Train Dog to Stop Barking with these Collars

Many people love their dogs but cannot stand when they constantly bark.  True, we want them as a guardian, we want them to protect us, alert us of any danger, and let us know if a guy dressed in black is trying to creep into the window.  We also want our beloved dogs to tell us when they have to “potty” and need to be taken outside.

Having said that, when barking goes from what I just mentioned to barking all day long, at everything, it becomes a huge problem.  When they bark at every little noise they hear (dogs have acute hearing) or person they see or when a guest comes over it gets annoying.  And when your neighbors start to get annoyed you know you have a problem.

There are various methods to train your dog.  Some view some ways more humane than others.  Oh course, by the title of this blog, you know I am referring to anti bark collars.  It is one of the best options on the market today.

Contrary to what many people believe these bark collars are not inhumane and do not hurt your dog.  I have found for myself that they are very effective at doing what they are supposed to do.

If you are a person who just cannot handle your dog getting shocked I recommend a citronella bark collar.  This devices stop your dog from barking by spray a lemon scented spray in the dogs face that he or she will not be able to stand.

Regardless of if they receive a shock or spray these collars will produce effects immediately and stop your dog from ending up in the pound.

Trust me, an anti bark collar will make your dog stop barking immediately. And when I say immediately I mean on the spot.  Follow the directions to the letter and it will produce the results you want.

Take the collars off before you and your dog go to bed.  If not the anti bark collar will cause a rash.  Make sure you apply it again to his or her neck in the morning though.

Anti Bark Collars

I first used an anti bark collar back in January 2009. It was on a recommendation of a good friend. It was for my pug and lasso whom I loved but drove me crazy due to their excessive barking.

My friend and I took a trip to Petsmart and bought two deluxe bark collars. They were the ones that gave a dog a small shock once they barked over a certain decimal.

It worked the first day I used it. Oh course the kids thought I was mean but I was at the last straw. I work from home and sometimes I could not hear myself think amidst all the barking especially when kids were getting home for school.

There are three main anti bark collars and you should use the one that you feel more comfortable with. The shock collar will get quicker results but some feel that the spray and ultrasonic bark collar are more humane. Regardless, hopefully my blog helps you in your decision.
