bit of a detour with this post, but since were on the subject of bark collars...

has anyone used those E collars?

my 11 month GSD has a horrible habit me and my family just cant seem to break...

he has full free roam of the house 24/7, but whenever he wants to go out side he stands infront of the door for 2 seconds and if nobodys there, he jumps and claws at the door. hes already gone through several window curtain things from getting his claws and pulling them off the hooks.

ive tried to make him sit for 1 minute, which he will do, but he'll only do it IF i'm standing there. if nobody else is in the room, its clawing time. I've tried to get him to sit and bark, but nope. my other dog just sits and lays in front of the door until someone opens it (my living room has decent view of the door so we can usually see either dog there within a few seconds of being there).

any tips? training shock collars? ive used a pinch collar on him for all his obedience training and its worked like a charm. not sure if I should just leave the pinch collar on him (which would be cruel) and give him a tug every time he jumps and claws...or get a training collar and give him a pop each time...

any suggestions?
