I have a 2 yr old male Catahoula that barks a lot at night. However, he is supposed to bark when treeing a coon or baying a hog. If a bark collar is applicable in this situation, how best to use it?

PS: I checked your Tritronics Q&A and did not find a situation like this. Thank you in advance

Cindy Cindy's Answer:
Dogs quickly learn when the collar is on and when they are allowed to bark. I would use the Tritronics Bark Limiter for any nuisance barking, just don’t put it on him when you are hunting.



My dogs do protection work (where they are expected to bark) and I use the bark collar for keeping them quiet when they are in our fenced yard. It doesn’t affect them at all in their work.
