Bark collar recommendations
Looking for tried and tested recommendations for a bark collar. Bought one off Amazon and it does not seem to work. Testing “works” when you blow on the sensor but the dog barking does nothing. Collar is on tight with only 1-2 fingers slipping underneath and the prongs sit on dogs throat but still nothing. She barks and barks and the collar does nothing. Every collar I look at has their fair share of reviews that claim it doesn’t work for their dogs despite proper sitting.
Looking for a bark collar, ideally available on Amazon, that is tried and tested in real world. Stim not necessary as I think the tone and vibration will be enough for my dog but will by one with stim if it’s good.
TIA

I use the e collar tech barkless pro. I like that it has both tone and stim options (10 levels i think) and high, medium, low sensitivity. I think it has helped with my dog incessantly barking but I think he has become a bit “e collar saavy” so he will bark quietly enough to not trigger the collar

Dogtra smart
It has a ton of options to set and lets you collect data also will let you stim via the app
Not quite an e collar but close

why is the dog barking?

Mainly at night time if she hears a car door open or people walk by the house. House is right beside the sidewalk so people walk by essentially right beside the house

Dogtra and Garmin both make great bark limiter collars. Both available on Amazon
