I need to purchase a good bark collar that will shock to control undesirible barking when I cant use my garmin shock collar manually (AKA at night when im asleep). Anyone have recommendations?
Backstory:
I have a unnuttered male lab he is a great dog, is super friendly, great hunting drive, skinny, doesnt hump people, doesnt fight other dogs. He does occasionally try to hump other dogs (I stop it right away and scold him and if the other dog growls he gets off and leaves them alone...this doesnt happen often), and likes to mark his territory. I can put up with those negative of being unnuttered. However he likes to bark at really strange times. Hes a talkative dog and will do funny things like when he is laying on the ground he will raise his head look at me and bark once while wagging his tail at me and then lay his head back on the ground like he was just saying hello. He doesnt do it often so that doesnt bother me. He wont bark at poeple walking by the house either. But if we go on car rides he will stick his head out wagging his tail and just bark non-stop at nothing but the open air. I mention this because I dont think getting him nuttered will stop this barking, he almost seems to just enjoy barking to bark. You wouldnt ever notice it until we go on car ride or hunting trips at night now.
During my last quail hunting trip I kenneled him and our other dogs in the insulated dog trailer (that he has stayed in before with no barking problems but I will mention it was in a quiet airB&B in the middle of nowhere). This time around we stayed at a motel parked my trailer in a noiser place and he would have barking fits throughout the night to the point I made him sleep inside so the other residents wouldnt be disturbed (and that was after a long hard day of hunting him). The other dogs were seperated in other apartments of the trailer and were silent. So now im looking for a bark collar that will automatically shock him without me having to. On top of that I am gonna do some more training with him being alone in busy, loud places at night.
