    Will you buy a dog training shock collar?
    My dog likes barking at any time, we are so agonizing. I plan to buy a shock collar for my dog. Will it work for a barking dog? Will the collar hurt my dog? I hope it is a good training way. Seller send me the instruction, it seems it is easy to operate. But I want to ensure it is ok for a dog. Do you have any experience?78612850_132325571534787_679037565755457_90537bc4ebb356844b72f0e6e46eb42bab1d870c.jpg 78435456_132325521534792_410971470500462_e16693bfecf33f8ca6d565b58d86ff241ed4530c.jpg

    A bark collar is a better option than a hand controlled *shock* collar. It is very hard to manually control the timing for the bark. Make sure you don't leave it on too long and set the level as low as possible to start and see what is effective. The collars must be snug to be effective. Petsafe makes some good inexpensive models.

    We used a bark collar BUT we were outside with the dogs whenever they had it on. It only took a couple of times for them to understand that bark equaled tingle. Problem was fixed within a day. Now our English Cream Retreiver is looking for ways to get under our fence, although she doesn't run, it's like a game to her. We bought a remote control "shock" collar. The "shock" can be controlled from 0-100. I set it to 25 and put it on my hand - a slight tingle. Then set it to 35 and the tingle was a bit more. Both my wife and youngest daughter (12) were concerned, so I had them hold the pins in their palm and "shocked" them. They both agreed it was startling, but it was only a tingle. Whenever I need to tingle the dog, it has a two beep option. I do that first and if she doesn't move away from the fence she gets the tingle. She doesn't' cry, just jumps and gets away from the fence. This took longer to train than the bark collar, but only 3-days and now she doesn't go near the fence.

    We bought one that's controlled by phone, my wife's youngest has a dog that barks at the back neighbor's dogs when they come out, and she's tearing up the yard, few tingles and she doesn't go by the fence anyone

    Trained my lab with one.

    Only had to shock her twice. Now I put the collar on her and she is a good girl knowing it could happen if she disobeys.

    Her problem was running and not coming when called.

    She barks but she has a strong prey drive and is over protective.

    I am ok with that

    The one I got works from 3000 feet or more, has a setting for bark mode as well as tone, constant shock, momentary shock and 16 different levels.

    We use a citronella spray collar on our great pyre mix. Put it on her before work and she no longer barks at the neighbors outside during the day. Take it off in the afternoon and we correct her barking verbally. She’s a barker for life but not w the collar on.

    I had a great experience using a e-collar, and private lessons with a dog trainer. I think the new e-collars are so much better than the old shock collars. My dog got annoyed at such a low setting that I could not feel it with my bare hand. Good luck!

    I paid to have my dog trained and the bulk of the training is the "shock" collar. The term "shock" is taken out of context because automatically everyone thinks the dog gets shocked by massive electricity and that is NOT the case.

    When you press the button the collar will have a very low voltage arc between the terminals of the collar which interrupts the dogs thought process and snaps them out of the thought pattern they were in when you initiated the shock. You can put your fingers on the 2 terminals and press the button. Mine goes from a setting of 0 (no shock) to 100 all in increments of 1 so a vast range for various dogs. If you have a Mastiff dog you may need much more than for a Dachshund.

    My collars also have a vibrate and ring modes on them which all are great for varying situations.

    Oddball wants to murder anything he notices outside. Whenever someone’s headlights hit our window he starts growling. Took a while to get him to stop going after all the deer when I had him outside.

    I use one I got off of Amazon for my Aussie. I can either beep, vibrate or shock him. There's levels of 1-100 for both vibrate and shock. I've had it for two years and I can count on two hands how many times I've actually had to use the shock. For barking, I use the beep mostly and it's enough to correct him. Dogs are smart and if they get buzzed or shocked after each bark, they'll learn that barking causes something they don't like.

    If your dog is just randomly barking for no reason, then it could be anxiety or acting out if he/she isn't getting enough exercise. If that's the case, a bark collar will be better. If your dog is barking at specific things, even if at everything, then a shock collar will work with a remote. As long as you get one that you can adjust the levels, it wont hurt your dog. Just start low on settings and work your way up as needed until you can effectively correct the behavior that you don't like.

    We have used these for training and have had good success. Our two pups now look forward to the collars because they know they are about to either take a trip or we are going to train. We also put them on when we have visitors to help keep them calm. My wife and I both wore the devices on our arms to feel the sensation to make sure we were okay with it first.

    We had one, our husky would constantly bite our cat and finally drew blood. Only had to shock once, then the beep preceding the shock did the trick. After a few days of beeping, the cat was left alone. Our dog must have thought the cat was magical.

    Then my wife would put it on me... oops, wrong forum.

    A training collar is a great tool, but success with it depends on timing and consistency on part of the trainer. You can get great results, especially working with a dog in the field, but it takes a lot of work just like any training. It’s not a quick fix.

    Bark collars are a little easier, being automatic/voice activated.

    I hope you get the results you’re going for.

    that’s the exact collar that we have for our German Shepard. It was recommended by the trainer we had. She’s a great dog but gets stupid happy excited like a five year old with ADD after eating a bucket of sugar. She still has a lot of puppy in her. We call if her “gotta be good collar”.

    She’s to the the point now that saying “do you want your gotta be good collar?” Will typically calm her down. And if we do put it on her (like when new people are coming over), just hitting the vibrate button is enough to get her back into her well trained mode.

    Seriously speaking, I tried it on my hand first at the lower levels, it’s one hell of a shock. Funny on the package it’s a husky, buddies after employing the collar:

    I use a training collar for my German Shepherd. He is a GD angel when wearing and only needed to use the shocker a few times.

    When in public, the trainer and choker is a necessity due to how aggressive he can be towards other dogs.

    We have shock collars on 2 dogs. The property is too big/ expensive to fence completely. But a single wire around the property and shock collars works really well. I've tried to get my neighbors to use a bark collar on their effin obnoxious dog but they/she thinks it's cruel. Much better to annoy and disturb humans than to control her POS dog.
