How does a dog shock collar work? because my husband says we have to get one for both our dogs. I was sad to hear this but the problems is that my dogs bark all night at anything they hear. In particular ambulances, and other dogs walking by. During the day the problem is even worste- Can someone help me?


Answer
By shocking your dog on a very sensitive part of their body, making them fear you.
You do not have to get one for both of your dogs.
These methods - and the use of shock collars - are dangerous methods of "training" and are not effective.
There is no reason to use these methods.
They are just as bad as those fences.
I agree with professional [positive reinforcement] trainer Victoria Stilwell and the points she has made about electric dog fences.
I also agree with her on her stance for shock collars as a training method.

" * Using shock to train dogs. "Many dogs are anxious about going out in their yards after receiving the shock and freak out,â not wanting to go out in the yard again.
* The electronic fence is dangerous. "Countless dogs run through the electric fences and they get shocked so badly that they don't want to come back. . . lots of them are getting lost."
* "A lot of dogs are getting killed because they go out onto the road" after running through the fence.
* Electronic containment systems do not stop other animals and people coming onto the property.
* "People leave their animals out with a false sense of security."

Also dogs bark for numerous reasons! Mostly boredom and lack of attention by owners.
Read this article about barking: http://positively.com/2011/06/04/barking-barking-barking-etc-etc-etc/

So I beg you DO NOT use shock collars, or electric/invisible fences, as a way to train your dog. Be RESPONSIBLE and do your RESEARCH about what damage they can do to your dog.
Use positive reinforcement training - it is most effective and not cruel.

Do any royal ladies or courtiers keep pekingese dogs anymore?




Blue Angel


Queen Victoria had the first pair outside of China. She adored a male named Lootie. Queen Alexandra never left home without one and they became fashionable for ladies of the court. Maria Fyodorovna was mad for them.
Do any of the royals or courtiers keep up the kennel that Victoria started? I've read that all Pekes in the west are descended from her dogs.



Answer
Many of the Royal Family have dogs, but the idea of 'royal ladies or courtiers' keeping their dogs at Court is NOT what the modern Royal Family is about. LOL

I don't know whether the royal kennels are still in operation much as I think the Labs used on the various Estates are probably bred there. Sandringham?

Certainly the Queen is famous for her Corgis, although I doubt she now has as many as she once did. We all have to cut back as we get older so we don't leave loads when we die. Princess Anne has dogs, and William and Catherine have a Cocker Spaniel - famously.
