derbylad 1 Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 been looking at getting some anti bark collars, do they work?, i want them for terriers do i go for the shock ones that give a warning high pitch sound first or just the high pitch ones or the spray one? any ideas cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jasper65 6 Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Not by my experience derbylad! I had 2 which give a audible signal first followed by a mild shock, if the dog keeps barking it gets a slightly stronger shock... the thing is if another dog starts to bark then the poor dog with the collar on gets the wack . both seemed to work better with the terriers than the Brittany I have here, the Brittany has always been a yappy dog and could bark clean through the shocks until the batteries ran out. thats the other thing I found with these! if the bateries are a bit low it hardly has any effect on the dog.......

Simoman 110 Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Forget spray and forget frequencey based collars, get an electric one, Citronella collars are deemed more "humane", whats better, a quick shock or citronella spoaryed up your primary sense? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

donk 12 Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Canicalm, neearly had to get rid of mine until i got 2 canicalm shock collars. They work on the vibration and noise of the howl or bark. Stopped my dogs within a couple of days. They emit a warning beep,then a longer beep,then a shock. The sensitivity of the pick up can be adjusted and also the amount of shock a dog gets. Tried the spray ones and the sound ones,didnt work for me though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
