How Does Bark Control Work?

Bark Collars are behaviourally-activated and worn by the dog. They work by detecting a dog’s bark with a sensor that rests against the dog’s neck. When the dog barks, the collar automatically responds with a startling stimulation that captures his attention. This consistent, immediate interruption of barking behaviour gradually teaches a dog to bark less.

Indoor and Outdoor Bark Control devices are also available that can reduce barking without the use of a collar. These devices detect the sound of barking and automatically respond with an ultrasonic sound that interrupts the barking behaviour. Because no collar is required, these can even be used to discourage a neighbour's dog from barking.
Types of Bark Control

Spray
Uses a quick burst of harmless spray near your dog's face to interrupt barking; spray can be unscented or citronella-scented

Static
Uses a harmless electronic "static" pulse against your dog's skin to interrupt barking instantly and consistently

Audible
Uses SoundBurst™ Technology to interrupt barking with an abrupt, harmless sound that dogs and people can hear.

Vibration
Uses a harmless vibration against your dog's skin to interrupt barking; feels somewhat like the vibration of a mobile phone
