ENGLISH 7. Frequently Asked Questions Will the SCOUTBARK100 be effective on my dog? • There are many reasons for excessive barking - your dog may be lonely, hungry, cold or hot or simply alerting you to people or animals on your property. The SCOUTBARK100 is best used on dogs whose needs are well fulfilled and bark excessively at everything that moves. Will the barking from another dog trigger the sensor on the SCOUTBARK100? • No. The sensor will trigger only when the vibration of the vocal chords matches the barking sound. Is the SCOUTBARK100 appropriate and humane? • Yes. The SCOUTBARK100 is designed to get your dog's attention, not to punish it. However, the initial correction may startle your dog. What is meant by static correction? • We have all received a static shock at some point in our lives, such as when we walk barefoot across a carpeted floor and feel a small shock after touching a doorknob. Static shock does not hurt, but it does startle us. As such, the static correction delivered to your dog through our SCOUTBARK100 is totally harmless and does not cause any pain or damaging effect. Will my dog stop barking completely? • No. The SCOUTBARK100 was specifically designed to reduce or discourage excessive barking behavior, but not eliminate barking all together. My SCOUTBARK100 beeps, but my dog keeps barking (does not seem to respond to the static correction). • Tighten the Pet Collar Unit and/or trim your dog's hair where the Metal Contacts touch its neck to ensure good skin contact. • Replace the battery. • If your dog still does not respond, contact Customer Service at 1-888-331-3383.
