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.

What age should my dogs be before I can begin using a shock collar on
