SOUND MODE
Sensitivity & Intensity Level 1-7
OPERATING MODES
VIBRATION MODE
Sensitivity & Intensity Level 0-7
STATIC PULSE MODE
Sensitivity & Intensity Level 0-7
Our Anti-Bark Training Collar has a new generation microprocessor sensor
that senses the vibration when your dog starts barking and will not be ac-
tivated by nearby dogs or environmental noises. It works by combining a
warning beep emitting sound with either a vibration and/or a static elec-
tric pulse delivered through the contact points when your dog starts bark-
ing (3 training correction modes). By adjusting the sensitivity and intensity
of each correction mode to one of the seven (7) available levels you can
quickly, gently and effectively achieve the behavior correction, deterring
nuisance barking.
When set at low to medium levels static electric pulse has a reminding yet
not painful effect and most pets learn easily at the lower levels. After a
while the tone and/or vibration of the device is enough to remind to your
pet what has learned.
To further protect your dog the device has an automatic protection mode
to stop correction if it activates 7 times within 1 minute.
As any training tool, static pulse must be used correctly and responsibly.

Insert the small end of the USB cable at the USB entrance of the device as
shown below and plug the other end into any USB port (≤1amp). The dig-
ital Lcd display will turn and blink to indicate that the unit is plugged in
and charging. If not, check that USB port is working. The device will be
fully charged after 2 hours.
Battery life varies and can last up to 14 days depending on the training
modes used (sound, vibration, static) and how often the unit is activated.
Make sure though to charge the device regularly. It is not meant to be
used on a continuous basis as your dog will need a break from training.

How to Use It
After reading the Instruction Manual and charging the battery you must
check that it is operational with the provided test bulb by placing it to the
contact points.
Then, you must properly t the collar to your dog’s neck as follows:
1. Make sure the device is on the off position.
2. Have your dog standing (not sit)
3. Place the device underneath your dog’s neck and ensure the contact
points are on the center and touching his skin.
4. Adjust the collar so that it is snug but not restricting. You should be able
to insert a nger between the collar and your dog’s neck.
5. Slip the loose end of the strap under the attached loop.
6. Allow your dog to wear it few minutes and then recheck the t. Continue
check periodically as your dog becomes more comfortable with it.
7. If it is too long, mark the trim length with a pen, then remove the collar.
Cut the excess and carefully seal the end with a ame.

For the rst day, have your dog wear the collar but don’t turn it on. This
allows your dog to become familiar with it and you to make sure it ts
correctly.
Start with sound only and low or no vibration and shock. The idea is not
to punish your dog but to get his attention. You must carefully observe
his reactions to sound and corrections to properly adjust the device sen-
sitivity and intensity.
It is highly advisable to be present the rst times you use the product.
This is important because some dogs respond better when their owner is
present but mainly because this gives you the opportunity to properly
adjust the device and to combine positive and negative reinforcement,
by giving treats when the dog stops barking.

Caution
• A collar worn for too long or too tight on the dog’s neck may cause skin
damage.
• Your dog’s neck and the Contact Points must be washed regularly.
• Try to reposition the collar on the dog’s neck every 1 to 2 hours.
• If a rash or sore is found, discontinue use of the collar until the skin has
healed.
• Your dog should be at least 6 months old before using the device.
• Do not use this device to train dogs which have tendency of attack.
• Never tie a leash on the collar of the device, it may cause excessive
pressure to dog’s neck.
• If you are using another collar for a leash make sure it does not place
pressure on the collar with the device to avoid injuries.
• The collar must be used only on healthy not pregnant dogs.
• Please take off the collar when dogs go swimming or take shower.
• The device is a training aid, not punishment. Don't let your dog sleep
with it and avoid leaving the collar on the dog for more than 12 hours
per day even on low sensitivity and intensity levels.
• Stay alert: if your dog keeps barking, maybe an emergency needs to be
dealt with.

Sometimes, a dog may begin barking at the vibration and/or the static
correction. If this happens, reassure your dog with a calm voice. As your
dog relaxes and gets a treat for it he will understand that if he becomes
quiet, he will not receive any more corrections. Most dogs will drastically
reduce nuisance barking in few days. At this point you must remember
that the learning process is not complete. Dogs will test the device and
often increase after a couple of weeks their attempts to bark. If this does
occur, remain consistent and do not alter your use of the device. If your
dog is not wearing it he will resume barking, his learning will suffer a set-
back and it will be even more difficult to alter his behavior in the future.
Consistency is very important. Like any learning and behavior altering,
deterring nuisance barking will take time and patience from both you
and your pet. Don’t get discouraged!
