bark collars for little sh!t dogs

[barronj]

I have a little yorkie that, short of getting a surgery or going down for the dirt nap, needs a yip/yap/bark collar stat.

Who has used one on a small dog? Any recommendations?

S&W500 worked pretty well.

I have used one on two medium dogs; a blue healer and a mutt. It worked great on the mutt, but the healer didn't give a shit and just kept barking and yelping endlessly.

If you wanted a little dog that didn't bark, why didn't you just get a cat?

How old is the yorkie? Have you tried to work with the dog to curb the barking? If so what method did you use when it would bark?

everytime he barks stick your finger up his butt

Because cats suck.

Cats are 10x cooler than Yorkies. It's either a big dog or nothing. But cats can be cool...

Because cats suck.

Stupid little dogs suck. Real dogs can be cool. Cats can be cool. Fat chicks can be cool. Little dogs suck.

My cat would maim a yappy small dog. Both of my wife's poodles are terrified of him. It's pleasing to watch the 3 of them interact now that he dominates them.

That's the funniest thing I have read in a week!

We have a Lab & a cool Russian Blue. I don't know why we have this little bastard, but his name is Tucker, and he's damned cute. Balls & all.

We're taking him with us to Lake City CO for a month, and I want this guy silent.

We have guest dogs over all the time, and dogs that would otherwise chase & kill cats get the thousand yard stare from Jack Noodles (our cat, named by my girls, 4 & 6). He doesn't even flinch, it's pretty funny to watch.

Most small dogs are stupid, so sometimes training doesn't work. But you should probably give it a shot anyway to see if you can make some progress.

I have heard these work:

But in my experience, thing like these do not. We had one of these and our dog couldn't give two shits about the noise it made:

Edit: Also, a Russian Blue or a Devon Rex are pretty much the only two breeds of cat I would ever consider. Look at this BAMF:

My MIL has a yorkie, that dog is retarded, literally. I don't know how well they can be trained.

I put a regular shock collar on him once, set all the way down (setting 1 out of 8). I thought he was going to die when I lit him up. Shaking, screaming, slobbering.
