People love their dogs, but unfortunately, their neighbors don’t love their barking as much. The Innotek Bark Collar can help stop barking at innaproppiate hours, like in the middle of the night.

Innotek is a company that produces dog collars, that are appropriate for any dog. There are collars for small dogs, medium dogs, or large dogs. Depending upon your preference, there are two basic types of collar. The most popular one is the one that has sound detectors on it and can sense the vibrations that your dog makes when it barks, and then delivers a small static shock.

The Innotek bark collar has a built in patented system that allows you to tune the intensity of the shock that it delivers, so that it works at a level that your dog is comfortable with. The collar has sevel levels of intensity, and it comes preset at the lowest one, so that the intensity can be increased until the dog stops barking. When this happens, the collar will set itself at that intensity and won’t go up anymore. There are other Innotek bark collars that have even wider range of levels.

By using the collar at the times when your dog is most likely to be a nuisance, you can soon train your dog not to bark – using the collar for more than half an hour or so a day is generally not recommended because a dog that is not allowed to bark at all can become neurotic.

There’s another kind of Innotek bark collar which uses a spraying device that is activated when the dog barks. The type that delivers the static shock is perfectly harmless, but some people object to them. The collars that produce a spray (usually a lemon/citrus smell) instead of a static shock work in the same way except the spray confuses the dog and stops the barking by encouraging the dog’s curiosity about where the smell came from.

Every Innotek bark collar comes with a small instruction manual that will teach you how to train your dog in a safe way that will eliminate excessive barking.

Synopsis: This is an introduction to Innotek bark collars. It talks a bit about the different types of Innotek collars available. The general conclusion is that these collars are very effective at what they do.
