Sportdog Brand Nobark Sbc-R Collar

The SportDOG Brand NoBark SBC-R is a smart bark control collar that learns your dog's unique barking pattern and responds only to your dog—not to every noise in the neighborhood. If you're dealing with excessive barking and want training that adapts to your dog's personality rather than blasting indiscriminate corrections, this collar uses Silent Partner technology to detect your dog's specific bark signature and filter out external noise. That means consistent, targeted training whether you're working with a single dog or managing a kennel.

What sets the SBC-R apart is flexibility. You get three programmable correction modes—Temperament Learning, Progressive Correction, and User-Selected—plus 10 levels of static stimulation, so you can dial in exactly what works for your dog's temperament. Temperament Learning mode is particularly useful for dogs that respond well to a graduated approach: the collar remembers what correction level finally stopped the barking and starts there next time, then backs off gradually as the dog improves. If your dog is a habitual barker, there's also an automatic safety shutoff: after 15 barks in 80 seconds, the collar pauses for 30 seconds before resuming, preventing over-correction.

The collar is waterproof to 10 feet, has a rechargeable battery good for 200 hours per charge, and ships with both standard and long contact points so you can fit it to your dog's coat type. The OLED display keeps you in the loop about operating mode and battery status. Built for dogs 8 pounds and up with neck sizes from 5 to 22 inches, the SBC-R is rugged enough for training and field work, with a receiver unit roughly 2.75 inches long.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size dogs can wear the NoBark SBC-R?

The collar is designed for dogs 8 pounds or larger with neck sizes ranging from 5 to 22 inches. It ships with a 3/4″ collar strap and both standard and long contact points, so you can adjust the fit for different coat thicknesses.

How does Silent Partner technology work?

Silent Partner technology learns your dog's unique barking pattern and filters out all other noise—including barks from other dogs or external sounds. This means the collar only delivers corrections in response to your dog's bark, not random noise, making it effective even in multi-dog households or kennels.

What are the three training modes?

Temperament Learning mode starts at the lowest correction level and remembers what level finally stops your dog's barking, using that as the starting point next time. Progressive Correction mode increases the level with each bark within 30 seconds, then resets if your dog stops barking. User-Selected mode lets you manually choose and hold a fixed correction level.

How long does the battery last?

The rechargeable lithium-ion battery charges in 2 hours and provides up to 200 hours of runtime per charge. The collar displays a low battery indicator on its OLED screen.
