Bark Collars
If your dog is barking excessively, you probably aren't the only one bothered by it. Chances are, your neighbors aren't too appreciative of the yelping chorus. If you have a problem barker, bark collars are a safe, effective and humane way to control nuisance or excessive barking. Dog bark collars are proven to quickly control barking in a very short period of time.
Dogs are like people. They have their own individual personalities. Inasmuch, bark collars aren't a one size fits all solution. You will carefully want to consider the type you choose based on your dog's personality and temperament. There are three main types of bark control you will be able to choose from: shock, spray and ultrasonic collars. Read more
Shock, or static, correction bark collars are an extremely effective way to stop nuisance barking. Whenever your dog barks, he will receive a mild static shock in response. Most dogs learn quickly to associate the shock with their barking, which helps to control further barking. Shock bark control comes in a variety of flavors. Some of the options available are rechargeable and battery replaceable, progressive correction and manually set and single correction level vs. multiple levels.
bark collars also come in citronella or spray anti-bark collar versions. This type releases a harmless spray towards your dog's nose whenever a microphone in the bark control collar detects his barking. Dogs can't stand the scent of citronella, and the scent alone may be distracting enough to deter his barking. In addition, the collar makes a hissing noise when activated and this noise helps to distract your dog, as well. The spray dog bark collars really get the attention of of your dog's senses: your dog will feel the mist hitting his snout, he'll smell and see the spray and be able to hear the hissing. In most cases, dogs learn quickly to stop barking in order to avoid the spray.
The last type of bark control is the ultrasonic collar. These dog bark collars work by emitting a high-pitched, ultrasonic tone whenever the attached microphone picks up on your dog barking. The ultrasonic tone can normally only be heard by animals, so it's not annoying to people. The ultrasonic sound is intended to distract and annoy your dog, thereby getting him to stop barking. There are also ultrasonic devices available that can be placed in a room or outside.
If you've become exasperated with your dog's nuisance or excessive barking, it may be time to consider bark collars as a solution.
