PetSafe Standard No Bark Collar
PetSafe Standard No Bark CollarWhen your dog barks, the PetSafe Standard No Bark Dog Collar gives a warning beep and mild correction. Then if he continues to bark, he will receive the warning tone with a slightly stronger correction. This process will continue up through six levels of correction. The PetSafe Standard Anti Bark Collar senses the vibrations in your dog’s throat that happen only during barking. While not at all harmful, the PetSafe Standard No Bark Control Collar is an effective deterrent to excessive barking.

More Dog Training Collar FAQs
1. How do I know which stimulation level is correct?
:Always start with the lowest intensity level and work your way up as needed. You will know when you have found the proper stimulation level when your dog responds to the stimulation with only a mild twitch of the neck, shoulder, head, or perk of the ears. If he yelps upon receiving the stimulation, the intensity level is too high.
2. What is the difference between continuous and momentary stimulation?
Electrical stimulation can be delivered to your dog in one of two ways
:
- Continuous stimulation is a constant period of pulsating stimulation your dog receives until you release the transmitter button. (Most collars feature an automatic shut off, where the continuous stimulation ends after 8 -10 seconds, even if you continue to hold the button down. This prevents you from accidentally over-stimulating your dog.)
- Momentary stimulation (also called “nick” stimulation) is a quick “attention getter” that lasts only for a fraction of a second, regardless of how long you press the button. This stimulation has been described as feeling like an insect bite.
3.. What kind of safety features do these collars have?
Most collars we carry include an automatic shut-off feature, which automatically shuts of the stimulation if the continuous stimulation is being delivered for more than 8 – 10 seconds. There are a few dog training collars that do not offer this feature. Thoroughly review the features of each remote training system before making a decision.
Remote Training Collar FAQs
Remote dog training collars allow you to reinforce commands and correct your dog’s unwanted behaviors from a distance – whether that distance is 20 feet or over a mile for some models
The premise of an electronic collar is that the stimulation serves as a distraction that your dog will find undesirable. By obeying your obedience command or by stopping the undesired behavior, your dog quickly learns to avoid and/or stop the unpleasant stimulus.
2. How do remote trainers work?
All remote trainers contain the same basic components:
a. A handheld remote transmitter
b. Collar receiver
c. Collar probes
The remote transmitter sends a radio signal to a receiver on the collar. The collar receiver then delivers the appropriate stimulation to your dog via a set of two stainless steel collar probes. The probes are positioned on your dog’s neck and are held securely in place by a snug-fitting collar strap. The probes must have direct contact with your dog’s skin in order to function properly.
3. Will the stimulation from a remote trainer hurt my dog?
Electrical stimulation from the collar is intended to distract your dog by delivering an unpleasant but harmless electrical sensation. Some people describe this sensation as feeling like the static shock you receive when walking across a carpeted room in your stocking feet and touching a metal cabinet. Is it unpleasant? Yes. Does it cause you harm? No.
Remote dog training collars provide you with multiple stimulation levels. As a rule, most handlers find they can achieve their desired results using an extremely low level of stimulation, barely even perceptible to humans. Additionally, some remote training systems allow you to condition your dog to associate a vibration or audible tone with the correction, thus eliminating the need for electrical stimulation altogether. Not all remote trainers include a “vibrate-only” or “tone-only” mode. Review the features of each remote trainer when making your selection.
