Any dog owner will tell you that one of the hardest parts of owning a dog is training your pooch not to bark all the time. Seriously, a new puppy can, if not instructed properly, become a source of tension in your neighborhood if you let its constant barking behavior go unchecked. Put simply, it is important to teach your hound the importance of silence.
However, now a new product aimed at dogs has gone raised a few eyebrows among dog owners, due to the fact that this unusual bit of hardware can replace your dog's "woof: with something even more offensive: cuss words.
Take a look at this commercial for the awesome dog collar:That's right; the product in question is called the 'Cuss Collar' and has the ability to change your dog's bark into a string of offensive swearwords. With the tagline "Go Bark Yourself", the collar features a rectangular speaker attached to a leather belt with steel buckles, from which issues the sound of a human voice swearing in a way that would make Gordon Ramsay proud.
The product's official website states: "This collar is NOT a shock/vibration/training collar and is not intended for anti-bark training use," and it adds that the speaker can play sounds of up to 80 dB loud and is powered by 2 AAA batteries. It's lightweight and also features a standard tag attachment ring.
The Cuss Collar costs $60 - but considering the endless amount of joy I'm going to get out of my border collie screaming at the birds in the garden to "f*** ***", I'd say it's a bargain.
