Getting Started
Insert the small end of the AC adapter into BarkWise as shown below and plug the other end into an outlet. The blue LED light will turn on to indicate that the unit is plugged in. Bark­wise will be fully charged after 2 hours. The blue LED light will still be turned on but you can now unplug the unit.
When BarkWise is running low on battery and needs to be charged again, the red LED will ash.
Battery life varies between 12-24 hours depending on which features are used (vibration, sound or remote) and how often the unit is activated. Make sure to charge BarkWise daily. This
will also give your dog regular breaks from training.

5. Control panel
1 2 3 4
Bark sensitivity slider
1
Allows you to adjust BarkWise™ sensitivity to barking. This ranges from low to high.
REM (Remote Only or Mic)
2
Choose between having Barkwise™ activate when your dog barks (UP) or only by pushing the button on the included remote (DOWN).
AUD (Audible / Ultrasonic Mode)
3
Use either Ultrasonic mode (UP) or Audible mode (DOWN) for training your dog. Audible mode is useful for hearing the device activate to your dog’s bark, letting you know that the bark sensitivity slider is set correctly.
VIB (Vibration / No Vibration)
4
Select BarkWise™ to vibrate (DOWN) or not vibrate (UP) in response to barking.
6. Put BarkWise™ on your dog
1. Place BarkWise underneath your dog’s neck and ensure the vibration prongs are touching his skin.
2. Adjust the collar strap so that it is snug but not restricting. You should be able to place 1 nger comfortably between the nylon strap and your dog’s neck.
3. Slip the loose end of the strap under the attached loop.
4. After wearing the collar for a short time, recheck to see if it’s tting properly. Continue to do this periodically as your dog becomes more comfortable with wearing it.
5. If the collar length is too long, mark the trim length with a pen, then remove the collar. Cut the excess and carefully seal the frayed end with a ame. Fit the collar to your dog’s neck and tuck in the strap using the provided loop.
Training Your Dog
1. Acclimation Period - For the rst day, have your dog wear BarkWise but don’t turn it on. This allows your dog to become familiar with the weight and feel of it. This also allows you to make sure the collar ts correctly.
2. Begin Training - While not an absolute requirement, it’s helpful for some dogs to begin training on Remote Only mode. Do this by ipping the REM switch on the control panel downward (see the illustration to the left). This means that BarkWise will only activate when you take action by pressing the remote. This is important because:
a. Some dogs respond better when their owner is present b. You can combine activating the collar with a stern com-
mand, and give treats when the dog stops barking
3. Consistency is Key - Just like teaching your dog to sit or roll over, it does take practice. Some bad habits will take more time to break. Stick with it and don’t get discouraged!
