Bark collars are used to curb excessive or nuisance barking by delivering an aversive from the collar the moment the dog begins barking. These bark collars evolved from the early electric collars, which were used to stop and shock hunting dogs who were diverted from their job distractions, such as chasing prey animals, which were not being hunted by the handler or to force the dog to release an animal it had retrieved for the handler. These collars were bulky and unsophisticated in terms of functionality.
Electronic collar manufacturers quickly realized that there are many applications for a bark collar that could help them direct the dog when it was far away or distracted. The popularity of these devices expanded from sporting dog owners to companion dog owners and service dog trainers. Modern developments have seen significant improvement in reliability and sensitivity.

are divided into three types namely: electric current, spray (citronella, lemon or water) and vibration or ultrasonic (a loud noise only the dog can hear). Bark collars can be activated by microphone or vibration, and some of the most advance collars use both sound and vibration to eliminate the possibility of extraneous noises activating a response. Bark collars have two primary features designed to shorten the training phase and promote good behavior.
First, it has a unique patented sensor that provides the most reliable bark detection available. Bark collars use both vibration and sound sensors (dual-detection) to discriminate each bark from other external noises. A static Correction is administered through the Contact Points only if both the vibration from the vocal cords and the sound from the bark match the same criteria. Second, bark collars have a new patent pending Temperament Learning System design that effective across many dogs breeds and their individual barking behaviors.
The Temperament Learning System contains software that tracks the number of correction needed to substantially reduce (and in most cases eliminate) the number of nuisance barks. The bark collar system has 10 levels of Static Correction. It begins with low-level corrections. However, if excessive barking continues the correction intensity will increase with each successive bark until the barking stops. Once the dog has learned to reduce the barking, the initial warning corrections are also reduced. If your dog does not bark within 30 seconds, the bark collar will reset itself. As a build-in safety feature, if your dog barks 15 times or more within a minute and 20 seconds period, the bark collar will automatically shut off for 3 minutes.
