does this model have a bark controller?

No, but you can certainly do it with the remote. To me, this is one of the best collars on the market, well worth the money. I have accomplished so much with this collar, the features are wonderful and it charges very quickly. I had a bark collar and gave it away after the first time...I hated it. I would much rather use this when I need it, as I need it. You can not go wrong with this collar.

It does not have bark control, but you can make manual corrections for any behavior you do not want your dog to do.

It's not a bark collar....trust me, I wish it was a combo unit but as a shock/ vibrate collar, it hasn't failed me one bit. Good luck

Yes. I have two dogs. I numbered their collars 1 & 2 so I wouldn't get confused. Just set your transmitter to the number of the dog who is misbehaving and then push one of the 3 buttons. When I first got the dog trainer I accidentally shocked the wrong dog. He wouldn't have anything to do with me for awhile. Lol. The Aetertek works wonders. My dogs would bark at the neighbors every single time they would see them coming and going. It drove us all nuts. Now I can be out in the yard with my dogs and it's peaceful. No more senseless barking. I hope I helped.

I don't use it anymore. On 'bark mode' it was shocking my dog for no reason. Tried to contact Aetertek Customer Service for replacement and they never replied to me. I wouldn't buy their products.

Do not buy it. I bought two and they did not work on our Havenses. They just look at them and continue to bark.

Yes, the meter has a feature that allows it to "lock" on the highest sound level during the measurement period. However, I'm not sure it measures low enough to accurately measure a dog barking. Unless it is, indeed, very loud.

there is no automatic bark control on this collar. I think you'd have to actually get a bark collar for that. My neighbors used one recently on a very vocal 7yr old jack russell and it worked very well- barking substantially decreased but when he was really worked up he would wimper/cry b/c it wouldn't set the collar off. I would be careful when first using a bark collar- don't expose the dog to very stimulating situations b/c they may rapidly escalate barking/shocking and either develop anxiety or learn they can bark through the collar. As for the sport dog and jumping the fence- you'd have to watch the dog and correct it when they jumped. Personally it sounds like an electric fence that has a collar w/ bark control on it would better suit your needs.

Yes, there is a Bark Correction Mode. I haven't tried it (my dog isn't a barker), but guide says the device does.

Didn't notice any particular type of bark. I sent the device back as it didn't work well at all.

Unfortunately, this particular product did not work for me. I think it may have been defective. I also bought the First Alert Bark Genie Automatic control device and it did work, at first. I should warn you that once my dog got used to the device- the product lost it mojo.

We use the Pet safe Little dog remote trainer for bark control on 14 pound maltese/pekinese mx and it works very well. Have never used the shock part, only the noise. Now if we put collar on her she will not bark at all. Only negative is short battery life.

This is a remote trainer. It could be used when your dog barks, if you are present. A bark collar will work automatically off the dog's vocal cords vibration on the collar to automatically correct barking. This is controlled by a remote and is mainly used in training.

The original Tritronics Barklimiter used a technology that pinged the dog at a owner determined strength each time the dog barked (i.e., "bark" = zap). This model would work very well for your yappy toy dog when dialed to the low setting. I have no idea what they've done to the design in the Garmin version because the two collars I tried didn't seem to work at all. My dog is a 90 lb male Boxer so I can't help you there. The good news is that Amazon's return policy is terrific.

This is remote prompted, Im not sure about the bark part of it, if it is auto correct, that part of the collar we have not had to use. But I will say we have a very stuburn 10 month old Husky/Lab mix and she has a mind of her own but with this collar she is learning, it is a great item for the price. Hope this helps

it has an automatic bark feature. You have to press the button on the remote to activate it. When we turned ours on it shocked the dog all the time even she was not barking so I sent this POS back.

You can test it. May be is the battery. With my dogs, some of them get used to the shock, and don't stop barking.

I got a different type and model a few years back. Its called REX. You can't really pin point the exact breed but it is definitely sounded like from a big breed adult dog as against yelping from miniature poodles. The recorded barking kept on repeating and sounded robotic after some time but then it served the purpose of warning you in case of intrusion.
