At first I appreciated it and thought it was funny (my little tattle-tale!) because she usually did this when my cat was on the kitchen counter or somewhere else he didn't belong, but it quickly got out of hand! I tried a firm "no bark", tried ignoring her whenever would excessively bark, tried a water bottle and nothing would work. Last night I was fed up and put some coins in an empty soup can and finally... silence! She HATES the noise! I had to use it a few times, and she got really scared and ran into my lap each time, and actually calmed down!
So, anyone having a problem with excessive barking for whatever reason- try this- it is a lifesaver!! |
I need to keep one of those handy. Mollie has started barking almost non stop some mornings after my husband leaves for work. Other dogs in the neighborhood are barking I guess where everyone is starting their day. I knew about this but, I would not have thought about it.
Thanks again.
