Barking cure... - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I just ordered on Amazon for less than the Petco site. I can't wait to try it on my excessive barker. Thanks for the information.

I'm gonna give it a try on my non-yorkie dogs. They bark at the wind!!!
Hannah (Yorkie) only barks to get out of her kennel. Very proud of her as she is starting to understand that I will not leave her in it for long. Right now she looks at her barking buddies like they are crazy (love the little curious look she gives each one of them). Waiting for them to rub off on her as I'm sure they will. It gets really loud at my house!!!!!

I really, really am ecstatic with the results here. I can't wait for you all to post!
It's very windy here today...shaking the storm doors and whistling. I have heard two small grumble/ growls. Truly incredible!

I already had my husband run out to get one. In Canada they are sold at Canadian Tire for 10.99

Monty hasn't made a peep since we bought it so haven't had to try it yet. Is it wrong for me to be anticipating his first barking rampage to see if it really will work for us???

The spray startles him but doesn't harm him.

There was another member here who used a collar on her one dog, and the little smarty pants figured out how to make it spray his innocent doggy sibling.

HAHA! I had those wind barkers in my day! Leaves moving in the yard would get 10 mins of barking!

Mine just started barking at noises outside when it's dark out. So far, closing the front door stops her from barking, but when summer Really sets in, and the door has to be open I'll have to try this! Thanks for letting us know!!!!

This sounds really great! I may pick some up. We don't have terrible barking except when someone comes to the door. Sounds like it's time to experiment! LOL

My barker stopped barking when we got a new puppy. It's a little more expensive than Pet Corrector. But hey...it worked!

Galen barks when I first come dowm in the morning. He hears my footsteps. I can not even go to the bathroom before I go in the kitchen. He does not do it to my DBF. Just me. Or when go outside to grab something. Bark bark bark.

LOL smart little one

Montysmom2 · 06-18-2013, 08:18 AM

I did not want to appear too optimistic with this recommendation but did go out immediately and purchased a can of Pet Corrector. That was last Thursday and after this amount of time, I just have to say...IT IS FREAKING INCREDIBLE!!! The reaction to the noise was immediate, one short blast and the barking ceased immediately, Monty no longer goes crazy barking at every sound like he did less than a week ago, we can now mimic the noise of the compressed air if the can is not readily available and he reacts to that as well!! I am so impressed with the results!! We had a yard party on the weekend with about 30 people present at any given time and not a sound out of Monty even as people entered the yard. Tons of comments that he is not even like the same dog at all in more ways than just the barking.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!

AlwaysTexas · 06-18-2013, 08:20 AM

This is so encouraging! I ordered a can last week from Amazon and it is being delivered today. This makes me hopeful for a peaceful evening.

Teegy · 06-18-2013, 09:25 AM

thanks for the advice, my little guy is a barker and even when I tell him no, he sits and makes intermittent little semi barks like a naughty child

WidsMom · 06-18-2013, 10:13 AM

I am so happy it's working so well for you too! Mine are absolutely different dogs. NO frenzied barking! I may get one or two barks if someone knocks, but as soon as I make the "pssst" sound all is quiet! And I reward them then, so now I find I am getting much more eye contact and attentiveness in whatever the circumstance. It's wonderful!!
