It does but is very expensive. I successfully trained my pound rescue, who was scared of her own reflection when I first took her on, in only four days. It won't work on animals that are very hyper and take off running, though. Dell's carries them.
Back to the original post....
I suggest following through with the police--that whole squeaky wheel approach. I am not sure it will work with the association, though, because if they enforce the loose dog situation it would only be right for them to also enforce the no livestock restriction in place for the subdivision.
Don't waste your time with the newspapers or other media outlets. It is not 'newsworthy' in their eyes.
There are little hand-held devices that you can get which throw off a sound frequency that dogs cannot stand, and want to get away from, that you can look into purchasing for preventative measures. It is a shame that we cannot own tazers--only the PD to control us unruly citizens of Hawaii....
