Dog Training or Anti bark Collar


On 15/10/2013 a guy (HP xxxx 8884) call for enquire on anti bark whether it will be able to stop the dog from barking with less effort and effective. I ask the reason why the dogs bark, he mention it likes to bark at passerby/ dogs and charge. The dog is a Shetland and is only 7month.

When he came to pickup the bark collar, I told him that this problem can be solve by training as it is only 7 month old, why he choose to use the anti bark collar? As what he claim the dog has already gone thru 8 days Puppy training and presently he is still under going a "life skill obedience",  which  in total he paid more then $1000 for the 2 courses and he do no wish to train his dog again. I try to understand more from him, he told me the trainer told him to use treats to divert the barking problem! It still don't work!

When I search thru the web of the dogs trainer and find out more. the gimmick as follows:
- training near the owner place (Bukit  Panjang)
- having a small class (2pax )so that it has better concentration in small group
- specialize in certain dog's breed training
- trainer dog is in the media and competition

My blessing to him is good luck and hope he and his dog will benefit from what he paid for!


The above reminds me of another case, on 22/12/2012 which the owner Kim (HP xxxx 7361) owner of a JRT has bought an anti bark collar for her 5 years old dog. On purchasing the bark collar as usual the owner knew I'm a dog trainer and being skeptical on my professionalism, she started to ask me about some of the dog's behaviors problem and how I train the dogs. After explaining to her and by gain her trust she review that her dog was trained before during puppy!

She do not trust any dogs trainer after the bad experience! The trainer slap her puppy JRT during the training  and claim that it is the usual method of training but I told her couldn't be,  this guy was interview lately by newspaper that he is a dog behaviorist in Singapore like Cesar Millan  in National Geographic!

The dog trainer is the same guy that train a puppy retriever from my web under  http://www.dr-dogs.com/hometraining/ No definite answer and follow up on the training  but only know how to sell anti bark collar!

Is No Surprise that this trainer work together with pet shop(chain shop) and what do shop do? selling!
What we did like swim this guy follows but till the end he charge the customers for this service, now he is not training the dogs by himself, to make thing worst every month there is a new class going on!

God bless the dog's owner good luck to you, if you found these kind of trainer(S)!



On 04/11/2013 (HP xxxx 3205) wife call on anti bark collar for her 4month old husky! Told the wife that the collar will only work for excessive barking NOT for howling and whine! I understand the puppy need to go thru a proper puppy training as these owner are new to keep puppy but to save cost they choose to buy dog anti bark collar! I still gave them some tips but not all as they are purchasing a product and my responsibility is to gave them a product training on how to use it safely on their dog/ pup.

It works for barking and after a few days the hubby call and request the device to correct the puppy when it howling and whine and ask for more tips on how to train their puppy! If is not fair that they are buying a product but not paying for a service! Already inform the wife  the collar don't work for 
howling and whine but only for excessive barking!

Some people are taking advantage!

CUSTOM Anti Bark Collar


 CUSTOM Anti Bark Collar


Anti bark collar that helps many dog's owner solving their problems from complaints. Some already received warning/ complaints from lawyer, HDB, building management, neighbours... on their dog barking excessively non stop or dog bark and charge at passer by or other dog!

How the device works? It  has 2 in 1 function beep correction or zap correction. Unlike in the market anti bark collar only comes with one function beep or vibrate or spray or zap and is only available off the shelve where owner will purchase and use at their own risk without any product knowledge or training!

With product training nothing goes wrong unless is human error! The step by step training on how to apply to your dog and the function of the device by a professional dog trainer, is to correct the dog's behaviors and gradually remove by not to rely on the collar anymore.

Why some owner think it is inhumane to use anti bark collar on dogs?
- They hear to many thing in the forum and from friend but are these information real or whether these people are getting the right product and apply correctly on their dogs or these message is pass down by others?
- For some people saying is easy, some owners don't face the problem and stress you face like complaints. If problem are not solve! what is the last resource? de voice it or give up and re home your dog ? Is it more inhumane and can the problem being solve? can the person that said inhumane take over your dog and help you solve the problem?

** every product will have a risk without proper care and handling or understand on how to use.
    " a knife is for you to cut fruits, vegetable or meats but if you are going to misuse it by using it to
     rob or kill a person" who to blame? 

How these collar works for some:
- beep when dog barking to divert their attention
- vibrate when dog barking, dog will feel that something is moving from their neck
- spray when dog barking a smell will be release to divert (high cost need to buy battery and spray)
- zap when dog barking release a small static current so that feel it and respond.

** CUSTOM anti bark collar battery is easy available in the market and is ranging from $3.50 to $8.00 where else for some is $20.00 or more.

Which are the most effective result?
For beep, vibrate & spray the dog will immune to it after a period of time and barking will still continue. Zap is the most effective but one important factor owner must know, how is the function of the device? Some Zap collar will keep on zapping the dog with increase voltage and event when there is a false detection from the bark or sound!

With CUSTOM anti bark collar is SAFE the voltage is the same and lower when battery is weaker. It will not Zap the dog immediately unlike others it will warn them first. Owner will start with a step by step procedure that will be taught by us, after some questions being ask about the dog's behaviors, breed, age...etc . Some of the best result is by wearing the device without any beep or zap function ON, the dog stop barking!

** Buy a product without brand or training is like try an error at your DOG'S RISK!
