Due to the controversy of other types of training collars, such as the sonic
collar and much debated electric shock collar, the spray bark collar presents
itself as a good solution that isn't as controversial as the others. Before
getting an anti bark spray collar for your loved pet, you should really
understand the principle behind it as well as the differences between the
different models that there are.
The spray bark collar And Its Principle
For owners of dogs who can't seem to be able to control their pet's barking, the
spray bark collar is a good solution that is accepted by all professionals. This
collar works with detectors that can sense when the dog is barking and in turn,
the collar responds by releasing a spray of cintronella that squirts the dog's
face. The spray catches the dog off guard because the dog can see it, smell it,
feel it, and hear it. Due to the strong scent of the spray, the dog gets
distracted and tranquilized since he starts to understand that the spray starts
working on its incessant barking or bad behavior.
The two most popular brands of spray bark collars are Innotek and PetSafe. It is
very much necessary to understand the subtle differences between the existing
models and the brands before opting for the purchase of one. There are a few
factors to consider, for example, your dog's size and personality, as well as
the collar's size, weight, form, range, resistance, and look.
Correlate what you need with the features and options offered by the brand/type
and opt for the one that best suits your requirements better
