PetSafe Indoor Ultrasonic Dog Bark Control - No Collar Needed - Up to 25 ft Range - Anti-Bark Pet Training System - Automatic with Manual Trainer Button

I am so excited! Have you ever had a dog so yappy and aggressive that it woke you up all hours of the night barking and growling at other members of the household who were just getting up to use the restroom or getting a drink? I have! I have been contemplating rehoming my dog because she never let's me sleep at night. I decided I'd give this a try. It's only day one and it's working SO well. My house is at peace! I'm not EVEN joking! I used the training button to stop the growling and after two growls and two button pushes, my dog has not growled since! My sons were never allowed to enter my home without her going ballistic and if they had friends over, she wouldn't stop barking until they left, even if they stayed the night! My son had a friend over today, she did two barks. That's it. Later My girlfriend came home and Luna did a bark and a half. Usually she goes psycho when she sees my girlfriend. I am in LOVE with this device. I've never seen my dog so quiet and calm. I even take it outside with me when I walk her since she literally starts acting like a psycho the moment her foot crosses the threshold from inside the house to outside the house. Thank you so much for restoring peace in my home. I might actually start to love her all again. The struggle has been real. I'm a mom of 4, a student, and working. I need my sleep! I'm looking forward to sleeping through the night tonight. This quit working after a couple of weeks. I sent it back and got a replacement, it did the same thing. Worked for a couple weeks and then quit working. It would go off over little noises, but not actually produce a sound. The sound can be heard by younger kids by the way. I couldn't hear it, but my kids would get annoyed by it.

Like most dog training devices, you can’t just turn this on and expect it to do all the work. That being said, it has worked amazingly for us! Our 10m old puppy was getting in a bad habit of barking in her crate while my husband and I were working so I decided to give it a go. I placed it next to her crate and we happen to have a camera facing her crate so I can look back and see when it has given correction. The good: When it emits the sound the light flashes red so I kept an eye on it to see how it did when she barked and watched her response. It works perfectly, even sometimes when she is clear across the house in another room or outside. She responds by visibly flinching and immediately quiets down. I’d say within a day her bad barking habit was gone. The bad: it occasionally picks up aberrant noises as barking. Since I already knew her response when it goes off I noticed a few times her flinching when we were cleaning or I was playing piano loudly on low keys. Sure enough it had gone off inappropriately. So now if we’re doing something really loud or if I’m playing the piano I unplug the battery (it would be really nice if it had an off switch, but it doesn’t) to avoid her being inappropriately corrected. I imagine if I didn’t take the time to do this, and she was unfairly corrected, she would either stop responding or be a very unhappy pup! To sum up, I’m really pleased with this product. But you do have to put some work in. I hope nobody is torturing their dogs with it expecting it to be foolproof.

Product seems to be made nice. Did not work for my three French bulldogs at all!

When I first started using this item, it worked fairly well. Our dog - a barky Lhasa Apso - would bark like crazy if he saw anyone - even one of the family outside. With this unit, he would bark just a couple of times and then pretty much stop. I'd say his barking was reduced by 90% - that is, it was down to about 10% of its original level - danged good in my book! And none of the humans in the house ever heard anything. This worked for about 2 weeks, but he gradually started barking more and more, and now he's back to maybe 80% of the barking level he was at before we used it. I guess he kind-of got used to the sound; it no longer annoys him, or whatever. At least, not enough to get him to stop barking. I like the idea of this product - no collar to deal with. But it's just not working for us ... maybe it would be more effective if it had an intensity control or something - so we could turn up the volume.

When i first favorited this item, it had more than 4 stars. But when i finally decided to go ahead and buy it, since i dont like the idea of shock collars, the item was at 3 stars. I should have listened to some of the reviews. While this item is not expensive at all, it was a TOTAL waste of money. My mom has 4 small dogs, a shih tzu pure breed and THREE shih tzu/apsalapsa mixed breeds. They are all small, about the size of normal sized house cats. Well when i visit her on the weekends, all i hear are their barking from when they play with each other. They dont do it all day but when they do, its rampant and can go on for an hour, at random parts of the day. I bought this hoping it will shut them up. I was dead wrong. When i first got the device. I tested it. The dogs would be in their little gated playpen and i would sneak up near them while they were just looking around aimlessly and i would press the device's manual button. Their reaction was just a surprised, wondered look. You know how dogs tilt their head at an angle if they see or hear a funny sound. Well thats all the bark control is good for, to make your dog make weird face angles. I thought maybe i should just wait til they actually bark, because thats what this is meant for. So i placed the device next to the couch, which is literally 6 feet from their little play pen. And before you know it, they still barked and the device didnt phase them AT ALL. Its like i took the battery out of the damn thing. All 4 of them just barking away at each other, or when someone rings the door bell. They just barked and barked like nothing is wrong. I told my mom this is seriouly bad and they need to be trained otherwise they'll never stop barking. So we're thinking about getting those shock collars afterall. Word of advice, DONT buy this unless you have probably ONE dog that occasionally barks, but you want him/her to stop barking when it is really not necessary.

Wouldn’t recommend it.

El aparato promete ayudar a disminuir los ladridos de los perros, yo lo utilicé en casa y no noté ninguna diferencia, me funcionó más colocar una EchoDot en el area de los perros y ponerles música relajante ( y básicamente cuesta lo mismo). Le pongo 3 estrellas por qué tal vez a alguien si le pueda funcionar

Es wird nicht DIESES abgebildete Gerät geliefert sondern zwei kleine Ähnliche jedoch ohne manuellen Auslöser. Hier sollte der Anbieter mal das Foto aktualisieren

Doesn’t work on our 4 month old puppy. Instead it made her bark even more!

As the title says really: the dogs can be barking right on top of it and nothing; It does go off so it's working but the dogs don't even notice anything whatsoever. The dogs are still barking, the neighbour is still annoyed and we are still stressed over it. A complete and total waste of money. What a disappointment!
