A Review of The No Bark 18 Collar

The SBC-18 collar is handy for those who are on the look out of a humanist solution to stop the relentless barking of their dog. Loaded with umpteen features including 18 progressive correction levels and correction induction via sound or vibrations, no bark 18 collar is adjustable for neck sizes 6″-28″.

Among its modes, there is the “Test Collar” mode, which will let you see that the SBC-18 is working correctly. In this mode, you place the collar 8 inches away from you and you say the word “test” in the direction of the sensor. This should activate the first level of static shock correction, which will activate a LED light.

The collar will deliver a small static charge set at the lowest level of intensity the first time the dog barks, after that, it’ll automatically move on to the next level if it detects another barking within 30 seconds of the previous one. Nevertheless, the collar will shut itself down automatically for three minutes if it detects at least 15 barkings within 50 seconds.

Use the SBC-18 at times when you don’t want your dog to bark. The corrections administered by the collar keep increasing in intensity until they distract the dog and keep it from barking. The static shock that your dog receives is mild to draw the attention of your dog and hence proves to be harmless.

Functions of the SBC-18

The most popular features of the collar are the number of correction levels it provides, resistance to water and bad weather, a test mode that will save you trips to get it fixed, and a limited guarantee.

And when it comes to looks, the SBC-10 comes in a great looking orange color.

Using The SBC-18

The collar shouldn’t be used on agressive dogs. Let your dog not wear any other collar while using an SBC-18 collar. That includes tethers or strings that might accidentally activate the collar. Also, don’t make your dog wear the collar for more than 8 hours per day. Finally, don’t make your dog wear the collar too tightly in order to avoid rashes.
