immediately applying painful stimulus. At each step, your dog gets to choose whether it's
worth the increasing pain to bark again. We have found this technique of progressively
increasing sound and shock is not only more humane, it is more EFFECTIVE in breaking
the barking habit than conventional shocking bark control collars.
K9K-914 bark collar can be adjusted to control the sensitivity of the voice, according to
the size of dogs barking.
Caution Notes:
1. Do not allow your dog to chew this collar. You should also attempt to minimize
scratching or clawing at the casing.
2. This device is made up of plastic and electronic components that are not
digestible. Consult your local vet if your dog swallows any part of this product.
3. The collar is not intended for use as a restraining collar. If you are using a leash,
use it with a separate restraining type of collar.
4. Although the Anti-bark Collar's microprocessor is designed to differentiate your
dog's individual bark from stray environmental noises, the unit may occasionally
be activated by other vibrations or sounds.
5. This dog collar is not waterproof!
If the unit is falsely triggered by excessive scratching, shaking of the head or rolling on
the ground, we suggest adjusting the collar tighter and try using the different size prongs.
The collar is triggered by a small hole on the back of the collar and sometimes the collar
is too loose and can be triggered randomly.
FAQ
•
What is a shock collar?
◦
The premise of an electronic collar is that the stimulation serves as a distraction that your
dog will find undesirable. By obeying your obedience command or by stopping the
undesired behavior, your dog quickly learns to avoid and/or stop the unpleasant stimulus.
•
How do shock collars work?
◦
The collar receiver delivers the appropriate stimulation to your dog via a set of two
stainless steel collar probes. The probes are positioned on your dog's neck and are held
securely in place by a snug-fitting collar strap. The probes must have direct contact with
your dog's skin in order to function properly.
•
Will the stimulation from the shock collar hurt my dog?
◦
Electrical stimulation from the collar is intended to distract your dog by delivering an
unpleasant but harmless electrical sensation. Some people describe this sensation as
feeling like the static shock you receive when walking across a carpeted room in your
stocking feet and touching a metal cabinet. Is it unpleasant? Yes. Does it cause you harm?
No.
◦
Training collars provide you with multiple stimulation levels. As a rule, most handlers find
they can achieve their desired results using an extremely low level of stimulation, barely
even perceptible to humans. Additionally, some remote training systems allow you to
condition your dog to associate a vibration or audible tone with the correction, thus
eliminating the need for electrical stimulation altogether.
•
How do I know which stimulation level is correct?
◦
Always start with the lowest intensity level and work your way up as needed. You will know
when you have found the proper stimulation level when your dog responds to the
stimulation with only a mild twitch of the neck, shoulder, head, or perk of the ears. If he
yelps upon receiving the stimulation, the intensity level is too high.
•
What kind of safety features do these collars have?
◦
To protect the dog, if the continuous stimulus reaches the 7 levels, then the collar will stop
working for 1 minute and the red LED light will begin to flash.
