What to Expect During Use
Important: Do not leave your dog alone the first few times he receives a correction.
Place the collar properly on your dog and wait nearby until he barks. Most dogs will understand very quickly
that the collar is disrupting their urge to bark and will relax and stop barking. Because the static correction may
be surprising or startling at first, some dogs may bark more at the initial correction.
On rare occasions, a dog may begin barking at the correction. If this happens, reassure your dog with a
calm voice. As your dog relaxes, he will understand that if he becomes quiet, he will not receive any more
static corrections. The number of dogs that have this reaction typically will only have it the first time they
wear the bark collar.
You should notice a reduction in your dog’s barking within the first couple of days that he wears the bark
collar. At this point, it is important to remember the learning process is still not complete. Dogs will “test” this
new learning experience and may increase their attempts to bark. This usually occurs during the second
week a dog wears the bark collar. If this does occur, remain consistent and do not alter your use of the bark
collar. You must place the bark collar on your dog in every situation when you expect him to be quiet. If your
dog is not wearing the bark collar, he may resume barking and his learning will suffer a setback.
