If you have tried and failed with various other training methods to discourage inappropriate barking in your dog (such as positive reinforcement activities or just plain giving him more attention), then the Ergo Systems No Bark Trainer might be something you are considering.
Bark control collars and devices are a last resort and should only be used AFTER you have attempted other training and positive reinforcement methods to curb your dog’s excessive barking.
A stop bark collar is not an answer to attention seeking behavioural issues!
Try Natural Remedies for bark control before resorting to a collar.
A barking control collar or device should never be used to completely stop your dog from barking all the time, but only for excessive barking.
At DogBarkStop.com we do not recommend the use of any electric shock or static shock collar to control a dog’s excessive barking.
Yes, they may stop a dog from barking but so will administering any type of pain. Using pain to control an animal is archaic and cruel, therefore this site takes the approach of reviewing and recommending only the small selection of humane bark control devices that are available and educating people about why they should avoid electric shock collars, ‘static’ collars, ‘correction’ collars and any other such device that is termed in a way to mislead you, the buyer, into thinking that it is a humane product to use on your beloved pet.
