I too have a problem with barking. Poptart, maltese, is driving me crazy with his barking. It wouldn't really bother me if it weren't for the fact that his bark is so high pitched, it hurts my ears when he barks. I have tried everything and nothing has worked. I am going to get him a bark collar as soon as I can. He is only 6 pounds, but I would get the collar with citronella spray, I just couldn't ever put an electric shock collar on any dog, no matter what the size. They are suppose to be highly effective and they are safe and doesn't hurt them. I would go with that first, 8 pounds is still pretty small and atleast you know that you wouldn't be hurting him by using the collar with citronella spray. |
