Thank you all for your responses. I appreciate each and every one of them.
Patience also barks at the neighbors when they are out back riding their four wheelers or motor bikes or whatever else they're riding. Patience has a nylon collar. She's attached to a chain that is attached to a 40 ft. cable. I have gone out with a choker chain and a leash and did a quick jerk on her every time she barked and then drug her in when I'd get nowhere with that. Like I said before, she's not the brightest crayon in the box. I don't know if she's not getting it or doesn't want to get it. I'll try to focus on the choker chain and leash and food reward and just stick to that exclusively for a longer period of time and see if that works. How long should I train her at one time? I know I have to do it daily. How many times a day?
The horse fence didn't have any juice on it until the other day. We figured we've give the horses a chance. I didn't want to zap them unless they needed it. Well, Rebel decided to live up to his name and kept getting out so we put electric up. The next time Patience gets loose and tries to get in with the horses, she'll be in for a surprise. It won't bother Dakota though. Our neighbors in the back has a horse with an electric fence and one time when Dakota got loose, he was literally laying on the fence. We figured it wasn't turned on. Boy were we surprised when we touched it!!
