My dad got shock collar for his hunting dog and he worked. Out bird hunting the dogs can run out to get the birds but see more and run after them and when they get far out you got to yell or give them a zap and they know it's time to stop and come back. They learn just having it on them after a short time so you may not even have to use it because once they know it shocks they will be good.

Do you expect anyone to approach a house with TWO pit-bulls ??
IF I had a neighbor with dogs like that, and a constant barking dog, I would not warn you per phone or come to your door, sorry, I think the problem is on your end.

Well, not really, it's just the beagle that barks.

The smallest dogs always make ruckus ,my 2 pitbulls don't make a peep unless something big is in the back yard and it's not even a bark ,more like a rough growl.

I would be careful about taking that complainer to court-matter of fact if you even start a rumor threatening to he is justified to get a lawyers advise and charge you for the cost. I would be amazed if a judge wouldn't award him his costs plus a substancial amount for his inconvenience. Get the damned dog to shut up-lots of advise on here about how to do it.

I think it's a shame that someday that poor Beagle may have to pay the price ...
Because his owner didn't care to train him and was inconsiderate of his neighbors.

I am not sure how you train a dog not to bark.

I am not joking. I have one dog that barks but not incessantly. But if you come knock on the door it will bark at least a couple times.

As far as shock collars maybe I never learned how to adjust one I tried on the other dog. The dog either did not respond or jumped up in the air like it was stabbed so I returned the collar. I was trying to get it to go for walks better and not want to let its nose determine what we were doing. Not trying to stop it from barking I admit.

well thought out response!

I feel exactly the same way, its not the dogs fault, that the owner dosent give a rats patootie for his neighbors peace and quiet, and insists on defending his contributation to noise the pollution of everyone around him.

I have a neighbor exactly the same way, his/their dogs have never been trained either. They are small, yapping, and never stop. When the neighbors are gone( most all day) the 3 dogs are left out in all kinds of weather, and are terrified of even the sound of the wind blowing, so there is never any peace and quiet around here.

I dont blame the dogs. I blame the stupid neighbor, since HE's THE ONE RESPONSIBLE!!

I think I'll close this one now. I don't see this going anywhere but farther downhill. I think we've all spoken our piece.

Closed.
