6 Tips for Anti Bark Collars for Dogs

What concerns do you have about using bark collars?

I got mine on Amazon and it works perfectly!

Thanks this is fab. I got one yesterday for my dog. I am taking it off at night as he's very quiet at night. Only gonna leave it on if he's in garden when we are all out, or while we are throwing his toys for him as he gets a bit noisy then. Taking it off if leaving him in the kitchen.

I'm going to give one a try, see I am getting good results from food and command training, my main problem is my dog's anxiety when alone mainly night times, so I don't need any other kind, and I will simply switch the collar on and off without him knowing when stroking daily as my main problem is night times when I need to sleep. And your right the collar should be sound and vibration activated only activated after extended periods of barking, also having a high pitch sound for a few chance warnings sounds like a good idea, as not to let your dog think each time it makes a noise it'll be shocked, that'd be mean haha Good video, informative.

which exact bark collar do you recommend for a sheltie? thanks

Thanks for the vid. Curious if you are aware of a vibration and sound collar that also works with a remote for other training purposes? Maybe the sport dog you suggests

What would you currently recommend for the no bark collar? I am looking at sport dog but it looks like they are mostly all about the noises now and not the vibration as well. Would you have a link that I could use? I have a lab and no matter what I do he will not stop. I want one like you show in the video but I am struggling to find one. Thanks!

Which sportdog bark collar do you recommend now?

I enjoyed this advice, but have to disagree totally with not using remote control for barking. I would never want my dog to never vocalize or be afraid to at all. We have only corrected for out of control barking in reaction to other dogs barking next door. A playful bark when chasing a ball is perfectly ok in my book. 😊

i have a three year old dog who is running around in our garden and she is barking at the neightbours nonstop, when we tell her to stop or offer something else to do she stops but after a while she starts barking again should we get a anti bark collar ? if so how to use it so she will listen?

Would this shock them if they're playing with other dogs and vocal? I have a Collie mix who is barking at things inside the house but he plays with my other dogs and yells/screams. I don't want it to shock him for acceptable noises like that, just when he barks at the neighbours, dogs, cars, etc.

Would you recommend a Garmin Bark Limiter 2?

Very interested reading this and wondered whether you think a bark collar might be for us. We have a young (7 months) Labrador Retriever. At night, he sleeps in a crate and is very well behaved an quiet. When he wakes up in the morning, he immediately begins to bark. We assumed this was because he needed the toilet so waited for a moment of quiet, praised and let him out to go pee. We then put him back in the crate. However, he won't settle then and after a few minutes, the barking begins again much louder and more persistent. At times, we've ridden it out for an hour or more and then it feels cruel letting him bark himself silly. The other issue is, the barking is happening earlier and earlier each morning. My partner is staying up with him later (1am) to try and get him to sleep later so we can praise that but he began waking at 6am for the toilet, once you put him back in his crate, he'd start barking again. So we tried getting him to the toilet before he'd start barking and then bringing him with us to the bedroom but that seemed to make him start earlier and earlier. As I said it was 6am, then 5.45am, then 5.30am and it keeps going back until at one point it was 4.30am. We don't think he's doing it because he needs a wee because when you put him back to bed he goes mad and starts barking like mad. I've read so many books on positive handling and told everyone to follow the rules and praise / let out when he isn't barking. He's fine in his crate as a rule and enjoys having his Kong brain toys etc. We try not to give him this though early in the morning as again, we feel like we are praising this early waking up. Do you think an anti-bark collar is a solution? Or are we missing something?

Thank you so much... someone recommended an Amazon collar for my yappy toy poodle, but I was hesitant and bought something on Amazon.. after this video- I went to the website for sport dog because I am so concerned about the use of these collars. Yet the barking is awful and people complain when they take care of him if I travel and leave him with someone...so....... I'm going to research on their site for something more appropriate...any suggestions for my toy poodle who is now 5 years old?

What about outside dogs? They bark all night and Idk any other options than to put a bark collar on at night, any suggestions?

What if it's braking/yelping?

My dog keeps barking when someone knocks on the door (Ideas?)

My dog is still barking with the collar on, what can I do? We are evacuated due to hurricane Laura and staying in a hotel. Any help would be appreciated.

you might not see this but are anti bark collars good for apartments? whenever i leave for school i leave them alone (incoming dog owner here)

My dog is 9 years old and she never barked when I left the house or left for work she would just sit there quietly all day long until I got home now I moved my girlfriend's dog into the house and he is a little Barker and now all of a sudden my dog is non stop barking when I leave. Like non stop and her bark is deep and loud
