Hi All,
We have had some problems with Tucker barking for the last few weeks. He is almost 4 months old and at the beginning we had some problems with him barking because he absolutely hated his crate. We then tried giving him the run of our tiny condo hallway it worked out well for a few weeks but then something switched and he began barking again. For the past week or so we have been bringing him to my boyfriend's parents house while we are at work but they are realizing that he is a lot of work and don't want to take him every day anymore. Everyday we are getting complaints from the management office of our condo so something needs to be done. We tried putting him in our washroom while we are gone to create a smaller more confined space for him but again we are receiving calls that he is barking. We are really at our witts end because we cannot afford to get evicted.
Does anyone have any suggestions to stop barking? I was thinking about trying one of those collars that sprays citronella spray. Keep in mind, that he is as quiet as a mouse when we are home.
Any help is appreciated!
Laurie
