I wish I knew... Ross is a barker too(20 months old)...he barks when people come and go, when the phone & doorbell ring, when I am in the kitchen. I totally understand your frusteration. We tried a citronella collar, didn't work. Ross couldn't set it off...dh or I could but he couldn't. We now...

I used to use a Haltie on Ross when we first got him (10 months old) Now we use a martingale collar and I give him a little tug if he pulls. Every once in a while I have to get the Haltie out though. Leanne.

Hi Cheyenne... My name is Ross and I am an oversized shelte. My mom and dad got me from a family when I was 10 months old. They said I was a good dog...ha ha...My mom and dad soon found out how much I love to bark, but they are trying really hard to get me to stop. I like to bark when they go...

I have a barker too... Ross barks at the phone, when I am preparing dinner, cooking dinner, opening a drawer in the kitchen...pretty much any time I am in the kitchen. We have done obedience classes and hired Bark Busters....he still barks. So unless we can totally control him, he goes in his...

where did you buy it from. I have searched our local Chapters store and they don't have it. I am in Canada. Tks. Leanne.

have any of you ever had any luck with them? We got one from a friend and put it on Ross and it won't go off. Not sure if it is the pitch of his bark or the length of his nose? He is an oversized sheltie so he has a long nose Husband and I can bark near it and it will go off!! I am really...

Just so you know... your not alone...I have a barker too. Ross barks at the phone, the doorbell and when I am making dinner...that is his worse time. I now keep him gated in the kitchen with me and he is much better. We got Ross at 10 months and I can't believe how awful his barking is....ugh...

Try some booties.. My Ross doesn't like the snowballs that form between his pads so we got him some awesome boots from Neopaws and he now prances around like a pony! Leanne.

Thanks.. yes he is quite a handsome boy. We have tried the penny can and it just seems to agitate him even more! LI

I have posted before but never introduced myself...We got Ross back in October when he was just about 10 months. He is an oversized Sheltie. We are doubtful if he is purebread as we got him from a home that said they had to get rid of him because of family issues. I think they got rid of him...

Yes we watch the dog whisperer all the time. I love that show. I try to follow what he does but I must not have his energy!! We will try the penny can again. Thanks.

We recently adopted Ross from a family who said they were getting seperated and had to get rid of him, I really think they got rid of him because of his behaviour. He will be 1 on Dec 25th. Ross barks at the phone and the timer on the oven, he also used to bark when I opened the oven door but he...
