They figure out soon that if the collar is not on, they can bark all they want.. smart doggies!

Yes, that's the type my dogs have. There's a sensor for vibration and noise. If the dogs continues to bark, the shock gets progressivly stronger. If the dog is in a barking frenzy, the collar will shut off for 5 minutes to give the dog a chance to calm down, it doesn't zap the heck out of them.
I never thought I would consider these things either, that is until Bentley came along. Baxter isn't as bad, but still cannot allow them to wake up the neighbours at 4:00 in the morning. Sure dogs bark, it's natural, but you have to be considerate of your neighbours too, not just because of city by-laws, just because they are your neighbours.
