Default Help needed with noisy dogs

Smoke alarms are cheap, a forced move to the country is not. Bark collars require training to be effective, and these home owners don't seem to be interested or capable of training their dogs. There is nothing inhumane about debarking; spaying/neutering has a bigger effect on the dogs physiology. And like I said earlier, our dogs had no idea their bark was gone (well, dramatically quieter). I'd much rather have the surgery than have to give the dogs away. I love my dogs like children but if barking stood in the way of us moving to the Villages I'd have the surgery done again in a heartbeat.
