PetSafe Basic Bark Control Collar: A Guide to Effective Use

Welcome to our detailed guide on how to use the PetSafe Basic Bark Control Collar effectively. Barking is a natural behavior for dogs, but excessive barking can be a nuisance. This is where the PetSafe Basic Bark Control Collar comes in handy.

Step 1: Understand the Mechanism

The PetSafe Basic Bark Control Collar is designed to detect your dog’s bark using the built-in microphone and deliver a safe, static correction to discourage excessive barking.

Step 2: Proper Fit

Ensure the collar is snug but not too tight on your dog’s neck. It should be worn high on the neck, just under the dog’s jawline.

Step 3: Initial Training

Introduce the collar to your dog during a quiet time. Let your dog wear the collar without correction for a few days to get them used to it.

Step 4: Correcting Excessive Barking

When your dog barks excessively, the collar will emit a static correction. Be consistent with the use of the collar and reward your dog when they remain quiet.

Step 5: Remove the Collar

Remove the collar when your dog is not barking to prevent skin irritation. Remember, this collar is a training tool and should not be worn constantly.

By following these steps and being consistent with training, you can effectively use the PetSafe Basic Bark Control Collar to curb excessive barking in your furry friend.
