Hints and Tips No. 4    Getting Your Bark Collar Up and Running

There is nothing more frustrating than getting a new product, and then not being able to get it going in the way you expected.  This can especially apply to bark collars!  Particularly when you (and your neighnbours!) have been sweating on it's arrival to stop your dog barking problem. 

Ninety-nine percent of all the calls or emails we get from customers who cannot get their bark collar going are fitting related.  That's right!  There is rarely any problem with the bark collar itself or the fact the collar is not suitable for the dog.  The main issue is that the collar has not been placed on the dog properly.

All static electric bark collars and spray bark collars that are vibration activated require the collar to be fitted on the dogs neck in an appropriate way that the barking can be detected and in the case of electric collars, give the correction to the dog.  This time of year with many dogs having a thicker undercoat to get through the cold of winter can make it a little harder than when the weather is warmer.

Neils Review

"This is a great all-round bark collar that will work on all dogs from 5kg but best suited to dogs 10kg and above, even those with fairly strong temperaments. 6 automatically adjusting levels make it a breeze to use. The thick heavy duty collar strap makes it especially suited to active, medium and large dogs."      

Item Description

One of the most effective bark controls available. Its larger strap and robust action best suits dogs over 10kgs up to and including larger breeds.

This unit offers the same performance to the PetSafe Advanced model. It is heavier than the Advanced, due to the buckle up strap. This strap makes this bark collar ideal for rugged/active dogs and more durable if other dogs bite collars from it's neck.  

Be warned the genuine SportDog Premium Bark Control Collar comes standard from the manufacturer with the bright orange heavy duty neoprene collar strap and metal buckle. Don't accept resellers who swap red cheaper straps onto this unit!

This unit is vibration activated and automatically adjusts its correction stimulus to suit your dog's barking. It is very fast to act and will usually train your dog to be quiet in 1 to 3 days.

  • Quickly quietens the most determined barkers
  • Compact (51x27x25 mm.) and weighs 120 gms. inc. battery & full length strap

5 out of 5 stars   SportDog SBC 6 is AMAZING

I have a border collie and she was absolutely terrible with constantly barking at car's and motor cycle's going past my house, she would bark at the lawn mower while i was trying to mow and even the nieghbour's kid's riding their bike's around! The sportdog SBC 6 worked the very first day i put it on my dog and even made her listen to me when she was called, if she was going to bark at something. I can now mow my lawn peacefully while my dog lay's back watching. Thankyou so much for this product it has made life so much easier and peaceful. Very impressed with this product and will happily recommend it!

5 out of 5 stars   SportDog Premium Bark Control Collar works fantast

After having trouble with our barking dog disturbing the neighbourhood we purchased a SportDog Premium Bark Control Collar it works fantastically. I would also like to comment on the helpful and prompt service we received. The collar was ordered on the Tuesday afternoon and we received it the very next day, even though we live just outside Noosa. I will certainly recommend Bark Control to anyone. Stephen C, QLD

5 out of 5 stars   SportDog SBC 6

Hi I just wanted to say thank you. I bought the SportDog Premium Bark Control Collar SBC-6 for my German Shepherd and after just 1 day he stopped barking. Even when the collar is off during the day he doesn't bark at all. I was a bit skeptical that it would work but I was amazed with the results. We are a much happier family now and we don't have to put the dog in the garage at night anymore. So thanks again. I should have bought this collar years ago. Jenny M. Qld
