<div><font face="comic sans ms,sans-serif">Do NOT use a bark collar on a puppy. A bark collar should be used as a LAST effort to train a dog regarding barking. It is my understanding that a bark collar is used along with training. It does not train the dog by itself. </font></div>

<div><font face="comic sans ms,sans-serif">Puppies will bark - especially if they are left alone for a typical work day. They are bored and lonely. </font></div>

<div><font face="Comic Sans MS">Our foster Ollie is quite the barker. For the first 72 hours, you could not leave his sight without him barking non-stop. Part of his problem is separation anxiety. Even though he was surrounded by other bassets, he felt he was being abandoned by the human (even if there was another person in the room). I requested a bark collar for him. When it arrived a few days later, Ollie was getting more settled in. He still will bark when you first leave a room but he's starting to understand that it's a temporary thing. </font></div>
