Please read and follow the instructions in this manual. Proper fit of the collar is important. A collar worn
for too long or made too tight on the dog’s neck may cause skin damage. This is called bed sores; it is also
called decubitus ulcers or pressure necrosis.
Avoid leaving the collar on the dog for more than 12 hours per day.
When possible, reposition the collar on the dog’s neck every one to two hours.
Check the fit to prevent excessive pressure; follow the instructions in this manual.
Never connect a lead/leash, tags, or other items to the collar; it will cause excessive pressure on the Contact
Points.
When using a separate collar for a lead/leash and/or tags, don’t put pressure on the electronic collar.
Before playing with your dog, remove the collar. The activity may cause your dog to bark, which could
lead to him associating the play with the correction.
Wash the dog’s neck area and the Contact Points of the collar weekly with a damp cloth. Turn the unit off
before touching the Contact Points. Ensure the dog’s neck is thoroughly dry before replacing the collar.
Examine the contact area daily for signs of a rash or a sore.
If a rash or sore is found, discontinue use of the collar until the skin has healed.
If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinary surgeon.
For additional information on bed sores and pressure necrosis, please visit the Support section for bark
control at www.sportdog.com.
These steps will help keep your dog safe and comfortable. Millions of dogs are comfortable while they
wear stainless steel contacts. Some dogs are sensitive to contact pressure. You may find after some time
that your dog is very tolerant of the collar. If so, you may relax some of these precautions. It is important to
continue daily checks of the contact area. If redness or sores are found, discontinue use until the skin has
fully healed.
You may need to trim the hair in the area of the Contact Points or switch to the longer Contact Points to
ensure consistent contact. Never shave the dog’s neck; this may lead to a rash or infection.
You should not make the collar any tighter than is required for good contact. A collar that is too tight will
increase the risk of pressure necrosis in the contact area.

COMPONENTS
HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
The SportDOG® Brand SBC-8 Bark Control Collar has been proven safe, comfortable and effective for dogs
over 8 lbs. The Bark Control Collar uses digital technology to provide the most reliable bark detection
available.
The SBC-8 utilises Progressive Correction to correct your dog from barking. The correction starts at the
lowest level (1) and increases to the next level (up to 8) each time your dog barks within 30 seconds of the
previous bark. If your dog does not bark again within 30 seconds, the correction will reset to the lowest level
(1).
NOTE: As a built-in safety feature, if your dog barks 15 times or more within an 80 second period, the SBC-8
will automatically stop issuing static stimulation for 30 seconds and then resume normal operation.

KEY DEFINITIONS
ON/OFF BUTTON: Turns the unit on/off.
CONTACT POINTS: Deliver the static stimulation.
INDICATOR LIGHT: Indicates when the unit has
been turned on or off and serves as a battery
status indicator.
STEP: 01
USING THE BARK CONTROL COLLAR FOR THE FIRST TIME
Before using the SBC-8 for the first time, be sure to check that the unit has plenty of battery life to begin
operation. Your unit should arrive with a fresh battery and be ready to use right out of the box. Simply fit the
collar properly using the steps outlined on page 9. If the unit does not turn on or indicates the battery is low
(red indicator light is flashing) it is time to replace the battery. Average battery life is 200 hours, depending
on how often your dog barks.
Due to greater use during your dog’s initial training, your first battery may not last as long. To conserve
battery life, turn the SBC-8 off when not in use.
BATTERY INDICATION
Once the unit is powered on, and after 4 seconds, the unit will flash indicating the battery status. The
following table summarises the Indicator Light colours and their corresponding meanings:

FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO CHANGE THE BATTERY:
1. Remove both screws located on either side of the
Contact Points with included 3/32 Hex Key (1A).
2. Remove the Battery Lid by pushing on one side of the
collar strap (1B). Removing the collar strap entirely
from the unit can make the process easier, but is not
required.
3. Remove the current battery (1C).
4. Install a 4L R44 battery aligned with the battery icon
printed on the inside of the unit.
5. Replace the Battery Lid.
6. Reinstall the screws. Do not over-tighten the screws.
NOTE: Replacement 4L R44 batteries can be found at
many retailers. A 3/32 Hex Key was provided with the
original product; however, a replacement kit can be
purchased by contacting SportDOG® Customer Care if
needed.

STEP: 02
OPERATE THE BARK CONTROL COLLAR
TURNING THE UNIT ON/OFF
Press and hold the On/Off button (located between the Contact Points) for about one second - the unit
will power on immediately, as well as tone. To turn the unit off, press and hold the On/Off button for three
seconds. A tone will sound, then the unit will turn off.
TEST MODE
NOTE: TEST MODE is not a functional mode of correction for dogs and should not be used for training. Test
mode is for the user to test the static stimulation to ensure the unit is functioning and should be used with
the provided Test Light Tool.

correction. It is recommended that you use the Test Light Tool to test the correction.
5. At the end of the test the unit will power off, indicated by a long tone and a solid red light.
6. Turn the unit back on using the On/Off button to resume normal operation.

