On the face of it, the shock collar sounds great, but many years ago, I had a
dog that I used to use
an electronic shock collar on to combat her awful barking while in her run.
She would start to bark, but when I went outside to correct her, before I had a
chance to open my
mouth, she would close her's: the upshot being that if I corrected Tam then, I
was, virtually,
correcting her for being quiet.
I got an electric shock collar and with it came a dummy collar and the
instructions were that when
the electronic collar was on the charger, the dog should wear the dummy.
Now, I don't know how Tam distinguished between the genuine and dummy collars,
but believe me, she
could.
When she had the shock collar on, blessed silence reigned, but when wearing the
dummy, the noise
recommenced.
I finally had her debarked. She could still bark, but now all of those
maddening high frequencies
had been cancelled out, so life was happier for all of us, Tam, myself and
everyone within a radius
of half a mile.

I would check with a pet store, not sure if you have a Pet smart, or pet Co,
but they have a device that you put in the middle of the table, and set the
diameter, lets say 4 foot, and the dog wears a collar and if the dog gets
close, it first beeps, if the dog persists, then they get a shock.
