Finally Something That Worked for Our Barking Problem
We have a 3-year-old Cockapoo called Bailey who would bark at absolutely everything – people walking past the window, delivery drivers, other dogs, even leaves blowing in the garden. We tried training classes, treats and various advice we found online, but nothing seemed to make a lasting difference.
After doing some research, I came across Calmshops and decided to try their citronella spray collar. I was a bit nervous at first because I didn’t want anything that would hurt or scare my dog, but I liked that it was a humane, no-shock option.
The difference was noticeable within the first few days. Bailey quickly learned that excessive barking wasn’t necessary and became much calmer around common triggers. What impressed me most was that his personality didn’t change at all – he is still happy, playful and affectionate, just much less reactive.
The collar was easy to set up, the instructions were clear, and delivery was fast. I also contacted customer support with a question about the settings and received a helpful response very quickly.
It’s not a magic fix and we still continued with positive reinforcement training, but the collar made the training process much easier and less stressful for everyone in the house.
If you’re struggling with excessive barking and are looking for a humane alternative to shock collars, I would definitely recommend Calmshops. Very happy customer and, more importantly, a much calmer dog!
