Review on ๐Ÿถ Comfortable DOG CARE Automatic Bark Collar with Beep, Vibration, Shock Modes - Highly Effective and Humane Dog Shock Collar, 5 Adjustable Sensitivity Levels, No Remote by Andrea Hemphill

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Save reason and humane technology

I have a German shepherd, our problem child, who was labeled an annoying dog by the city because of barking. Our backyard shares a fence line with 8 other dead end dogs so the barking resonates around the neighborhood. He barked all day from 7am but we only let him out for potty breaks which restricted his exercise and love of the outdoors. I've had stun collars before but he stood out of range to drain the battery which only lasted a couple of hours a day. Or he could break the collars of others. Another one I tried worked when other dogs barked or their dog tags jingled. He knows from previous collars that the beep is a warning and then he gets electrocuted. I don't like using the shock method so I was very happy that this collar has a vibration mode, but it can be used as a 'static' mode in a pinch. I also like the smart feature that automatically increases the intensity level based on their behavior. Also, I found that I have a power saving mode and don't have to worry if I forget to charge it like some brands do. I had company after he held her for 10 minutes. I heard 1 bark as the car pulled up, he didn't bark at the doorbell either. It was the lowest vibration level. He also didn't bark at a neighbor who was plowing through a cul-de-sac on a 4-wheeler, which would normally have elicited a reaction. The next day I heard no more than 1 bark as the neighbors let their dogs out. I'm glad he beeps enough to let us know if anyone's here, but not the barking ballad that used to be. The collar is made of soft material, the detail isn't as big as I thought from the photos and it's light. It also comes with removable rubber tips on the pins, so it's more comfortable than plain metal but can be removed for punch mode. As long as you check the collar throughout the day and don't tighten it so much that it digs into your skin and don't leave it on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, you shouldn't have a problem with it damaging or irritating your throat of your dog, but that is the owner's common sense, not the fault of the collars, as I have seen some people's reports. I even tried the modes on my arm before putting them on my dog because I wouldn't put anything on him that I didn't want them to do to me. So far this collar has kept me from worrying about my dog being severely scolded, about city/neighbor complaints, about being able to sleep after 6am on my day off and being able to open the door what people frightened. Thank you!
