Yes, but I think the trick with coins in a can is to only use it for one behavior issue (in this case barking) and not to overuse it. In our case I use it only when she's going nuts yelling (barking) at the huge dogs on the other side of the fence. Now, when she starts to head over to that part of the fence, she looks at me, if I'm anywhere NEAR the can, she turns around and finds something else to do.
A friend has a bichon, and it worked so well on his barking, she started using it too much, now he doesn't even notice.
How's Charlie today???? |
