6. Frequently Asked Questions & Answers

Q: Why doesn’t the product work when the dog barks?A: Please first ensure to fit the product snugly, yet loose enough to allow one finger to fit between the strap and your dog’s neck. Some dogs have weak barking, in this case you will need to level up the sensitivity level. Thick coat on the neck area may also have small chance to decrease the sensing from the barking, trim the coat near the area where you place the product.

Q: Why is the product triggered sometimes in a noisy environment though the dog isn’t barking?A: Though we have optimized the barking detection to functionality, some environment noises may have similar frequency of a barking dog, which may potentially activate the product. In this case lowering the sensitivity level can eliminate this.

Q: Can I use the product when there are other dogs playing around?A: Dogs will bark when playing and get excited, for the comfort and safety of your pet, we don’t suggest using this product in such environment.

Most importantly, this product cannot be used on unhealthy or aggressive dogs, and if you are unsure whether this product is appropriate for your pet, please consult your veterinarian ora certified trainer.

Q: Can this product stop my dog’s howl?A: No, this Bark Control Collar is designed to detect the barking only. It cannot detect or stop the howling.

Q: Can I charge this product with any type of charger?A: No, you are suggested to charge this product with charger of 5V output voltage, because charger with output voltage of 9V or 12V may cause damage to the product.
