Spray Bark Control Collar

Spray Bark Control Collar

This is the best, most humane bark-busting collar on the market! When the collar's sensors pick up a bark, it sprays citronella in front of your dog's nose, which distracts him from barking. This collar works—it stops nuisance barking in 88% of the dogs tested. Sensors will only pick up barking from the dog wearing the collar. Safe for dogs from 6 to 160 lbs. In black. Collar kit includes adjustable nylon collar with oil reservoir for 25 sprays, 3-oz. (250-spray) filler bottle, 6-volt alkaline battery, training materials, and instructions.

Loved it!, November 17, 2009
By: bjustice

"I have a 6 pound yorkie who barks at everything. It is very loud and sharp and annoying. we put the collar on and it fit very well and didn't weigh his neck down, in fact he doesn't mind wearing it at all. The most imortant part is, "it worked". We very seldom have to put the collar on after only 3 weeks. If he starts to bark we say, "no bark". He stops barking and comes to one of us for a treat. (The directions tell you to do this). I would reccommend this to any one, plus it is not too big or clumsy for a very small dog."

Did not work for us, November 16, 2009
By: Dogslover

"This product did not work for us. My dog realized she could not do a full bark, but could do a low bark and not get sprayed. It also runs out of spray fast and you have to fill it up alot. She would be outside and run out of spray and be barking at night, and I could not get her in. It did stop working all together."

Remarkable Product, September 30, 2009
By: canninelover

"Wish we had found this 4 years ago when we rescued our American Foxhound. She's wonderful but, as all foxhounds, has a melodious LOUD bark. Living rural is definitely a challange with all the wild animals. We tried everything including the "electric collar". We didn't like it because she always put her ears down like she was being punished. We put the citronella collar on, she saw deer and barked once and that was it! Now all we have to do is put the collar on her and not turn it on and she doesn't bark at all when she sees critters. She is so much better even with the collar off. This has been a life saver and now we have more freedom to leave her outside more when we are not home. Thank you, Orvis, for another fine product."

A life saver-LITERALLY, July 30, 2009
By: CathyF

"We rescued 2 smaller dogs from our local shelter in June. It became quickly obvious why "Daisy" had been dumped.........she had most obnoxious, shrill bark I've ever heard. Anything would set her off and once she got started, she would not stop. We were at our wits end and were seriously contemplating returning her to the shelter. I thought about getting one of the shock collars but had used one on another problem barker we had rescued and it made that dog nearly neurotic. I saw this collar in the Orvis catalog when I was ordering her personalized collar and thought I'd give her one last chance to stay in our family. It worked instantly!! Today is her third day wearing it and in the last two hours, I've heard one small bark out of her...and that's with the other dogs trying to steal her toys during their morning romp! So, this collar is TRUELY a life saver....it saved Daisy from having to go back into the AZ animal control system. THANK YOU!!!"

It Works, May 21, 2009
By: beauman08

"We have a Golden Pyrenees rescue dog, 16 months old female. Maggie had a barking issue (a trait of the pyr) when walking & riding in the car. We received the collar on May 12th, she immediately stopped barking the first time she wore it, danced around looking to see where the spray came from and has stopped barking when the collar is on. We have used this walking & traveling in the car. It is humane, no odor from spray, easy to use. We highly recommend this product. It is pricey, but it works. Our neighborhood is happier amd our rides in the car are so peaceful.
Thank you Orvis for this amazing humane product."

"We have a 4 year old miniature American Eskimo and while she is a great dog in many ways her constant, over the top barking was becoming a real problem. My husband owns his own business and sometimes I couldn't even conduct a phone conversation if something outside caught her attention (such as our neighbor getting in his car, a kid walking by, etc.). I bought this collar after accidentally getting the magazine delivered to me. It has worked tremendously! She'll occasionally bark, but it’s only one bark and then she stops. It’s been such a pleasure to have her around and not be constantly correcting her all the time. Thank you, thank you, thank you for a product that really works!"

I wish I had created this product!, December 2, 2007
By: bullydog

"This collar is the best. We have a large American Bulldog and a yard full of deer. He used to bark day and night -- inside and out. As soon as he had one nosefull of citronella, the barking stopped. It is a very safe and humane alternative to other barking collars. Well worth the money."
