Dog Barking Collar, Saving Your Dogs Life

Article Title: Dog Barking Collar, Saving Your Dogs Life
Author: Jim Kesel

Purchasing a dog barking collar may save your dogs life.
Nothing will alienate your neighbors and bring the police to
your door quicker than a chronic barking dog. Every year barking
dog conflicts cause misery and the final loser is almost always
the dog. Thousands of dogs are sent to animal shelters to
ultimately be killed just because the owners did not take the
time and effort to train their dog not to bark. A dog barks for
many reasons. Not all barking is bad just ask any who has had a
criminal try to get into their house or whose house was
burglarized. The trick is to teach the dog when it is
appropriate to bark and when it is not. The proper use of a dog
barking collar will help you achieve this goal.

The use of a dog barking collar will in many cases be the
fastest and most economical method of correcting a barking
problem. However these dog training collars require you to
understand how and when to use them properly. There are three
types of dog barking collar on the market that are effective in
curbing unwanted barking. These include the citronella spray,
sound wave and the electronic stimulation dog bark collars. Of
these the most effective dog barking collar uses electric
stimulation. The use of citronella collars is popular with
people who think electric stimulation is wrong. The problem is
that many dogs soon become desensitized to the citronella spray
and begin to ignore its effects. No matter what dog barking
collar you plan to use you must understand why your dog is
barking.

A dog will bark for many reasons and you must take the time to
investigate root cause prior to using a dog bark collar. If your
dog is lonely or bored then a dog barking collar will be
effective. However if you have an aggressive or fearful dog you
may end up generating additional behavioral problems if you use
a dog bark collar. In some cases the correct use of an
electronic dog training collar will be more effective in curbing
a barking dog. In this case the trainer will provide stimulation
only when the dog is barking inappropriately. This method does
require patience and time to be effective. Most people who have
a barking dog want a fast and automatic method of stopping the
barking that dog barking collars provide.

Current dog barking collars have the ability to respond to
barking automatically. Once the dog begins to bark the
stimulation begins at a low level and increases until the dog
stops barking. Once the barking stops the collar resets itself
back to the lower stimulation level. It does not take long for
the dog to realize that its excessive barking results in
negative feedback. Most of the new dog barking collars on the
market today have safety features that prevent excessive or
continuous stimulation. Top of the line dog barking collar
manufactures and brands include Innotek, PetSafe, Cabelas,
Dogtra and Tri-Tronics.

Taking the effort and time to stop your dog's excessive barking
with a dog bark collar may save his life. In addition your
relationship with other family members and neighbors will
improve greatly once the barking stops. Owning a dog is a
serious responsibility that requires work and dedication. You
have no right to send your dog to the local animal shelter to
have it put down or killed just because you could not control
its barking. Many top of the line dog barking collars are less
than $100 so there is no real excuse for not purchasing one and
using it to stop the barking.

Dog training collar can be really helpful for many dog owners. The best way to use it is only when the dog is doing unwanted or undesirable behaviors that you do not want them to do.
