My nearly 9 vs barking help

Post Body

Im in town since 2019. Our routine is.. inside night. Outside during day. Depending on weather etc. We also go to park etc. I have 3 dogs. Honey is my deaf one. Honey had trained me I think. Thinks she has and I don't have many other options.

It's sprinkling with rain? Scratch and bark at the door. Sun is setting? Scratch and bark She is bored and wants to come in? Same

Pretty much if she wants to come inside. It's barking and scratching non stop until you have to open the door. I try tell her no. And shut the foor. Trying to teach her no scratching doesnt let you in. But the moment the door is shut she starts again. Until you let her in. So there is no real time to let her in without her barking.

I will stress they have toys, multiple shelters etc. I can't do doggy doors as I have indoor only cats and they will sneak out with the dogs if I do that.

They usually are in if it's raining or to hot but sometimes I can't help it. Im out. I can't leave them home alone either. I'll come back to the house destroyed.

Im not out much but man they make me feel like Im the worst owner. She does. If I don't do something she wants straight away. She will drag it out. Barking non stop. And she knows she shouldn't. You go out to tell her off. Usually point at her and go no. She is deaf but she can see my mouth move. She runs away knowing she isn't supposed to fyi it. You shut that door and back. The little turd will look at you through the Window and bark.

Ive tried to many tactics trainers have recommended but I'm at the point where them and vets are suggesting one of the anti barking collars. The citrus ones. Not electric!

If this barking goes on. My neighbours in sure won't be liking me. I need to get in top of it. The other two dogs bark but you tell them to stop and they do. You can't with honey.

My issue is. Im very very nervous and upset ive had to get to the point of using one of these collars. I know it won't hurt but it still is spraying something she won't like at her amd in really upset.

May I ask for experiences with them? How long did it take to help? Are they permanent or they learn and you can remove it?
