Stop Barking!

Managing Chaos at the Door     Calming Cap

We've divided our bark control devices into three categories based on their likely effect on barking behavior.

Category One Devices

Category Two Devices

Category Three Devices

To choose the BEST bark control device for your dog, you must know the reason for his barking. Read our Help! I’m Barking and I Can’t Be Quiet book if you need help understanding your dog’s barking behavior or contact us for a CONSULTATION. In general, bark control devices are not recommended for barking stemming from fearful, aggressive or compulsive behavior.

You’ll find more strategies to manage your dog’s behavior at the door on our Managing Chaos at the Door audio CD. Playable on your computer or in any CD player. You’ll find specific ways to manage jumping up, door dashing, fearful and threatening behavior by teaching your dog what you want him to do rather than trying to correct him for what you don’t want.

At the root of some excessive barking problems is a dog’s high state of arousal. Dogs often become agitated and bark when riding in the car, when greeting people at the door, or watching people and dogs pass their “territory”. The Gentle Leader Calming Cap™ is a wonderful tool for decreasing arousal leading to barking in these and other high-stress situations. The Calming Cap reduces visual stimuli and lowers your dog’s emotional arousal. The single-panel sheer fabric window does not blind your dog, but filters his vision, and we think it’s like trying to see under low-light conditions. Dogs we’ve used it with can still see well enough to go on walks and play fetch. Most dogs accept the Cap easily. Comes with complete instructions for proper use.
