Best Bark Collars for 2020

When it comes to training your dog, there are a lot of techniques that you can apply to make your dog a disciplined one. You can practically teach them anything from following your commands to doing some of the things on their own, which is rather fascinating. But what isn’t is when they reach a certain age and start to bark. And a lot! Some dogs are such that they tend to bark at anything and everything they see. It eventually starts to get annoying, not just for you, but for your neighbors as well. No one wants their dog to bark into the night, and then have the neighbor shout at them the next morning. Is there any way to train your fluff-boy for that and minimize the barking? Yes. The answer is bark collars!

Bark collar is a convenient device that you can put around your dog’s neck like you do with a regular collar. But a bark collar is designed to bark train your dog. It goes off as soon as your dog starts barking out loud, and inflicts a vibration or a small shock on your dog, to let him know that he is not allowed to behave in such a way.

Here we have listed some of the best bark collars for 2020 available in the market, so that you can chose easily without having to look further

1. TBI Bark Pro V3 Bark Collar

This is one of the most efficient bark collars in the market today. Even though it may not have an aesthetic look, it provides some of the best features. The V3 offers three different training modes- beep, vibrate, and shock. You can choose from anyone of them, or even a combination of them, depending on the size of your dog. This collar can used for dogs ranging from 10 lbs to 100 lbs. They also have false triggers protection technology, which prevents your dog from getting shocked even if he has not made a sound. This usually happens with many collars that they go off even when another dog is barking, or even if it catches any other sound or movement. But this won’t happen with the V3. It is also IPx7 waterproof. This means that you do not have to worry about taking your dog out for a walk on a rainy day. One major feature of the Bar Pro V3 is that it can run for up to14 days on a single charge.

2. TBI Bark Collar V7 Pro

Another great collar from TBI! The Bark Collar V7 Pro is a major upgrade to the V3, which already had a lot of great features. The new V7 pro comes with great ergonomic design, which would look super-fine on your buddy. It offers 2 training modes, vibration and beep mode, lacking the shock mode. But it houses a lot of other great features. It allows you to adjust the sensitivity level of the vibration with five different level settings. The reason it lacks the shock mode is that this collar is intended for training small to medium dogs that are between 8 and 70 lbs. A unique feature that it offers is the AI voice recognition. It contains more than 5000 dog voices in its database. As soon as you put it on your dog and it starts barking. The collar will match the voice up with one of the voices on the database. This way the collar will only go off when your dog barks. Going a step ahead on the battery life of the V3, the V7 Pro can go on up to 15 days on a single charge. It comes with two different straps, both of them coated with reflectors, so that you can easily spot your dog in a dark place.

3. PetSafe Basic Bark Control

The PetSafe Basic bark Control is one of the best bark control collar in a budget. This collar can easily be used for any dog that is 8 lbs and above, which is a wide range and can fit almost any size of dogs. It comes with 6 levels of static intensity that can be adjusted according to the size of your dog. But what if you do not know what level would perfect for your dog? No problem. The Basic Bark Control comes with a progressive correction feature that automatically adjusts the static intensity depending on the frequency and intensity of the dog’s barking. Another really cool feature is that it houses a vibration sensor that helps in preventing false triggers by detecting the vibration of your dog’s vocal cords. It also comes with a low battery indicator to let you know when it’s time for a charge.

4. Garmin Bark Limiter Deluxe

The last one on the list is the amazing Garmin Bark Limiter Deluxe. This is a collar that goes lengths in features. And the design is like no other collar. It comes in a sleek black colour with silver metal clamps. Now this would look GOOD on your dog. It comes with bark differentiating technology that allows it to go off only when your dog barks, detecting the vibrations from your dog’s throat. It also offers Autorise technology that starts the static intensity from the lowest level and gradually increases based on your dog’s barks. This collar fits any and all dogs of all sizes, as well as different thicknesses of coatings. Another amazing feature it offers is the bark odometer. This counts the number of barks and adjusts the efficiency accordingly. And last but not the least, this collar comes with a rechargeable Li-ion battery that can go on up to 3 months with a single charge. But the Garmin is on the higher side of the budget, considering the features it provides.
