Using An Anti Bark Collar to Quiet Your Barking
Dog
No one likes a barking dog, but sometimes all of your
attempts to quiet a barking dog dont work and you are
left frustrated and desperate for help. Barking becomes
an especially serious issue when owners are threatened
with evictions, tickets, or fines because of their
barking dog, and this is usually when most owners think
about purchasing an anti bark collar.
Using an anti bark collar is usually a last resort, but
luckily the collars work immediately to quiet barking
and reduce owner stress. Despite what some people may
suggest, these bark control type collars are an
effective and humane way to quiet and train your dog.
Anti bark collars work using a device to detect your
dogs bark, this device is usually a microphone or some
sort of vibration sensor. When your dog barks the device
is triggered to automatically correct the behavior the
moment he barks, allowing him to associate barking with
an undesirable consequence. This automatic trigger
teaches most dogs quickly that barking is not desired
and theyll stop. Anti bark collars work well no matter
where you are so you dont have to worry about what Fido
is up to when you are away from home.
Many dogs bark out of separation anxiety when you leave
home, and typically bark collars do not work on dogs
that bark for this reason. If you suspect separation
anxiety do not attempt to use an anti bark collar,
instead consult your veterinarian and discuss options
may better suite your dog.
There are different types of anti bark collars such as:
Static shock anti bark collars: This is probably the
most effective type of bark control collar on the market
today. When the dog barks a vibration sensor detects it,
and immediately sends a very mild electric shock to the
dog. Most of these anti bark collars allow you to adjust
the intensity of the shock that is delivered to your
dog.
If you have a real sensitive dog, youll want to set it
on the lowest setting. Basically, youll match the
intensity level to your dogs temperament. Static shock
collars should not be used on aggressive dogs without
first consulting your veterinarian or animal
behaviorist.
The price range on the static shock collars really
varies. Typically, the more expensive collars will save
you money down the line because you wont have to deal
with replacing expensive batteries, or water damage. So,
consider your continued cost as well as initial purchase
price before deciding that any one collar too expensive..
Citronella anti bark collar: This is a very humane and
effective means of bark control. These anti bark collars
work by spraying citronella directly in the face of the
dog every time he barks. The shock of the unpleasant
smell will quickly teach a dog not to bark for fear of
experiencing the strong smelling odor again.
A citronella anti bark collar has been shown to work on
nine out of ten dogs, so its a good first step to bark
control. And, without the potential behavior problems
often caused by static shock (such as fear or
aggression) its definitely worth a try.
Ultrasonic noise anti bark collar: This type of bark
control collar really isnt useful at all. This type of
anti bark collar works by emitting a shrill noise that
your dog can hear, but you cannot. These collars seldom
work, if ever, and should be considered a waste of your
time and money..
As you can see, there are different steps you can take
to try to quiet your barking dog. If you feel you have
to resort to using an anti bark collar dont feel bad,
remember you are doing what you can to keep your dog
living in your house and neighborhood peacefully.
