Using instruction Vocalis
Training for Calm Dog Behavior
Product Purpose
Vocalis is a behavioral training aid designed to help reduce excessive, repetitive barking. The product supports the learning process of calm responses during controlled training sessions.
Vocalis is not a muzzle that prevents biting and does not replace a traditional muzzle.
Preparing for First Use
-
Introduce the Vocalis to the dog in a calm environment.
-
Allow the dog to sniff the product before putting it on.
-
The first fitting should be short (1–2 minutes).
-
Reward the dog with a calm voice and a positive atmosphere.
The goal of the first stage is to help the dog become familiar with the new item without stress.
How to Properly Fit Vocalis
-
Place the Vocalis on the dog’s muzzle so the material fits snugly but does not press.
-
Make sure the dog can breathe freely.
-
Check that the dog can slightly open its mouth and pant.
-
The strap should be adjusted so the product does not slip during movement.
Training Session
-
Put on the Vocalis at the start of the exercise.
-
Use the training cone as a signal for the start of calm behavior.
-
Sessions should be short — usually 5–10 minutes.
-
Remove the Vocalis once the dog has calmed down.
Regular, short sessions produce the best results.
