Shock Collars - Value For Your Money

Sometimes dog owners just want their dogs to stop barking. Carla, mother of two, has a big Husky named Bronco. The problem is when Bronco barks like he wants to tear the house down. Something had to be done. Carla asked her friends who had similarly big dogs. They recommended shock collars.

A natural habit of dogs, barking, is at odds with many living conditions we have to put up with. Among them, no-bark ordinances enforced in many communities. You will be fined should you violate these ordinances. Throw in the stress and discomfort at having a disobedient dog. That situation does not contribute to good neighborly relationships. Carla wanted fast results from whatever dog training collar she was to purchase. Her work and domestic duties - a full time job and two kids - understandably leaves her with a tight schedule, not enough for training her dog.

Shock, spray, and ultrasonic - these are the popular types of no bark collars. These types release a harmless fluid and a high-pitched tone, respectively. The sound is only irritating to dogs, since it's beyond the human range of hearing. The no bark types trigger when your dog lets of a loud bark. High quality collars are able to tell whether the loud sound was the dog's bark, or just a plane flying low, or a truck pulling in from the curve.

The shock collar appealed to Carla. The shock the dog receives is not painful, only startling, just enough to interrupt continuous barking. She gave the matter much thought, and concluded she need a collar that her dog couldn't break; Bronco was big and playful. She was happy to find out, after a quick online search, that waterproof collars were available, with controls dog's rowdy movements can't tamper with.

The shock collar, to Carla's relief, allows for the amping up of the intensity level of the electric shock; just in case Bronco adapts to the stimulus and barks despite it. Carla enjoys her time with her kids now, more so since Bronco became so behaved, all thanks to shock collars. Bronco is now as tame as a kitten.

Do you have a big dog with a similarly big bark? You can change that with shock collars. Training your dogs with shock collars achieves faster results and brings back the quiet at home you deserve.
