Train That Dog!

Everyone who owns a dog should make sure they have taken the time to train their dog properly. A well trained dog will not scare guests or jump on them without a reason. But most of all, it shouldn’t bark loudly and endlessly all day long. Excessive barking can cause you problems with your family or your neighbors.

Even the owner of the dog might find that it’s impossible to concentrate on a task or enjoy a movie if the dog keeps barking; this situation calls for a citronella bark collar.

What Is It?

The citronella bark collar is becoming popular among dog lovers. It is an excellent choice for people who are looking for an anti bark collar that doesn’t involve pain or electrical shocks as a method for teaching dogs not to bark. This collar’s mode of operation doesn’t create any pain or discomfort for the dog at all. It operates with a small dose of citronella spray that’s shot right in front of your dog’s nose.

Once the dog detects the smell of citronella with its highly developed sense of smell, it will instinctively try to figure out what is going on. Because the attention of the dog will be diverted from the object that it was barking at to this new, strange smell, the barking will stop while the dog “investigates” what happened.

After a while, the dog will make the connection and realize that this strange smell appears every time barking takes place. The smell won’t hurt the dog, of course, yet the dog will know that the only way to keep that smell away is by not barking when not necessary. This collar has been selling well because it’s harmless and painless for dogs. This “gentle” aspect of the collar, combined with its effectiveness is what makes the collar so liked by dog owners.

The citronella bark collar can be found in almost every pet supply store, among other types of anti bark collars. A similar collar, which is also becoming popular among dog lovers, is the ultrasound collar. It’s yet another collar that won’t hurt your dog, but instead of spraying your dog’s nose with citronella, it will emit a high pitched sound that only dogs can hear.

The reason why manufacturers selected a sound so high pitched that humans can’t hear it is so that you don’t have to put up with it in addition to the barking of your dog. Otherwise, it would be even more difficult to be in the presence of the dog.

The citronella bark collar is a terrific investment for any dog owner who wants to get their dog to stop all that unwanted barking
