PetSafe Basic Bark Control Collar for Dogs 8 lb. and Up, Anti-Bark Training Device, Waterproof, Static Correction, Canine - Automatic Dog Training Collar to Decrease Barking

Here is a quick review I had to write. I have seen a dramatic change in our pet since her collar was installed. A 15lb. box of Propel is now available. A cavachon was an example of one of those anxiety-driven dogs It is common for small dogs to be ridden. She did have moments when she was completely relaxed, but she was often on "high alert", as if it was her duty to keep us and herself safe. A dog, a pedestrian, a biker, a pedestrian, or a cyclist could be seen out of the windows. Barking like a maniac would make her bark like a dog. Oh my god, she went insane if anyone or anything came to the door. A Tasmanian devil would bark and twist in circles like this. The dog had a bad habit of protecting particular items (food, socks with bad smells, trash she snagged) at unpredictable times and biting us or yelling at us if there were any problems. This is a few words about the collar we bought about two months ago after my husband began It was just too disruptive to him to hear her bark so often. This collar is old, and we should have purchased it There is nothing like it I didn't know My understanding was that the only shock collars available had to be those where the owner pressed a button to shock the dog. Seeing as it seems mean, that wasn't appealing to me. Collars like this aren't meant to be mean. The first test I gave myself was a shock. It doesn't hurt too much, but it is a little uncomfortable. It took him only a few days to learn. It took her a bit to calm down after the first shock, and she wanted to be held a lot. Then she really mellowed out and learned to stop barking for no reason. The dog may bark once but does not bark again after hearing the warning beep. Like when she was trained to our electric fence, she doesn't wear the collar very often but is quite adept at it nonetheless. Does not seem to be in the need to bark as much due to her high anxiety. Her behavior is now much calmer, peaceful, and happy. The burden to be in charge of something has lifted from her and she feels relieved. In any case, this was the best purchase of my life!.

understand that shocking your dog is a bad thing, and you should feel bad for doing My 1 year old daughter got in trouble with our neighbors after I started using it. During the Sunday worship service, the boxer barked at obnoxious times (4 am, 6am). It works a whole lot better than what I got with the citronella spray collar (which didn't). It is a good collar for what its intended purpose The third shock level on my neck was achieved when I tried it on myself. My body was not in pain, only annoyed by the It is now been zapped 3 times in total (my dog is a quick learner) after I have had it for a few months. The only time I use it is when he is really barking, I put it on his neck, and he does not bark. For this to work properly, you should not leave it on overnight nor for more than 6 continuous hours. The dog stops barking because your dog is not barking. - A one size fits all approach is not the best (for small dogs I would recommend a big dog)
- The first time he barks while the collar is on, he learns not to do it. A total of three times he has been shocked in the collar during the last 3 months*, never barks with it on. Dogs do not bark for attention outside of playtime they are not allowed to do so. I have found that to be true with my dog. The waterproofing - I and my dog now have a better relationship with my neighbors, it's a plus! BAD - The dog is getting zapped while you're zapping it- Battery availability is not an issue with PetSafe, you can't get the batteries in any store.

In the wake of reading all the negative reviews and viewing all the awful pictures, I was a little skeptical to buy this. The last thing I wanted for my little guy was for anything bad to happen to him. Nevertheless, I tried it and placed it on my doggie, but did not leave him unattended for the rest of the I did not see any harm to my little one because the collar did its job. If he gets a little agitated when I am home, I put the collar on. He is always in my sights, but I am always nearby. far, nothing but good results have been achieved. There are several negative reviews and pictures posted on the Dog Humane Society website, but I wonder if they are being posted by.

I have tried over 6 collars on my Boxer and returned all but two. So far I am satisfied with it. My boxer has tested out other collars and none of them worked. It was a fright that the shock, the vibration, and the beeps all worked. By progressively changing the shock level, this one can learn to respond to the dogs barking patterns. Upon opening the battery compartment, you will find some powerful electronics inside. You don't need to cut off the excess off the collar, but you can heat the ends to prevent In the past year, the dog always barked at all time and within a week of this collar being on, his barking really reduced. Forget about vibrations and sounds, this collar learns and reduces the dog's He can now run over the fence and no longer has to be scared of people. It wouldn't bother him if a flea jumped on him!.

Due to the fact that I have two dogs, I will describe my experiences with each of them * This bark collar only worked part of the time when our larger dog, which has longer hair and is about 20 lbs, was wearing it. I either had to wear it too tightly for my comfort, or she learned that chirping instead of barking would trigger the collar. My dog has learned to adjust her bark in such a way that the collar would not work, so I called her chirp for now since I am not sure what else to call it. In recent months, we have switched from a regular collar to a training collar since she reacts to just the beep and does not require it to be overly It weighs 80 lbs and has short hair. Dog two is also a member of the same litter. Although this collar worked well with the shorter hair, she is not a very vocal dog and would usually only bark or make noises in the mornings. Since I had this collar from dog one, it was really only used a few times. But I ended up going to a training collar with it with great results with everything from digging to jumps. To conclude, if you do not have a long-haired pet and only need a bark suppressant for barking then this product may be a good choice Personally, I'd like to be able to control the amount of correction a dog receives using a remote and to have a rechargeable device. There is no way I could go back to a bark-only collar in the future, but it depends on what you prefer.

This really had to work for me. The lions appeared to be working, but I couldn't tell. No matter how much they whine, they will not change. No action is taken until a robust bark is heard. A barking won't work if they shake their heads and it moves away from the center. You need everything perfectly aligned, perfectly tight, and with the right amount of That's the way it should be. If this is the case, the prongs tend to keep the throat under too much pressure. I caught my big girl's head out of the window when she stuck her head out of the window. After the prongs become stuck to her throat, she gags and coughs. This is so disappointing for me. This really had to work for me. Neither of my dogs are responsive to the shock collars I use regularly. In the near future, I will look for a different type that doesn't rely on a prong attached.
