If you know how each type of bark collar works that you realize the best
and the most effective bark collar for your dog. The best branded anti-bark
collars are : Petsafe, Innotech, TriTronics, SportDOG, Dogtra, Dogtek. These
bark collars have vibration and sound sensors to identify a bark. A collar
indentifies vibration in the throat of dog when he is going to bark and differentiates
sound from bark each time. When both of sensors detect bark it reacts by
sending the dog an unpleasant signal. After a few days a dog realizes that
negative correction can stop only calm behavior.
Don’t buy cheap bark collars which have only one sensor and indentify
bark only by vibration or by sound. Sometimes one sensor defines falsely external
noises and can distract your dog.
Nowadays the most effective types of bark collars are: citronella dog bark collars, shock bark
collars (known as electronic bark collars) and ultrasonic bark collars.
Ultrasonic anti-bark collar
Ultrasonic anti-bark collar control a dog by transmitting high-frequency
sound which dogs don’t like. Ears of dog start
hurting each time when he barks. It is safely for
humans because they cannot hear ultrasonic sound. Nevertheless these collars are not so
effective as citronella anti - bark collars and shock bark collars. Read article: ultrasonic bark collar reviews

I would like to tell you a little story about my best bark collar for my dog. We had problems with our neighbors who called the police three times to my house. I finally decide do something to solve the problem. I knew some terrible story about the bark collar, but there was no way, I bought SportDog 10R.
ReplyDeleteThis collar has 3 options to control a dog. The first, the shock increases when my dog starts barking and reduces when the dog becomes quite. The collar remember the level which stopped barking last time and use the same level next time your dog starts barking. This is a basic and default program, but I found it too harsh.
The second option begins at the lowest level of correction and increases until your dog stops barking, but next time the collar starts from the lowest level too. We found this program more pleasant for our dog and use it.
The third option allows me to select the level independently and uses it each time. I decide to use the second option and find it humane.
I compared this collar with Tritronics and Remington, but three options of control and the rechargeable battery sold us to buy it. The first collar only gives current level of static shock, the second, is a new brand and I did not find user reviews.
It takes some time getting used the bark collar. Your dog may behave unusually until find out how to work a bark collar.
We used spray and ultrasonic device. They both have effect for short time period and our terrier barks again and again. He learned to ignore them. Every day we needed to refill spray collar and life of battery lasted 2 weeks. He started to resist spray, and after 2 weeks fully ignored ultrasonic sound.
ReplyDeleteWe tried to use a shock collar to stop barking. We used 6 v shock collar, but it was so punishing for him. Then we changed the collar and bought the Petsafe little dog bark collar. This collar was great for him.
The dog becomes a good boy and doesn’t scream in pain after correction. The battery is not rechargeable, but it the best collar for my small dog that I have bought.
As someone who has lived next door to a howling Malamut for 4 years - an average of 15 days every month of continuous howling for 1- 9 hours whenever the dog was left alone in a locked house, I can say that electric collars have to be used consistently and monitored systematically. Unless you are logging the results, how else are you to know what settings to use. If you start with a low setting then the dog will get de-sensitised to the shock. All of this shouldn't be a replacement for proper training of the dog.
