If your dog is trying to alert you to something, it is unrealistic and unfair to discourage it from barking; this can have perilous consequences. A Citronella Bark Collar is the most effective and humane solution to stop diagnosed problem barking, along with training.
You want to know how to stop seemingly continual dog barking if you are dealing with an uncontrolled and excessively barking dog. It’s vital to know the facts surrounding the problem before deciding on a solution.
A dog does not bark without reason. You want to determine if the barking is excessive, and if it is, why? Certain breeds of dogs have a propensity to bark more than others but that alone does not answer the questions. Barking could just be vocalizing hunger, or asking for some needed exercise or a bathroom break. Attention-getting barking arises from internal distress. Barking intended to sound an alert arises from a passing person, other dog or vehicle as the case may be.
Barking that starts after you are gone for 20 minutes or so and continues incessantly could be separation anxiety, a psychological condition that requires some extra attention. The family comprises the dog's pack. Expect your dog to bark and maybe not stop barking if left alone for long periods of time.
Anxiety stress is not pleasant for your pet and homeopathic remedies to reduce stress and anxiety while promoting relaxation are available to help in the solution.
Training And Technology Perfect Together!
The best news of all is if, after careful evaluation, there are indications that the problem is a dog talking back in a dominance tug-of-war for authority then training to control dominance is necessary, but it does not involve physical punishment. Along with humane and proper training methods and behavior management products, the situation is solvable with citronella technology, an vital development in canine behavior management solutions.
Most Humane and Effective Nuisance Barking Solution is a Citronella Bark Collar
A Citronella Bark Collar uses technology to deliver a harmless burst of citronella spray to interrupt your dog's barking.
Used by trainers with fantastic success.
“It can be used to either interrupt behaviors or to act as a deterrent to discourage behaviors, all without causing the dog pain." -Suzanne Hetts, Ph.D. Certified Applied Animal Behaviorist, Animal Behavior Associates, Inc., Littleton, CO
“I've used it with fantastic success with several of my clients' dogs. Companion dog owners who would never accept any other type of anti-bark collar have no qualms about using yours." -Terry D. Morrow, Trainer
Better Because…
Ultra-sonic collars are not as severe as the pain of electrical shock; but, behavior experts report that they have 25% the success rate as with the Citronella Bark Collar.
Shock collars are inappropriate and attempt to reduce barking with pain, are less effective and may increase anxiety and aggression, potentially making behavior problems worse.
The Citronella Bark Collar spray works with four of your dog's five senses; he hears it, sees it, feels it and smells it. Citronella is a unique scent, nonoffensive to humans, which most dogs don't normally encounter so unusual enough to distract the dog from whatever he's barking at.
