Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The MultiVet Anti-Bark Spray Collar is a safe and humane way to train your dog to stop nuisance barking. Each time he barks, the collar releases a harmless scentless spray right in front of his snout. The dog becomes distracted by the sight, sound, and sensation of the spray, and stops barking. He learns to expect the spray, and will instinctively quit excessive barking to avoid it. Use the ergonomically pleasing Anti-Bark Spray Collar in conjunction with dog training to permanently break your pet of his barking habit. It’s a painless and scientifically proven method recommended by leading animal experts. It’s completely safe for all dogs and puppies, and leaves no pain, fear, or side effects. A see-through window lets you monitor the amount of spray left inside. Choose from 2 levels of spray strength. Approved and endorsed by the SPCA. Includes an adjustable collar, long-lasting battery, new deluxe spray device, scentless spray refill, training manual and CD, and protective rubber sleeve.

This review is from: Innotek Deluxe Anti-Bark Spray Collar for Dogs, Citronella Scent (Misc.)

I have had this product for well over a month, and it still works great, so just be aware that the other reviewers might have had faulty products and just needed a return. Maybe their dogs are a little crazy and rough house the collar a bit too much. It is a relatively durable case, but I believe that strong impacts would do some damage to the unit. Some good and bad points now:

- The spray is VERY effective for curbing barking
- Is not sensitive enough for small barks and whining, so this does not solve those problems. If your dog is smart and figures out that quiet barking is not punished (like mine did), you'll still have a problem barker, but just not as loud.
- My dog is not afraid of the collar, but knows to be quiet when it is on
- Make sure you say 'no barking' or 'quiet' every time it sprays if you can. The dog will learn your command as well.

Overall I highly recommend this product for $40. However I do NOT recommend it if you bought it at the $100 that Petsmart wants to steal out of you (though I do love that company). It is simply not a $100 value anti-bark system, more like $40-$50.

1.0 out of 5 stars Effective if it works, March 6, 2010

This review is from: Innotek Deluxe Anti-Bark Spray Collar for Dogs, Citronella Scent (Misc.)

I have a problem with one of my dogs and excessive barking. It is so bad that I have receive anonymous letters from neighbors, a visit from the police and a letter from the county animal control. I purchased this collar in January and it worked very effectively for 2 weeks. The Citronella spray stopped my dog from barking more than once or twice (as opposed to 20 times) and it was great. After 2 weeks, the collar stopped working.

I contacted the manufacturer who asked me to take some trouble shooting steps and, when it still did not work, they authorized the return of the product. The return was at my expense but I did receive a replacement in about 2 weeks. I will say that Innotek's customer service was very good. I received the replacement collar and for 2 weeks it worked perfectly and was effective in stopping the excessive barking.

Unfortunately, once again it has stopped working and will not spray. I am not sure I want a device that I must keep returning and while I do not know if I am just unlucky and received 2 lemons, I am concerned about an endless cycle of returns.

I went on Amazon to return the collar as defective but it cannot be returned as it is designated as "hazardous materials." I may be forced to go through the return process again with Innotek if it can't be returned (or just stuck with the loss of my money).

UPDATE: Amazon promptly responded to my question about the return (or inability to return) of the collar and issued a refund. As always, Amazon's customer service is very good.

4.0 out of 5 stars Silence for a short time, January 9, 2007

This product worked great for a few weeks. Then it stopped working, it just would no longer spray. I thought maybe the battery? Nope! Maybe it got wet, and ruined the sensor? So I bought a new one. Silence for a week then the same thing happened, it just stopped working. I also found a crack in the housing which let the citronella leak out. So again for the limited time that this product physically worked, it was wonderful.
