Excessive barking in dogs can be a nuisance for pet owners and their neighbors. Fortunately, there are humane and effective solutions available to address this issue. One such solution is the Ultrasonic Anti Barking Training Device, which emits harmless soundwave frequencies that only dogs can hear, helping to control excessive barking without causing harm to the pet1.

How It Works

The Ultrasonic Anti Barking Training Device is a handheld tool that emits an ultrasonic noise to interrupt a dog's barking behavior. This device is designed to quickly and effectively stop excessive barking, making it a great choice for pet owners looking for an easy-to-operate solution to their pet's barking problem2.

Professional Training

While the Ultrasonic Anti Barking Training Device offers a convenient way to address excessive barking, it's important to note that professional training and behavior modification techniques are also valuable tools in managing a dog's barking. The ASPCA recommends positive reinforcement methods and discourages the use of punishment devices such as anti-bark collars as a first choice for dealing with a barking problem5.

Using the Device

The Ultrasonic Anti Barking Training Device is easy to use and can be a valuable tool in a comprehensive approach to training and managing a dog's behavior. When used in conjunction with positive reinforcement and professional training, this device can contribute to a peaceful and harmonious relationship between pets, their owners, and their neighbors.

It finally happened! Today I got a diagnosis for my pots!! I went to see a new cardiologist almost 2 hours away and he diagnosed me with pots! I'm so happy someone finally heard me and sees my struggles. 🥹 Attached are some photos from my day at the appointment and in the town!

You don't know shame until you are almost crying in Millennium Park because of your body not being able to keep up with the people you are with.

I fucking hate my body.

There are 3 main types of assistive animals: therapy animals, service dogs, and emotional support animals. I'm taking a look at each type and some of the similarities and differences

Can I just say that I love the bond I have with my service dog (she's still developing and learning, esp. due to her age). She's so attentive and sweet. Even when it's difficult to handle the things that come with dealing with a dog, let alone a dog in her dinosaur phase (adolescence), she is My Buddy. She is always there for me to love me and accompany me, even when I feel alienated and alone.

I'm so proud of myself right now

I'm finally starting to take ziggy out every morning (and sometimes evening) and do some recall training and fetch/play for about 15-25 mins for the past 4 days!

To the average person this may not seem hard at all,may be ur every day thing that you dont put any thought into,but as a spoonie that struggles with doing stuff like that and getting Into routines that's a big deal for me.

Owner training with an invisible disability is so funny because people will come up and compliment you and tell you you’re such a good person for training a service dog for someone and then walk off before you can be like “actually he’s for me”

i have a friend who is a first-time pet owner and got her dog just under a year ago so still is getting the hang of things, and she keeps getting concerned over her dog doing the most basic animal behavior. not full-on takes him to the vet for everything level concerned, but still

"he ignored me :(" yeah sometimes the do that. "he was upset i was leaving this morning :(" yeah thats what animals do. "he doesn't like wearing outfits i keep buying him :(" yeah cus animals are supposed to be naked. "he likes my grandma more than me :(" yeah cus she stays home with him all day.

like, im glad she's concerned about her dog as opposed to being the type to brush everything off even if it is potentially worrying, but cmon.

🐾 🏖️ Sunday Swim 🏖️🐾

Ball Safety: When dogs pant their throats visibly expand (pictured above). Balls that normally wouldn’t be an issue can get lodged when panting. Mandana found this ball and we allowed her to play with it a little but when she started to pant harder we exchanged it for our Ruffwear Gnawt-A-Stick. There is a technique for removing balls from a dogs throat that everyone should learn but it isn’t a guarantee. This kind of accident is mostly preventable so choose your toys wisely & monitor play time 😊

Some photos of my service dog, Aspen, at the apple orchard yesterday. He did so well, I was very impressed! He was, however, a bit confused as to why apples fell off the trees themselves!

I don't feel real.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I need help.

I feel like everything is a dream and I can't comprehend what people are saying to me.

My SDIT has helped to ground me, but I still feel extremely dizzy.

I am hallucinating a small, wiggly man

I can't walk in a straight line and an so thirsty.

Am going to bed.

i wish i had a dog that had like. a singular ounce of self preservation instincts.

booker went too hard playing in the pool today and not only did he quick himself on all four paws, he also tore a couple pads on one foot.

big reason to muzzle train your dog, even if said dog is not a bite risk. booker let me trim the flaps of pad that were dangling off his paw but did not want me cleaning it and once it was clean i was able to put his proper muzzle on him to keep him from licking his paw and he’s been wearing it since, passed out in my bed. the muzzle is far more comfortable for him than a cone.

i haven't posted in a while & don't have much of an update, except to say that i was genuinely, strongly considering if i should wash Mischa - his anxiety in public spaces* isn't any better, though we also haven't done as much actual training as we should have (when we go someone, e.g. the supermarket, we're there to shop, not to train. but i really gotta make time to go there for training as well!). but he always surprises me - even though he's clearly not happy to be there, he's extraordinarily well behaved (except sometimes for some leash pulling...), and always does really well.

we've finally joined our local dog training club (now that we've moved and have access to one), we had our first session last week. we haven't been to a dog training class since puppy school, so i expected Mischa to be distracted and a pain, but he was so focused and did so well! the last ~5 minutes he was getting a bit antsy, but i'd run out of treats lol. and normally when we go to the dog park (where training is), it's to play and run around with other dogs, not to sit quietly and learn for 45 minutes. so i was very impressed!

(the training class is definitely too easy for us - sit, stay down, etc. - but i wanted to start with things we already know because its such a different environment than we're used to. i'm glad we did, i think we'd be ready to move up to the next class (Good Citizen) soon, but i think it's best to ease into it).

all that is to say, i'm more confident now that, with the exception of his anxiety, there's no real reason to wash. not at this stage, anyway. i'm moving interstate next year to go to uni, and i really, really want to be able to bring Misch with me. i just stayed for 2 weeks interstate for surgery, and i left Mischa with my dad because i knew i wouldn't be able to exercise him, and it was really hard! by the end of the 2 weeks i kept dreaming that when i got home he didn't recognise me anymore 😭. so if 2 weeks is that hard, i don't want to try 5 years!

*when i say 'public spaces' i mean things like shops, indoor malls, etc., not just out on the street or whatever. he's shy and doesn't like strangers, so i think a big part of that is the overwhelming, lots of people environment. (i get it, it makes me anxious too lol). but that said, he also doesn't like being in shops when we're the only people there - just the other day we went to a pet shop, we were the only customers, and all we did was walk around sniffing things and rewarding, but Misch was still very glad to leave.

my only solution i can think of is to keep training, gradual desensitisation, short visits only. but that's hard when you have limited energy - choosing between going to the shop for 10 minutes to train, therefore helping both Mischa and I for the long run, but feeling like i've "wasted" a trip (and energy) by not going shopping. or, going to the shop to do actual shopping, helping myself in the short term (by being able to eat lol), but overwhelming Mischa and using up all my energy for the day. i know that the long term solution is the better one, because it means eventually we can go to the shop to actually shop, and Mischa won't be overwhelmed because we did all this training. but the short term solution is also a necessity - i need to buy food to survive lol. (most of the time, i just leave Mischa in the car when I shop. we're not at a point where I can manage shopping (overwhelming and exhausting for me) and training a nervous dog at the same time). (i remember someone saying once that an ADiT becomes an AD when they're no longer a hindrance, but a help. at this stage, Mischa is still a hindrance!).

no one really talks about the struggles of training a dog when you're disabled, even though that's the whole reason why we have assistance animals!
