I just bought a high decibel pet trainer, which emits a silent (to humans) alarm that only animals can hear. It hurts their ears, but does no permanent damage. I have four dogs, and when I'm sitting in my sun room and they are on the attached deck, if they start barking at something I give them a 2 second zap, yell NO! and they all shut up instantly. They kind of cock their heads in a quizical way, as if to say "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?" This little device only cost me $20, and works off of two double A batteries. It works on my cats too. When they jump on the kitchen table, I zap them and they get off immediately. After a few zaps, they hardly ever try to get onto the table.
