How to Stop Your Dog Nuisance Barking by Using a Dog Spray Collar


!±8± How to Stop Your Dog Nuisance Barking by Using a Dog Spray Collar

"Nuisance" barking of pet dogs can really be annoying-and embarrassing to the neighbors. Fortunately, there is a solution to this problem: a dog spray collar. This device is the ideal tool for training your dog not to bark unnecessarily; it is not only safe but also humane.

As you probably have experienced already (I know I have), it is ineffective to try stopping your dog from barking inappropriately. It was very uncomfortable and I felt helpless apologizing to my neighbors while my dog continued to bark.

How the Dog Spray Collar works

A dog's barking triggers the dog spray collar to release a harmless scented substance, called Citronella, which the majority of dogs don't like. This method of training dogs uses four out of the five senses dogs possess. The dogs can see, smell, feel and hear the spray.

Whenever a dog wearing the collar barks, the spray released produces an annoying hissing sound. Since the spray is released to the neck and face, it serves as a distraction which stops the dog from barking. When the dog hears this noise, smells the Citronella, sees the spray, feels the mist, it quickly learns that these things mean "stop barking".

Dog Spray Collar types

Dog owners can choose from two main types of dog collar spray. First of the two types is the automatic one, which most owners prefer. It is made by Innotek, Multivet and PetSafe. This collar type has a microphone and vibration sensors, which can detect a dog's bark. The sensors are battery-powered and are usually attached to the collar. It is therefore necessary to regularly check the battery and to replace it when needed. When triggered, the sensors facilitate the release of the Citronella spray to the neck and face of the dog. Over time, the dog becomes trained to refrain from barking, in anticipation of the spray. In trying to avoid the spray, not barking gradually becomes a habit.

If you're just starting to use the spray, you will notice that you may have to adjust it. The collar has controls for this. What's good about this type of collar is that the owner does not have to always be around to stop his/her pet from barking.

The other type of dog collar spray is remote-controlled. It is usually the preference of professional dog trainers. It is also be used to train a dog in other areas, aside from preventing nuisance barking. This type of collar has a button-triggered handheld activation control device which the dog owner or trainer carries. The control device has range of approximately 100 meters. The benefit of using this type of collar is that it is activated only when the barking is inappropriate; there is, naturally, no need to suppress all of a dog's barking. The remote-controlled collar is a little more expensive than the automatic one. It is made by Premier, Multivet and PetSafe. Dog owners recommend these collars because no pain or shock is involved.
