How many times is the dog allowed to bark before giving a warning beep then subsequently the shock?

Only a couple of times. It warns her twice before the shock happens. Been the best collar that I have bought (after many unsuccessful purchases). Hope that helps !

I think it give 3 beeps but they sometimes will still bard. It will give the warning beep before they begin barking. Mine does not vibrate just beeps and shocks. It doesn't seem to hurt them. I had one today that didn't bark without the collar but just ran around the table inside and outside for 2-3 hours. Hyper dog I think. I thought she would have a heart attack.

One bark triggers the beep. Any further barks after that gives a shock. So the dog may bark once, then make soft growls or whines after that. But the dog is reluctent to even bark the first time

I believe it warns them once and if they bark immediately after it will shock.Just with the warning alone by dog has learned that all the needless barking is unacceptable, and he is as stubborn as they come.

I believe its 2-3, then a beep and if the dog continues to bark it shocks. I only had to use it once on my german shorthair pointer. I have it on him in the off position cause he knows he will get zapped if he barks. It only took one zap before he learn not to bark. Hope this helps.Mark

First bark triggers series of warning beeps. Any barking within the following 30 seconds results in shock and beeps. On my dog, she got shocked even without barking even though I tried to turn down sensitivity, so it was of no benefit and instead confusing to the dog.

After the dog barks their first bark it starts beeping. Then after a few seconds if they bark again it vibrates, then again after a few seconds if they are still barking it administers on shock. My dog never goes past that point so I'm not sure if it keeps shocking or resets back to the beep.

I always give my dog a moment to respond to my voice command. If no response, I use the beep/vibrate. If he still does not respond, I use the shock. If he starts to respond, but gets distracted, I give him another chance with just a beep/vibrate. Always start with the voice command because that is ultimately what you want him to obey just in case he is ever without the collar. Once you shock your dog a couple times during the training phase, you will rarely need to use it.

I'm not sure. All I know is it only took 3 times and my dog stopped barking at other dogs when we went on a walk.

Once the dog gets the hang of it, I've found that I can set the collar to beep only (no shock) and it's still effective. I assume that extends the battery life because it doesn't have to charge / maintain the shock system. The real problem is dead batteries from a new package.

There's a round dial on unit which adjusts intensity of warning noise and later shock if the dog continues to bark after warning noise. If you're asking about the web material itself, well, that's self explanatory.

Yes, the collar shows dog one, dog two and dog three. You have to switch to the dog you want to shock. It is not possible to shock both at the same time.

,..Also, the up and down buttons on the unit only adjust the collars sensitivity to the bark. The owner is able to adjust this because sometimes general sounds will set off the collar (it will beep.) For instance, closing my car door while the dog is in the car will set off the unit. It doesn't administer a shock, only the first of 2 warning beeps. People that live in a noisier environment will probably want the collar at a higher setting, meaning fewer external sounds will set it off. You just have to expirament with it which is very easy to do. Hope that helps.

The vibration is automatic, it is the first alert to the dog, if it continues to bark the shock starts and goes up in strength while barking continues. The vibration is suppose to be a warning to the dog of what is coming. If it learns then no shock is necessary.

t first, the unit will only beep, as a warning. If barks continue, the unit beeps again. If barks still continue, the unit gives the first shock, the lowest voltage, level 1. If barking continues, the unit will go to level 2 shock, then level 3 etc... Your dog will most always stop barking at level 1, or in some cases, level 2. It's programmed to always start with the lightest shock and goes up from there.

It will not shock the dog when barking and yes u can press the button whenever to beep, shock or vibrate

Yes there is- in fact there are three. I use the beeper about 20 times for every time I use shock. Also shock can be set very very low. I love this product

Forgot to add that I leave the collar fairly loose, and 99% of the time, just use the warning beep. Only needed to hit shock twice in two years.

it is a shock collar... you can hit one button to get your dogs attention and a second button if you need to shock the dog because it is not listening to your command. A third button is for positive reinforcement. I had to use the shock button twice. Overall it is effective.

It offers a beep as a warning and then the shock. No static vibration, but the shock level can be adjusted depending on how stubborn your dog is.

It's for any size dog. After you use the tone followed by the shock a couple times, you will only need to use the tone and the dog will associate that with what's coming next and respond.

Yes, there's a warning area (only tone) and a correction are (shock)! I used the shock modes a couple of weeks, and then leave it on only tone mode, because the collar sometimes give them shocks randomly when they are close but not even in the warning area

There are 3 levels for each dog individually; vibrate, shock low, and shock high. There is also a button to vibrate both dogs at the same time. I don't feel that the high level shock is very high as our German Shorthaired Pointer sometimes required a second shock, but the Australian Kelpie responds the first time every time.
