I’ve always thought that dogs were practically wild animals, and they should be given a great deal of leeway in their behavior.  Nevertheless, my neighbors don’t agree with me.  You see, we reside in a quiet suburban area, and wild behavior is not actually appreciated all that much.  Even barking gets on folk’s nerves, and when I first had my dog I have the cops called on me many times before I realized how simply people got irritated around here.  That’s why I got my dog a dog bark collar.  Although they appear to be a very wicked way to treat an animal, I believed that dog bark collars were better than losing your dog because of too many complaints. 

There are many different kinds of dog bark collars.  Many of them are electrical shock collars which give dogs a shock every time they make too much noise.  Other dog bark collars claim to be more tolerant.  Instead of shocking the dogs, they give them a jolt of citronella every time they bark.  The powerful odour of the citronella stops the dogs from barking temporarily, and if they start again they’ll get another blast in the face.  All these dog bark collar designs appear pretty cruel to me.  Though some dog bark collars are rather worse than others, none of them appear particularly kind.  Nevertheless, I knew I had to get my dog and anti barking collar or else I would lose him.  The police were already threatening. 
When I started looking at dogs bark collars, I realized how many tools there were to coach your dog.  There were invisible fence collars that would essentially train your young dog to not go outside of a certain area without you together with it.  Basically, every time the dog would go outside a certain prearranged fence, The dog bark collars would go off, giving it some sort of unpleasant stimuli.  Either the collar would shock it, squirt it with citronella, or subject it to an intensely high-pitched and aggravating noise.  Either way, the average dog would learn what the bounds were. 

I decided to stick with the basic dog bark collars.  I hadn’t really wished to teach my dog not to bark, but I definitely didn’t want to subject it to even more nonessential lessons.  No bark collars were the minimum that I could get away with, so I determined to go for those.

Another method of preventing dog barking is by the use of DAP (Dog Appeasing Pheromones) which is used as a spray, impregnated collar or plug-in diffuser (similar to an air freshener). DAP is  not a drug and as such it’s a safer alternative to the use of calming drugs. DAP products can be bought online from the DAP-Direct website.
