Product Description
Helps stop excessive barking the safe and humane way! A dog may be man's best friend, but continuous excessive barking can certainly test that friendship. In fact, many towns have disturbance laws against loud, prolonged noise, such as that created by barking dogs. Many owners have tried surgical remedies. Not only is this expensive, but it completely and permanently eliminates a dog's natural ability to bark. Spray Control Anti-Bark Collars are an inexpensive, humane, but effective solution to excessive barking. How it works: The Spray Control Anti-Bark Collar is simple to operate. Place the battery in the receiver collar and attach it around your dog's neck. When your dog barks, a burst of all-natural citronella spray is emitted, which dogs find bothersome to their highly developed olfactory sense of smell. While not harmful, it is a sufficient deterrent to excessive barking. Exclusive features: Uses a burst of all-natural citronella spray to deter barking For dogs of all sizes and temperaments Safe, harmless, and effective Lifetime warranty System includes: Spray control receiver and collar Citronella spray refill Battery Operations manual Directions for use: Place the spray device on a flat surface with the fill port facing up. Turn the spray can upside down, insert the nozzle into the fill port, grasp the device and using firm pressure push down on the can and hold for 15 seconds. Repeat and hold for an additional 5 seconds to fully fill the reservoir. When completely fi

We are very happy with the citronella bark collars. We have three dogs, all are terriers and they can get into a bark-fest. These collars have worked wonders, and are truly humane-- they work without pain. I wouldn't use one of the shock collars. They are not "humane"- they shock and they hurt! If you don't believe me, put it on your own neck and give it a try. I have seen dogs with burns on their necks from those. (As an aside, yes, I tried this citronella collar too. I let it spray me full in the face. Not pleasant, but not painful.) If you love your dog, try this method. BTW, don't buy the expensive replacement batteries here. They are a standard size and can be obtained at any Walgreens, Target, etc for around $3.
 Dog smells like Citronella... March 11, 2005

Unfortunately, the collar didn't do anything for our dog. I've tried the collar multiple times (went thru the refill can already), but she is very happy to just be barking away. The only effects I can figure out in our case is that we are out $80, and the dog smells like Citronella.
On the positive side, the device has been pretty durable and sits on the dog well. Citronella just didn't work for us.
 very effective, but might not work for very challenging dogs June 28, 2005

This collar worked great for my smart and trainable long-haired German Shepherd -- effectively re-trained her barking behavior, and we quickly got to the point where she didn't need it any more. I also loaned it to a friend with a very spirited Golden Retriever, and it has worked well for their dog, although she continues to need to wear it most of the time even after a year. My mother tried it with her keeshonds, who are the most stubborn dogs I've ever met, and it really didn't work with them, even when she made adjustments for their thick fur. Of course, those dogs are pretty behaviorally challenging, and a strong shock-collar has only been moderately effective for them. So ... for a spirited but reasonably compliant dog, it has seemed to work well, but for more stubborn dogs, the barking challenge may go on and on.
 Didn't work for my Weim January 3, 2006

This may be a great product for some, but it didn't work for us. I put the collar on my barks-a-lot 1 year old puppy and within minutes he barked -- the collar prayed the citronella and the dog was confused, he barked at the mist and collar went off again. This continued, followed by much coughing and gagging. At the time, I was dealing with HORRIBLE morning sickness coupled with allergies and found that after the citronella was sprayed all over the house, I was running for the bathroom getting sick from the smell. Later that afternoon, I went to pet my puppy as he was being a good boy. I scratched the side of his neck under his ear (favorite spot) and thought it should be far enough away from the sensors but that still triggered the collar again and I got sprayed in the face. After that I spent the rest of the day sick in bed :( Love that morning sickness! Later in the evening, the puppy got down on his favorite rug, rolled around and the collar went off, he got up and shook after a nap flopping his hears and the collar went off. After that, the puppy scratched his ear with his hind foot and the collar went off again. That night... mommy took his collar off -- forever. The puppy was happy and mommy felt better :)
Food for thought. Our dog trainer was very concerned that we had chosen a "bark collar." She says it's better to just have a remote operated training collar that you control. You want your dog to give at least one warning bark in case there is something wrong (intruder/danger). After all there is a reason dogs bark, to communicate. With a remote operated collar, you can control the EXCESSIVE barking. I'm buying one of those remote shock collars now. Tried one on myself, not much more than a static shock you get from your clothes in the winter.

I've had my dog for almost 3 years now and I will admit he's not very social, especially to other dogs. I would always dread taking him for walks because he would just make SUCH a ruckus. He would back and scream bloody murder if even the dog was on the other side of the street. Well imagine this 6 o'clock in the morning when the whole neighborhood is asleep. I'm sure you could imagine the embarrasement. Well I got this collar last week and I swear it's been a miracle. I'm kicking myself in the a## for not buying this collar earlier.
The first time he barked, he was startled out of his mind. The second time, same reaction. The third time, he just barked once, then kept quiet once the spray went off. Now he doesn't even bark. You could tell he wants to, but just knows the consequences. Words can't explain how thrilled I am to have purchased this collar. Now I'm saving up to purchase the one with the remote. That way I can use it when I get home and he's screaching, waking up the neighborhood, and announcing my arrival.
One thing to keep in mind is that this collar does not work for high pitched screaching like my dog does when I get home. Hence the reason for buying the one with the remote. Oh, and for those wondering if it will work on your small dogs, it will. My dog is a chihuahua/pomeranian mix.
