- How does the automatic bark detection work?
- A sensor picks up vibration and sound from the dog's bark and triggers the selected mode. Sensitivity levels adjust how easily it fires, so start low and raise it only if the dog ignores mild corrections.
- Is the shock mode safe for small dogs?
- The collar lists a range down to 11 lbs, but static correction is not right for every dog. Many trainers recommend starting with vibration or ultrasonic and consulting a vet or trainer for small or anxious dogs.
- Can I use it without the static shock?
- Yes. Vibration and ultrasonic modes work without static, and static levels are adjustable. This lets you begin with the gentlest option.
- How long does the battery last and how do I charge it?
- The battery is rated for about 15 days of typical use and charges in roughly 2 hours with the included cable. A low battery indicator warns you before it dies.
- Is it waterproof enough for swimming?
- It is rated IP67, which means it survives rain, splashes and brief immersion. It is not designed for extended swimming or deep water.
- What is in the box?
- You get the collar receiver, a strap, the rechargeable battery and a charging cable. A remote is not included because the collar triggers automatically.
