“In a Tuskegee University study of adult shelter dogs wearing the
PetSafe Bark Control CollarTM for six 30-minute sessions over
two weeks, we detected no long-term adverse effects, and all dogs
dramatically reduced their barking by the second day.”

How the PetSafe Bark Control CollarTM Works
The PetSafe Bark Control CollarTM effectively and humanely stops barking when
it is worn. When the vibration of your dog’s bark triggers the Sensor Probe, a
Static Correction is administered through the Contact Points. The Bark Control
Collar starts with the lowest level of Static Correction and then increases
through 6 levels each time your dog barks within 30 seconds of the previous
bark. If your dog does not bark again within 30 seconds, the Bark Control
Collar will reset itself to the lowest level of Static Correction. Along with each
Static Correction, there will be an audible beep. As an added safety feature, the
Bark Control Collar will automatically shut off for 3 minutes if your dog barks
15 times or more within a 50-second period.
Important:
• DO NOT use the Bark Control Collar with any
additional collars, tags, leashes or other items that
may cause vibration and trigger a false correction.
• Your dog may wear a harness for attaching a leash and/
or tags while using the Bark Control Collar.
• Before playing with your dog, remove the Bark
Control Collar. The activity may cause your dog to
bark, which could lead to him associating the play
with the Static Correction.
• Never leave the Bark Control Collar on for more than
12 consecutive hours.
