I have a 7 month old blue heeler baby who gets quite lonely when I leave. Now that she has her bark collar she doesn’t vocalize her loneliness so much. I really don’t think she has gone past 3 barks (and the first vibration), at least not while I am around.
I know it is working because I gave her a bath the other day and removed it. She let out a lil excited bark, looked at me, waited for the beep, it didn’t, then she scratched her neck. When she realized it wasn’t on, she let out 2 more excited yelps and started spinning around and rubbing her body on the ground to make sure it wasn’t there. Of course, I started laughing, so she thought it was a game and let out, oh about 10 more barks. That’s when I said Ruby “no” and she’s so smart that worked just like the beep!
Thanks for this tool for training my girl when to use her voice!
