I will say that before you use a "shock" collar you might want to try a collar that vibrates and some spray citronella which dogs don't like.
I normally let him do his thing, and if he alerts me to someone at the door I reward him with lots of love, but if I really need him to be quiet I only have to put the collar on and he stops. No bark, no shock, no nothing. At this rate the battery will probably last forever, and I may take the battery out and see what happens. |
http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/off...-shocking.html Please do not use a shock collar on a yorkie. On the link to the thread I included, I did a comparison between the joules (measurement of "electrical current emitted") of a tazer and the joules of a shock collar advertized for small dogs online. Please read that info before purchasing a shock collar for these small dogs.
