TYPES OF SHOCK COLLARS

As the name suggests, all shock collars feature a basic shock mechanism, usually with varying intensities, designed to immediately distract your dog, interrupting inappropriate behavior.

There are three basic types of shock collars, each designed for a specific purpose.

Boundary shock collars

These types of collars are used to keep dogs from leaving the yard or wandering beyond a certain point on properties without physical barriers, such as fences or walls. Boundary collars work by emitting a shock or vibration when the dog comes within a certain distance of these “invisible fences.”

Remote-controlled shock collars

Remote-controlled shock collars come with a receiver (attached to the collar) and handheld transmitter (controller). Corrective responses in the form of a shock, vibration, or beep are activated at will by the owner or trainer.

Bark shock collars

Designed to minimize barking, these collars are activated by the dog’s bark and deliver an automatic electric impulse or vibration without requiring the handler to be present.
