My last five posts have been on barking because i get questions on it more then anything else. That is why I started this blog with that subject. I wanted to ad this final opinion on the subject!
As a side note, I think e-collars have their place-but it should be a last resort and you should get a professional opinion (or two) on your dogs particular case before you even consider using one. They are often mis-used and unnecessary, leading to more problems or masking the problem instead of fixing the behavioral issue. I do believe they can be useful and have used them myself, but rarely are they necessary and should only be used for a short period of time before the dog understands its purpose.
Remember-most dogs just need more stimulation physically and mentally. Exercise is most important-only then can the discipline you set be useful and understood. After that you give them all the love you can because they deserve it!!!
