Guidance On Citronella No-Bark Collars
I have a client who has just adopted a dog. The dog is adjusting to its new apartment, but is barking a bit when the owner leaves. A friend of hers has lent a citronella collar for her to try.
My query is: Is there any wellness concerns with making use of the collar in terms of the spray finding in the eyes or lungs?
I would love to hear about peoples experiences with the collars no matter whether they are negative or good.
Thank you in advance!!

Dear RD:
They have a tendency to jam up. Not to mention run out of spray. And – though it almost certainly will not kill the dog – who knows what spraying that stuff in their eyes and nose will do over an extended-term period of time.
Ideally, the dog would only want to be sprayed after or twice and then he’d learn to never ever bark although wearing the collar. But absolutely everyone I know seems to go by means of the refill spray bottles like a worm eats by way of a discarded balogna sandwich. And this would recommend that the correction from the spray is only motivational adequate to get the dog to cease the current exhibition of the behavior, but is not motivational sufficient to make him keep in mind to not do it later.
I suggest the Tri-Tronics Bark Limiter. It is a quality product (it gives the dog a mild shock when he barks) and it performs very well. Try an internet search on google.com.
Great luck,
Adam
P.S. If you’ve currently got the Citronella collar… go ahead and try it and see if it performs for you. It is not going to kill the dog overnight. -) And you might just get lucky and discover that a single or two sprays will be all that you require to curb the behavior… if your dog has a pretty soft temperament to start with.
That is all for now, folks!
