How to pick the right spray bark collar for your dog   by Sarah Martine

Every pet owner knows that an out of control and unruly dog can drive both them and their neighbors insane, especially if they are over enthusiastic barkers. If you are having difficulties with your pet, then it is recommended that you first try the many available obedience-training techniques to get them to listen and obey your commands. If this fails then you may want to consider a form of bark collar control to keep them in line; there are two popular versions of this, the electric collar and the spray bark collar though many find the electric variety to be less humane.

Using a spray bark collar

If this is the first time you have heard of this bark control collar, it is basically a small lightweight Dog Collar with a tiny box attached to it holding an amount of liquid fragrance. When your dog becomes overly enthusiastic or acts out of control the collar will deliver a sudden spray of this mixture, which puts your dog into an instant state of brief discomfort. This newer form of dog barking control is much more dog friendly and humane when compared to the other alternatives, such as the electric release collars. The liquid spray is made from an extract of lemon mixed with water and called ‘citronella’, because dogs have such sensitive noses that this mix causes them to immediately repel on impact.

If you are considering using this type of training tool, then you have a choice of 2 versions each with their own unique advantages. There is the automatic spray collar that uses a number of built in sensors to pick up the vibrations and sound coming from your dog, after a certain amount of barking has passed a short sharp spray of citronella will be released directly at your dogs muzzle. The second type of citronella bark collar uses a hand held remote control unit to trigger the release of spray from the dog collar, giving the owner more control over the bark training.

The automatic control spray bark collar is ideal for anyone who spends a lot of time away from home, as they don’t need to be around to train the dog not to bark. On the other hand the manual release system is prefect for owners who want to use the collar to do extra training as well as bark control. To help give you a better idea of the different type of spray bark collars currently available in pet stores and online, here is a description of one of the more popular brands available.

*Pet Safe Deluxe spray bark collar – This has been called one of the smallest and most lightweight forms of spray bark collars on the market. It is built using nano technology and has a special adjustable 28-inch quick fit and release buckle for fast wearing and removal on all Types Of Dog breed. As with most spray bark collars available today, this one use an organic all natural mix of citronella; it also uses a clever bark recognizing system that records and detects when your dog is barking so that it only releases a spray to your dogs bark.