STEP: 03
FIT THE BARK CONTROL COLLAR
IMPORTANT: The proper fit and placement of the Bark Control Collar is important for effective operation.
The Contact Points must have direct contact with your dog’s skin.
See page 3 for Important Safety Information
To ensure a proper fit, follow these steps:
1. Make sure the unit is off.
2. With your dog standing (3A), centre the collar so
the Contact Points are underneath your dog’s neck,
touching the skin (3B). If your dog has a long or thick
coat, you have two options to ensure consistent
contact: either trim the hair around the Contact Points
or switch to the longer Contact Points included with
your system.
Note: When switching to the longer Contact Points, ensure the o-rings are attached.
3. Check the tightness of the collar by inserting one finger between the end of a Contact Point and your
dog’s neck. The fit should be snug but not constricting.
4. Allow your dog to wear the collar for several minutes and then recheck the fit. Check the fit again as your
dog becomes more comfortable wearing the Bark Control Collar.
Note: If desired, you may cut off the excess length of the collar strap after properly fitting the collar.
You may need to trim the hair in the area of the Contact Points. Never shave the dog’s neck; this may lead
to a rash or infection.
You should not make the collar any tighter than is required for good contact. A collar that is too tight
will increase the risk of pressure necrosis in the contact area.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING USE OF THE BARK CONTROL COLLAR
IMPORTANT: Do not leave your dog alone the first few times he receives a static stimulation.
Place the Bark Control Collar properly on your dog and wait nearby until he barks. Most dogs will
understand quickly that the Bark Control Collar is disrupting their urge to bark and will relax and stop
barking. Because the static stimulation may be surprising or startling at first, some dogs may bark more at
the initial correction.
On rare occasions, a dog may get into a bark-stimulation-bark-stimulation cycle. If this happens, reassure
your dog with calm, soothing tones. As your dog relaxes, he will understand that if he becomes quiet, he will
not receive more static stimulation. A small minority of dogs that have this reaction will only have it the first
time they wear the Bark Control Collar.
You should notice a reduction in your dog’s barking within the first couple of days of him wearing the Bark
Control Collar. At this point, it is important to remember the learning process is still not complete. Dogs will
test” the new learning experience and will increase their attempts to bark. This usually occurs during the
second week that the dog wears the Bark Control Collar. If this does occur, remain consistent and do not alter
your use of the Bark Control Collar. You must place the Bark Control Collar on your dog in every situation in
which you want him to be quiet. If your dog is not wearing the Bark Control Collar, he may resume barking and
his learning would suffer a setback.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Will another dog’s bark set off the
Bark Control Collar?
No
Is the Bark Control Collar safe and
humane?
Yes. The Bark Control Collar is designed to get your dog’s
attention, not to punish him. However, the initial static stimulation
may startle your dog.
Will the Bark Control Collar work
for my dog?
The Bark Control Collar is safe and effective for all breeds and sizes
of dogs, though it may be too large for dogs under 8 lbs. to wear
comfortably. The system should only be used with dogs that are over
six months of age. If your dog is injured or his mobility is otherwise
impaired, contact your veterinary surgeon or professional trainer
before use.
Is it possible for my dog to learn not
to bark only when the Bark Control
Collar is on?
Yes. This is best accomplished by placing the Bark Control Collar
on your dog only in situations in which you never want him to bark
and never placing the Bark Control Collar on your dog in situations
in which you find it acceptable for him to bark.
I have more than one dog, but only
one dog with a barking problem.
Will it cause problems between the
dogs if I keep them together?
It should not be a problem, especially if you follow the procedures
described in this Guide.
Is the Bark Control Collar
waterproof?
Yes. It is waterproof and submersible to 7.6 m.
Can I attach a lead/leash to the
Bark Control Collar?
No. This can result in pulling the Contact Points too tightly against
your dog’s neck. Attach a lead/leash to a separate, non-metallic
collar, making sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the
Contact Points.
Can I leave The Bark Control Collar
on my dog all the time?
No. Never leave the Bark Control Collar on for more than
12 consecutive hours.
What should I do if my dog’s neck
becomes red and irritated?
This condition is due to the Contact Points irritating the skin.
Discontinue use of the Bark Control Collar for a few days. If the
condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinary surgeon.
Once the skin returns to normal, resume use and monitor the skin
condition closely.

