The invention and proliferation of electronic dog training collars resulted
in a much easier, less time consuming dog training. Those pet owners who find it
tough to impart behavioral training by other means can now enjoy the comforts of
getting their dogs trained with ease in short timeframes, using electronic dog
training collars.

Understanding Electronic Dog Training Collars
Different Electronic Collars
Based on the type of correction stimulus, electric dog training collars can be
categorized into three different types. The three types are electronic, sonic,
and spray.
Electronic Dog Training Collars
The electric collars detect the vibrations caused by dogs' barking and deliver a
mild electrical shock, similar to the static shock that we feel when we handle
fabrics. There are a few methods to this as some products require the owner to
make the correction with the push of a button.
The advantage of this type of training collar is the effectiveness in making the
pet understand his unacceptable behavior. It is also a very easy to use tool.
The challenge that is associated with this type of collar however, is the
ambiguity regarding the usage of static electric shock to train dogs.
Sound Based Collars
Other type of electronic collars use sound instead. These sonic collars emit a
high pitched sound that only dogs can detect and that makes them stop barking.
Irrespective of whether it is to tranquilize him from barking or to contain him
within preset boundaries, these sonic collars prove innovative possibilities in
ways of imparting behavioral training to pets.
Spray Collars
This third type of collars offer a different approach. This collar literally
sprays the dog's muzzle with an annoying scent of citronella whenever the dog
tries to bark while the collar is active. This is considered by some the best
type of electronic collar available, although it requires some extra work, such
as constantly refilling the spray canisters to keep the collar working, and
taking the canister off at night so the dog can rest.
