Why the dog barks?
All dogs bark but some barking dogs become a nuisance. Excessive barking is one of the most disruptive neighbourhood issues and requires immediate attention.
Using traditional methods may fail to provide quick fix or easy solution to barking problem. Yelling or hitting the dog, and other violent approaches may cause other behaviour problems. By understanding the reasons for the dog's barking, owners can determine what the necessary steps to take to stop him. If he barks excessively for no reason at all, a bark dog collar can be a very reliable and useful device. |
The market provides a wide collection of bark dog collar systems with each one having a stylish, comfortable look and offering a unique feature. These collars can either correct the dogs or modify their behavior. The goal for all dog owners is to teach their dog not to bark and to be able to remove the anti barking dog collar later on after getting rid of the problem.
Some dog bark colars are rechargeable, some are waterproof, etc. Below we review the various different dog bark colars. Most of the quality dog bark colars offered today are offered by either Innotek or PetSafe. The Innotek dog bark colars are advanced correction and behavior modification collars. The PetSafe dog bark colars are correction only.
Besides barking dog collar, some companies still offer bark collars which use ultrasound to control the dogs barking. Collars or devices which emit ultrasound are not specific. Although the ultrasound will be heard by the barking dog, so will it be heard by all other pets in the home, which were not barking! Ultrasound collars are still available, but many retailers are fazing them out because the dog bark colars are much more effective. For many retailers the ultrasonic collars, because of their relative poor success rate have resulted in a high return rate. So the retailers are no longer offering ultrasonic collars.
There are also citronella collars available. This does sound strange, but they are available. Basically a reservoir filled with citronella is placed on the front of the collar. When the dog barks a citronella spray is projected through a tube toward the dogs nose and face. The harsh chemical serves as a correction when a dog barks. These collars can break, are not small for little dogs, and require repeated refills of citronella. Do they work, probably not. But even if they did work, it is a complicated system spraying a noxious chemical which some say does not hurt a dog. If owners can believe that and can bring theself to spray citronella into the face, then consider using it for the dog.
How It Works
The barking dog collar is a training device that helps reduce nuisance barking. There are two key features of the anti barking dog collar. The first is a mild warning sensation triggered by the dog’s first bark. The second feature occurs when the dog barks again within 30 seconds of the first bark. This will be the first and lowest level of correction. There are a total of 6 levels of correction that are triggered by the dog’s successive barks. Each successive bark will increase the correction level if the bark is within 30 seconds of the previous bark. If the dog does not bark for at least 30 seconds the receiver resets itself. Along with each correction there will be an audible beep. As a built-in safety feature, when the dog barks 15 times or more in a 50 second period the collar will automatically shut off for a period of 3 minutes.
