Something must be done now, by any means necessary.

There's gotta be some law against pet neglect in Australia.
I know, I sure don't want Ali's head to explode.

But the neighbor just got the letter, so maybe she'll calm down in a day or two, and agree to do right by that dog and Ali's sanity...hopefully...!

The neighbor just got a new dog (for a total of 4), and this moved to the top of my Xmas wish list:

My brother had something like that for one of his cattle dogs that used to bark a lot. It was pretty effective although sometimes if she was really worked up, she'd ignore the small current, but that was when the remote control came in handy (if they were home). In those instances, my brother could give her an extra zap to make her pipe down.

I don't think they're really meant for long term and that proved to be the case with Maloo. she hardly barks at all anymore unless there's someone too close to the fence which is really what you want a watch dog for anyway.

Ali - Was that a collar device? This one produces a sound that the dogs find annoying, and works from a distance.

What ever happened with your situation from the original post?

It was a collar with a zapper.

I don't know much about the noise ones. Sorry I didn't read the article properly.

We moved. lol Best thing we ever did too.

Yeah, I was gonna ask if poisoning is definitely out of the question.

Maybe the dog could spend the days with you and you could pick up some extra dosh as a dog sitter.
