Prongs need to be either side of dog’s windpipe.
Now leave the collar on your dog. Do Not turn the collar back on. Wait for 24 – 48 hours until your dog totally ignores the collar, initially they will scratch at it and just paw at it, when that completely stops, we are ready to start the training.
You must be present when you turn on the collar and start the training.
Do not just leave your dog to figure it out, teach them from the start.
Do Not Under Any Circumstances Put The Collar On Your Dog Without First Testing It. Testing the Collar, You do not have to bark at it. Just test by scratching the rough surface of the test tool on the bark collar(as shown in the diagram) using a fingernail or pen.
First time the bark collar will emit sound.

If your dog barks and the collar does not beep, press the + button once this will increase the sensitivity to number 2, if your dog barks again and no beep, once again press the + button, continue this until the collar beeps immediately after your dog’s bark.

You must teach them what you expect from them. Remember every time your dog barks you give the command NO. The collar will reinforce that command. If your dog continues to bark then you give a much more forceful NO and the collar will do the same, again continuation you give a much more forceful NO! Again, the collar will mimic you. This way your dog will understand that the beep means NO. The beep and vibration mean NO! And the way to stop the discomfort is to stop barking. Do Not Just Put The Collar On Your Dog And Expect Them To Understand What It Is Supposed To Mean, I Will Admit Some Dogs Are Super Smart And Will Understand Almost Immediately, But What If Your Dog Doesn’t Understand, Help Them Understand, Teach Them Always. Remove The Collar When Your Dog Is Playing.
