What to expect from the
dog while training
The first time the dog receives a correction
from the barking dog collars he may react in
a way that concerns owners. He may yelp or yip
or jump slightly. Do not be alarmed by these
reactions. His first reaction to the correction
will always be his most intense. |
Do not be alarmed by any such reaction. After the first few corrections his reaction will lessen. He will eventually just stop barking and remain calm. It is advised that owners observe the dog's reactions to the correction.
Owners should notice an improvement in the dog's barking within the first week of training. At this point many dog owners feel that the "problem has been solved". In some cases this may be true, but in most cases the training is still not complete. Most, if not every dog, will "test" this new learning experience, i.e., they will increase their attempts to get away with barking. This testing period usually occurs during the second week of training. When it does occur owners must remain consistent - do not alter the use of the anti barking dog collars.
Once the dog is trained, owners must continue to place the bark dog collars on him in every situation in which he must be quiet. He may see a new dog or a squirrel through a window for the first time and he may bark. If he is not wearing the bark collar he may get away with barking and his training may suffer a setback. If he is wearing the bark collar, he will stop barking immediately and any setback will be prevented.
Using the anti barking dog collars with other devices
Owners may have a need to train the dog to do other things. If owners decide to use another type of training tool, be selective with the type owners use while the dog is wearing the collar. Generally, it is best not to let the dog wear more than one collar at a time. Never use a metal choker collar while the dog is wearing barking dog collars as it may trigger false signals and possibly false corrections. If owners must have a second collar on the dog consider the use of a nylon choker collar or other nonmetallic collar.
If owners use a leash, attach it to a collar other than the
one used for the bark dog collars. Owners should never
attach a leash to the barking dog collars and owners should
never pull a dog bark collar while it is on the
dog. Doing so owners may cause injury to his throat.
