Frequently Asked Questions
Will my dog stop
barking completely? • The Bark Control Collar effectively and humanely
stops most barking when it is worn. It should only
be worn during periods of unwanted barking.
Will another dog’s
bark set off the Bark
Control Collar? • No.
Will it hurt my pet? • No. The static stimulation is designed to get your
pet’s attention, but not punish him. The initial
static correction may startle your dog; most pets
will only receive a few static corrections during
normal usage.
Will the Bark Control
Collar work for my
dog? • The Bark Control Collar is safe and effective for
all breeds and sizes of dogs, though it may be
too large for dogs under 3.6 kg (8 lbs) to wear
comfortably.
• The system should only be used with pets who
are over 6 months of age. If your pet is injured or
its mobility is otherwise impaired, contact your
veterinarian or professional trainer before use.
Can I attach a lead
to the Bark Control
Collar? • No. This can result in pulling the Contact Points
too tightly against your pet’s neck. Attach a lead to a
separate, non-metallic collar, making sure the extra
collar does not put pressure on the Contact Points.
