bark collar

Just ordered a YS500
Those of you that used it, do you think is it decent?

Only one that's worth buying in my opinon ...very durable n gets results

Love it. I've had them for many years. I've never even had to turn it up past level 3

Last 2 I bought were pure crap. The 2 before these lasted about 7 yrs.

i wanted to get one of them deals that emit the tone only dogs hear so they'll all get quiet in the kennel but the ones i saw had $h!tty reviews.

make sure you take the batterys out or use a dummy collar after they learn where they aren't supposed to bark..

we have 2 dogs now that think the tracking collar is a no bark collar and are completely silent on track an tree on a 3 second old track,,

cant hunt without trackers as they both cover a lot of ground when coon not moving much..

completely broke another one off coon with a no bark,, didn't know that the coon were what was causeing the barking everynight at 9:30-10:00pm..
one of the best dogs we had too..

good luck .

we used the radartron nobark ,
the one we used that broke the dog off coon was the old yellow one used 9volt battery,dont think they make it no more...

I think you made a good choice. Just remember the charger is not a smart charger and do not leave it charging for more that 24 hours. I think the instructions say 48 hours max but I would be conservative.

I bought one a couple years ago and it was complete junk. Only worked part of the time and was shocking dogs some even when they didn't bark. I hope you have a better experience.

YS500

I purchased 3 three years ago and they are by for the best bark colar that i have ever used....and i have tried them all. if you take care of them they will last a long time.

We may have gotten ripped off then. It's been 4 years or so ago.

Gun dog supply

I bought 3 from Gun Dog Supply the YS-500 from them are a lot better than the "Tri-Tronics bark limiter".
years ago I bought one of those with that yellow can looking thing. it was not hot enough to do the job on some dogs.. the same with the Bark limiter.. to date I have not had to turn the YS 500 past level 4!!!

by the way I would think maybe some of the stuff sold on e-bay may be a bit sub-standard. some is good and some things are a good bit less than good!--why is it on E-bay?

Apparently every dog is different. I keep bark collars or dummy collars on my dogs and they give plenty of mouth on track. I turn dog loose in 4 acres where they tree squirrels with the bark collars on and it teaches them not to tree in the yard, especially squirrels. I have no problems in the woods with them treeing. They ain't going to bark at my house and stay.

I tried new batteries in mine. Still want work. Could be chargers but ever model Ive got has a different size hole. Whats up with that recken? I got shafted I think. Course they will never work again now. Ive took all kinds of stuff apart on em and swapped it with parts off other ones I dont have a barker at the moment so Im good.
