One of the most common problems that new dog owners face is teaching their pets not to bark at the wrong time. A bark shock collar is a good solution to the barking problem, but a lot of people object to them because the word “shock” brings them an image of electrocution.
Dog owners have to realize that dogs understand things like “punishment” or “reward” in a different way that humans do. Unless you try to ‘correct’ or ‘punish’ your dog at the very time it is miss-behaving, it will not know why you are acting the way you are. Some new owners might feel that punishing a dog is morally wrong, without realizing that a dog’s sense of punishment and resistance is much more different from humans, If the owner is berating the dog many minutes after the ‘offence’, the dog simply gets confused because it does not associate the punishment with the offence.
Instead, Use a Bark Collar!
A dog bark shock collar works by delivering a small static discharge to the dog’s neck whenever it starts barking. The shock is instantaneous and since it happens when the dog barks, the dog is much more likely to make a better connection betweeen bad behavior and punishment. Most dogs will soon learn that barking will be punished and will control their impulse. In reality, the dog is not ‘hurt’ by the shock, it is confused and ‘forgets’ to bark while trying to work out what happened.
Trainers agree that shock collars aren’t cruel, but helpful when trying to teach your dog to behave; and with time, the dog learns to avoid the shock completely.
No dog bark shock collar should be used for more than half an hour or so each day and then, only at times when barking would be a nuisance. Dogs are smart and they will learn to stop “bad” barking in order to avoid the punishment once they figure out the link between the barking and the shock. A dog’s bark collar comes with instructions, and if you just follow them, your dog will stop inconvenient barking in no time.
A bark shock collar has a reputation of being cruel. Nevertheless, the shock is rather harmless and panlessl and it only confuses the dog a little. On the other hand, using adog bark shock collar will help you train your dog and avoid invonvenient barking.
