Lab X collie, 4 years old, always been a bit barky but the more I have tried to correct it the worse it has got, in other areas he has been reasonably easy to train, he's still quite bouncy and hyper. As soon as he hears the slightest sound outside he barks, if people come to the house he barks, if he gets excited ( waiting for dinner, waiting or me to chuck his ball ) he barks. People don't like coming to my house, the postman is petrified to knock the door and my neighbours are probably fed up with it too.
Someone recommended teaching him to bark on demand but that has not worked, he just gets too excited and won't stop.
I have ordered a correction collar ( not a electric shock collar before anyone jumps on me ), one that vibrates, I feel like I'm running out of options.
Has anyone ever cured this problem and how?
