I have read the sticky post and the stomping and thumping on the floor is a great idea except this does not work for my Macy.

A friend of mine has a pet pager for her dog.  It is like the collar, but it just clips to the collar they already have.  I dont know where she got hers but they are similiar to this one....

Isis doesnt respond to any form of stomping etc either..we taught her as soon as we got her to look for us...constantly.. she DOES respond when Onyx barks though so she feels vibration in her ears...but as far as me doing it ..haha she could careless

I bought a vibrating collar off ebay.  It was about $30-40 shipped.  I'm happy with it, although I haven't trained him to respond to it yet.

I think I need to try the laser thing and if that doesn't work I will start searching ebay.  I am also going to look on ebay for a kennel so that we have something to take her camping in.