Veuillez lire et respecter les consignes décrites dans ce manuel. Il est important que le collier soit bien
ajus. Un collier porté trop longtemps ou trop serré peut irriter la peau du chien. Ce type de blessure
s’appelle une escarre de décubitus ou une nécrose cutae.
Évitez de laisser le chien porter le collier plus de 12 heures par jour.
Dans la mesure du possible, replacez le collier sur le cou de votre chien toutes les heures ou deux heures.
Vérifiez l’ajustement pour éviter une pression excessive ; respectez les instructions de ce manuel.
N’attachez jamais de laisse, de médaillons ou d'autres objets au collier, car cela exercerait une pression
excessive sur les contacteurs.
Lorsque vous utilisez un autre collier avec une laisse et/ou un médaillon, veillez à ce qu’il n’exerce pas de
pression sur le collier électronique.
Retirez le collier avant de jouer avec votre chien. Votre chien peut aboyer pendant le jeu, ce qui pourrait
l'amener à associer le jeu à la correction.
Lavez le cou du chien et les contacteurs du collier avec un chiffon humide chaque semaine. Éteignez
l'appareil avant de toucher les contacteurs. Vérifiez que le cou du chien est complètement sec avant de
remettre le collier.
Examinez quotidiennement la zone de contact pour détecter toute rougeur ou plaie.
En cas de rougeur ou de plaie, arrêtez d’utiliser le collier jusqu’à la grison.
Si l’irritation persiste au-delà de 48 heures, consultez votre vétérinaire.
Pour obtenir des informations supplémentaires sur les escarres et la nécrose cutae, veuillez consulter
la section d'assistance concernant les sysmes de contle des aboiements sur notre site Internet :
www.sportdog.com.
Ces précautions vous permettront de garantir la sécurité et le confort de votre chien. Des millions de chiens
n’ont aucun problème à porter les contacteurs en acier inoxydable. Certains sont sensibles à la pression
des contacteurs. Après un certain temps, il se peut que votre chien tolère très bien le collier. Si c’est le cas,
certaines précautions peuvent être assouplies. Il est important de poursuivre les contrôles quotidiens de la
zone de contact. En cas de rougeur ou de plaie, artez d’utiliser le collier jusqu’à la grison compte de
la peau.
Il peut s’avérer nécessaire de couper les poils de votre chien dans la zone site autour des contacteurs
pour garantir un contact homogène. Ne rasez jamais le cou de votre chien, car cela risquerait de
provoquer des irritations ou une infection.
Assurez-vous de ne pas serrer le collier de manière excessive. Un collier trop serré accroît le risque de
crose cutae dans la zone de contact du collier.

CONTENU DU KIT
FONCTIONNEMENT DU SYSTÈME
Il a été prouvé que le collier anti-aboiement SBC-8 de SportDOG® est sans danger, confortable et efficace
pour les chiens pesant au moins 3,5 kg. Le collier anti-aboiement utilise une technologie numérique offrant
la solution de détection des aboiements la plus fiable du marché.
Le SBC-8 est équipé de la correction progressive pour emcher votre chien d'aboyer. La stimulation
marre au niveau le plus bas (1) et augmente au niveau suivant (jusqu'à 8) chaque fois que votre chien
aboie, dans les 30 secondes suivant le premier aboiement. Si votre chien n'aboie pas dans les 30 secondes,
le niveau de stimulation se règle à nouveau sur le niveau de stimulation le plus bas (1).
REMARQUE : grâce à la fonction de sécurité intégrée, si votre chien aboie 15 fois ou plus en moins de
80 secondes, le collier SBC-8 arrête automatiquement d’émettre une stimulation électrostatique pendant
30 secondes, puis reprend son fonctionnement normal.

ÉTAPE 01
UTILISATION DU COLLIER ANTIABOIEMENT POUR LA PREMIÈRE
FOIS
Avant d'utiliser le SBC-8 pour la première fois, vérifiez que l'état de la pile est à son maximum avant
de commencer. Votre collier doit être équipé d'une pile neuve et être prêt à l'emploi dès sa sortie de
l'emballage. Ajustez le collier de fon aquate en suivant les instructions de la page 23. S'il ne s'allume
pas ou indique que la pile est faible (le voyant lumineux rouge clignote), il est temps de remplacer la pile.
L'autonomie moyenne de la pile est de 200 heures, en fonction de la fréquence à laquelle votre chien aboie.
En raison de l'utilisation plus fquente lors du dressage initial de votre chien, la première pile risque de
ne pas durer aussi longtemps que les suivantes. Afin d'allonger l'autonomie de la pile, éteignez le SBC-8
lorsque vous ne l'utilisez pas.
INDICATEUR DE LA PILE
Quatre secondes aps avoir allumé le collier, le voyant lumineux clignote pour indiquer l'état de la pile.
