pandemonium, barking

Subject: pandemonium, barking Fri Apr 06, 2012 3:25 pm

As you know I have 7 dogs, they all get on great together and in the evening when all is quieter they are settled and fine, but......

during the day, every car door, ever knock on the door, when they are going out, when anyone comes in, when the postie comes, it is absolute pandemonium, they all bark together, take ages to stop and in all honesty I am at the end of my tether, Ste works pemanent nights and is always being woke, the neighbours have complained , and I dont blame them.

the barking does stop, it is not continuos, ie like a dog barking constantly when left outside, but when it starts its intolerable

I am at a totall loss and am on the way to a nervous breakdown

I love them all dearly but i am just sooooo fed up.

circumstances, ie when my mum died, has given me two more dogs, so I cant part with them, nor do I want too, I just wish I could control the barking and they would stop when I asked, it would be easy if there were one or two, but 7 is a different ball game.

please guys if you can suggest anything and help me from being dragged off to the funny farm pandemonium, barking 165548

Try a bark stop Hun, you plug it in and when the dogs bark it emits a horrible sound that only they can hear and it's supposed to stop them pandemonium, barking 910222

Cant help hun sorry, Ellie is a barker but thankfully its not loud, Misty barks but shuts it when you tell her to, Hazel is the most annoying coz its high pitched waffle, and Bryn only barks at people HE KNOWS pandemonium, barking 575435

I did see on one tv show where they had lots of dogs barking a lot that they had some sort of fog horn type thing and a rape alarm, when the dogs started they set one off and it soon shut them up, not sure if they would do my head in more than the barking though

OMG i can just imagine what 7 dogs barking at the same time sounds like pandemonium, barking 170113

It drives me mad when my two bark pandemonium, barking 170113

I would try a bark stop aswell pandemonium, barking 910222

It initially worked but Keira is such a gobby madam she soon ignored it pandemonium, barking 575435

you never know it may deter your dogs even if it only worked on a few it would be an improvement for you
I havent got mine any more or i would of sent it to you pandemonium, barking 165548

The whistle and treats sounds like a good idea aswell
