For many of us around the world, Fathers Day is an annual event that is celebrated religiously, whether it be by sending a card, showering our dad in fathers day gifts, attending family dinners, afternoon teas, lunches or all of the above! In Australia, Father’s Day is celebrated on the first Sunday in September (6th September 2009), but why is it that we celebrate Fathers Day and how did it come about?

Father’s Day is thought to have originated in America between 1909 and 1910 when an adult daughter by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd, raised alongside her 5 siblings by her widowed father realized how much of a sacrifice her father had made to ensure her safe passage in he world. Mothers day was already widely celebrated and Sonora felt the need to acknowledge her father in a similar fashion.

So what are the alternatives? You may have heard of dog training collars but don’t know what they are. A dog training collar is a humane way to train your dog not to bark. Dog training collar simply fit around your dogs neck and when it barks a small electric shock is given to the dog. You may think this sounds nasty, but all it is is a small shock, the same as we would get from touching a television screen, not enough to harm the dog but just enough to tell it not to bark!

A dog training collar would make a great gift on Fathers Day and would make Dad love his best friend even more! You can get an anti bark collar from Pet Control, which is an Australian website selling dog control products, as well as other products such as cat fencing and containment systems.
