The behavior dog training market has grown substantially in recent years as more and more pet owners get involved with in home dog training. There are many anti-bark collars on the market today. The variety of this type of dog training collar is very extensive. Although you can find anti-bark collars for all all kinds of size, weight, age and even shape of dog, we'll discuss some of the main types that are currently available.
Dog Training Barking Collar - Spray Type
One type of anti-bark collar for behavior dog training is the spray type. When initiated or triggered an unusual chemical spray causes the dog to immediately pay attention and interrupts their barking. The spray causes discomfort on many levels, but does not harm the dog. It affects all the senses of the dog (sight, smell, hearing and feeling) and is strong enough to break the dog's excessive barking pattern.
Citronella is commonly used in these sprays due to it's strong and unusual smell to the dog. It is harmless, but it is very effective.
Behavior Dog Training For Barking Using The Static Shock Type Collar
Another type of anti-bark collar is the electric static shock type. It is triggered by either the sound of his barking or the vibration from the bark. It is another very effective and safe way to retrain your pet's barking outbursts.
The good aspect of this type of anti-bark collar is that it will continue more corrective electronic signals to the dog if it continues to bark. The dog quickly learns to think before barking. The dog will learn to like quiet.
Using The Sonic Type Anti-Bark Collar For In Home Dog Training
Another type of dog training for barking collar that is commonly used in behavior dog training is the sonic high frequency collar. These collars emit an ultra-high frequency sound that most humans cannot hear but a dog does hear quite easily. It is very unpleasant to a dog and inevitably stops the barking as the dog associates discomfort with his barking.
There are some brands and models of this sonic frequency type collar that are lower pitched and may be slightly audible to humans, but still effective in curbing a dog's unwanted and excessive barking. These are frequently used for in home dog training programs for barking.
The advantage with the higher pitched sound is that it is almost completely out of the range of the human ears capacity, so that your dog gets the message without everyone around also having to participate. There are also sonic devices available from various manufacturers that can work remotely and do not have to be attached to the dog's collar.
One word of caution. Check first with your veterinarian before using any anti-bark collars with puppies under six months or any dog suffering from anxiety problems. It is important that your in home dog training program use only safe practices for any unusual situation.
