case would NEVER be an option.
