Barking Dogs - ???

[jessb]

I did exactly the same, i got my Bluey (R.I.P) a shock collar because she was a constant barker, it was the best thing i ever got. She was quite almost straight away. Theyre great!

LOL I thought you were joking and you meant you had used it for your blue tongue!!!

I knew someone who got a shock collar, and all it did was cause the dog to bark when it was shocked.. It had different levels on it, and none worked.. It would bark, get the shock, and react with another, more agitated bark,

Unfortunatly it dosnt work for everyone.. not sure if they still have the dog..

Debarking a dog sounds a bit like voiding a snake, where are the moral police?

was too scared to go over there still last night - but i rang my landlord who also looks after the place next door and she said she'll have a word to them hahaha
i dont care what noise they make during the day, its natural for dogs to bark - i have a small dog myself but i taught it from a pup not to bark (i wasn't allowed dogs at the house i originally lived at when we got her)
She lives with my mum now though and still doesn't really bark.. nothin really phases her.

dogs didn't really bark much last night tho which was good

...instead my stupid little beeeeeeeeep of a kitten kept me up all night by biting my hand, knee, face, foot, whatever it could find sticking outta the blanket (when i got outta bed, had a shower and came back into the room, he was curled up asleep against my boyfriends back) grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

THe problem with confronting them and asking them to sort out the barking - if nothing happens and you have to go to council then they will DEFINITELY know it is you! Are there any other neighbours nearby? If you just report them straight to council then you could probably hope that they won't know for sure it is you!

hahaha thats it, down here i think there has to be 3 complaints about the same prob before council HAS to do something. If the dogs are noisy then im sure your not the only one annoyed so speak to other neighbours in the street

 

[Danni]

i think different states have diff rules because the council has to prove its your dog or someone elses dog to suggest it be put down.
The council here (onkarparinga) wont do anything unless a diary has been kept .... they send out some paper work and you use their materials.

Then if it can be proven that the dog in question is causing disturbance then they suggest a certain collar, etc.

Do a stunt?

Found this when I was searching for collars once. Sounds good. This company is the cheapest I could find in Australia. I haven't tried these but it may be worth a try. There is a cheaper one on their site if you have a waterproof area to put it.
