lesson learned, when using a bark collar on a dog, you have to check it every day!
I have been in a shutdown and working 16 hours every day. I finally got off early today and when I took the shock collar off the dog I noticed the electrodes had actually burned two small holes into the dogs neck!
He was acting fine, I am just glad I decided to check the collar today.
I can not belive the damage it caused. Please be aware of this danger.
It is not so much "burning" from the shock, it is "wearing" the prongs into the neck because of how tight you have to keep it on them for it to opperate correctly. Most shock collars will tell you in the instructions to not leave it on a dog for more than 8 continuous hours.
