What to Expect During Use of the
Little Dog Deluxe Spray Bark Control Collar
Important: Do not leave your dog alone the first few times he wears the Bark Control Collar.
Place the Bark Control Collar properly on your dog and wait nearby until he barks. Most
dogs will understand very quickly that the Bark Control Collar is disrupting their urge to
bark and will relax and stop barking. Because the burst of Unscented Spray from the Bark
Control Collar may be surprising or startling at first, some dogs may bark more at the initial
correction.
On rare occasions, a dog may get into a bark-spray-bark-spray cycle. If this happens,
reassure your dog with calm, soothing tones. As your dog relaxes, he will understand that if
he becomes quiet, he will not receive any more spray bursts. The small minority of dogs that
have this reaction should only have it the first time they wear the Bark Control Collar.
You should notice a reduction in your dog’s barking within the first couple of days that he
wears the Bark Control Collar. At this point, it is important to remember the learning process
is still not complete. Dogs will “test” this new learning experience and will increase their
attempts to bark. This usually occurs during the second week a dog wears the Bark Control
Collar. If this does occur, remain consistent and do not alter your use of the Bark Control
Collar. You must place the Bark Control Collar on your dog in every situation when you expect
him to be quiet. If your dog is not wearing the Bark Control Collar, he may resume barking
and his learning would suffer a setback.
