Bark collar will not effect your dogs opening on game at all! I have (3) of the Garmin bark collars that work great. If you buy one, let your dog wear it for a week before you actually turn it on. She'll be use to having it on after a week and then won't realize the stimulation comes from the bark collar but rather is the result of her barking. I set all mine on "A" which is the automatic mode.
First bark is light stimulation. If the dog continues to bark, each bark gets stronger stimulation. Once the dog stops barking for a short period the collar will reset itself to start again at the low stimulation level. I rarely have a dog that will bark more than 8-10 times in the pen on any given day. Got 2 that often won't bark north an once or twice if at all.
I DO NOT leave the bark collars on 24/7. Only when I'm not home. If they bark when I'm home I know someone or something out of the ordinary is around.
