What to Expect During Use of the

Bark Control Collar

Important: Do not leave your dog alone the ﬁ rst few times he receives a

staticstimulation.

Place the Bark Control Collar properly on your dog and wait nearby until he barks.

Most dogs will understand very quickly that the Bark Control Collar is disrupting their

urge to bark and will relax and stop barking. Because the static stimulation from the

Bark Control Collar may be surprising or startling at ﬁ rst, some dogs may bark more

when they receive the initial static stimulation.

On rare occasions, a dog may get into a bark-static stimulation-bark-static

stimulation cycle. If this happens, reassure your dog with calm, soothing tones. As

your dog relaxes, he will understand that if he becomes quiet, he will not receive any

more static stimulations. The small minority of dogs that have this reaction will only

have it the ﬁ rst time they wear the Bark Control Collar.

You should notice a reduction in your dog’s barking within the ﬁ rst couple of days

that he wears the Bark Control Collar. At this point, it is important to remember the

learning process is still not complete. Dogs will “test” this new learning experience

and will increase their attempts to bark. This usually occurs during the second week

a dog wears the Bark Control Collar. If this does occur, remain consistent and do

not alter your use of the Bark Control Collar. You must place the Bark Control Collar

on your dog in every situation when you expect him to be quiet. If your dog is not

wearing the Bark Control Collar, he may resume barking and his learning would

suffer a setback.
