There is the right way to train a dog, this I am sure. After all, investing a little bit of time to make sure that your pooch gets trained the right way where the basics are concerned is worth every single second, considering how you do not need to fret about future behavior when the rules are laid down right from the beginning. Barking, however, could be an issue if you live in a high density apartment, especially if the barking iis non-stop. Dogs bark for various reasons, but some tend to bark a whole lot more than the others. The $39.95 Bark Deterring Ultrasonic Collar might offer your ears some respite if you decide to give it a go.

The Bark Deterring Ultrasonic Collar happens to rely on ultrasonic sound in order to restore both peace and quiet to the surrounding. Each time a dog that wears this collar barks, the built-in microphone would detect such a sound, letting this unit release a harmless high-pitched tone that is inaudible to humans but would startle your pooch into silence. This would help the dog learn that barking results in the unpleasant sound, and might help curb this behavior pattern. Of course, there are no guarantee when it comes to the end result, but if you have already triend everything before and nothing worked, how about giving this a go?

When you walk your pet at night, it’s safe to say that it’s pretty easy to lose track of it, especially when it’s black (like mine). That’s one of the reasons why I really like these superbright LED collars. It ensures that your pet is clearly visible and you won’t lose it.

From the guys behind the HALO belt and HALO messenger bag, the HALO MINI is a quality illuminated pet collar that uses HALO’s patented illumination process. It’s designed to last for a long time and stands out in bright neon colors. The collar is supposed to be made out of higher quality materials than others currently on the market as well.

The project was launched through Kickstarter, and will be raising funds until July 26. It’s already surpassed its fundraising goal, so will definitely be going into production. You’ll have to pledge at least $29(USD) to get yours.

Texting and messaging has evolved quite a bit ever since it was launched on the mobile phone scene, but this smart collar is the first time I’ve seen a way for your dog to send you text messages. While your pup won’t be able to thumb-type LOLOMGWTFBBQ, you will get a message in the event that he’s in trouble from heat exhaustion.

Rethink Toronto collaborated with the Toronto Humane Society to design the Dog Caller, and it could help your four-legged friend from peril, whether he’s at home or in your car (not that you should ever leave your dog in the car.) Thanks to the collar, a SIM card, thermistor, and LEDs, you can monitor the temperatures around your pooch remotely. The collar will send you an instant text message when the heat gets dangerous, so you can quickly get your dog out of the heat.

That’s something pretty useful, especially for breeds like bulldogs, who can easily die from heat exhaustion. The device will be available starting Spring 2013 for $20. Now somebody needs to combine the Dog Caller with this.
