Product Description
The Gentle Leader SpraySense Collar uses patented SprayLogik technology to deliver a harmless burst of citronella spray to interrupt your dogs barking. It acts on four of your dog's five senses - he hears it, sees it, feels it and smells it. Citronella is a unique scent that most dogs don't normally encounter. It's non-offensive to humans yet unusual enough to distract your dog and interrupt the unwanted behavior. Shock and ultra-sonic collars attempt to reduce barking with pain. In addition to being less effective than spray, pain often increases anxiety and aggression and makes some behavior problems worse. When to use: The Gentle Leader SpraySense Collar can be used with any breed of dog that weighs 6 lbs. or more and is at least 6 months old. If your dog is smaller or younger please check first with your veterinarian. It is ideal for controlling general nuisance barking both indoors and outdoors. It is not recommended for anxiety-related barking unless specifically directed by a behavior profession. Kit contains: Spray device with on off switch, 24 in. adjustable nylon collar, Can of stain -free, hypoallergenic citronella spray, 6 volt battery, instruction guide, One year warranty. Additional sprays sold separately. Cornell University research found that 88.9% of dogs responded to The Gentle Leader SpraySense Collar, while only 44.4% responded to electric shock collars.

 Broke within 1 month of purchase January 6, 2009
Forrest Stanley (San Diego, CA)
Purchased the product in the hopes that it would stop my puppies whining habit. The whining was too high of pitch to be picked up by the microphone, so it did not work for this use.
The collar was useful in curbing some barking. It was quick to run out of spray (about 15 puffs per refill), and refilling it involves removing the collar from the dog. The battery also dies very quickly, so do not leave the collar on for a prolonged session.
When the first battery died, the collar never worked again. I tried replacing batteries with Premier Spray brand and Radio shack brand. Once replaced, the microphone would not pick up anything less then a loud yell directly into the mic (PS careful when you try this, as its easy to spray yourself in the face, speaking from personal experience here :)
Good idea, bad design... January 4, 2009
Andrea Etzel (San Diego)
I purchased this bark collar for my little bichon/yorkie puppy and it worked great for two days, until she figured it out. It definitely stopped her from barking but the design of the collar is horrible. The box is rather large (my dog is 12lbs) and the battery is located on the top of the device where the citronella shoots out. Unfortunately even though we put the collar on tightly, my dog is able to bite the top of the box and get to the battery pretty easily. The battery should not be located on the side near the dogs mouth. It is very easy for them to pop the cover off and pull the battery out. We cant even use it now.
Not for All Dogs December 30, 2008

As other reviewers have noted, this type of collar may not work for long-haired dogs. The collar worked off and on for a couple of days on our 10 month old Australian Shepherd, but has been ineffectual since. This collar does simply not work well for dogs who have long hair that can cover up the spray nozzle, nor for dogs who are seriously committed to barking.
 Not for long hair! December 27, 2008

This didn't work a bean, because the sprayer didn't make it past my Sheltie's long mane. This may work on short haired dogs...
Wish it worked December 27, 2008
book junkie (Minneapolis, Mn USA)
For the first day this collar worked great. It startled my small dog when she barked and I really think she would have learned not to bark had the collar worked for more than a day. When we put it on her the next day, it simply didn't work. I was so disappointed. We thought perhaps it needed to be refilled but no,it just failed to work. I have requested another collar to be sent, I'd like to give it another try. Perhaps this one was defective.
