Worth the Money!!! January 4, 2009 Kristina A. Ludwig (York, PA) After much research and reading some horrible reviews, I decided to take a chance with this product anyway. I have a Dachshund, Shiba Inu, and a Chihuahua. The only one that doesn't stop barking immediately is the Dachshund. Usually she'll stop after about 3 or 4 barks though - which is a huge improvement!!!! She taught the other 2 to bark. I do use this indoors instead of outdoors. The best part is, I'll turn it on only when they start barking, or when I anticipate company soon. Once they see me go to the birdhouse, they magically become model dogs. It seems everyone is having a different experience with this product, but if you are desperate for some peace and quiet, I would recommend this product.
Has changed our lives! December 30, 2008 N. Simmons (Los Angeles, CA USA) We have four dogs so, based on the other reviews, I thought we'd get results with at least one or two of them. Our dogs would stand at the fence and bark when we left the house and again when we came home - annoying to us so I can't imagine what it was like for the neighbors. This started working immediately. Our beagle (obviously the biggest problem) got out one *woof* and went running back into the house. The only dog it hasn't affected is our 14 year old because I don't think she can hear it. The only downside is that any really loud noise will set it off and we live near a busy street. So I turned it off once they were reconditioned. After about a month of having it off, the beagle started barking outside again but I just turned it back on and, after half a "beagle bay", she came running back in. Now I just need to find something similar for inside and we'll be good to go. I wish we had gotten this a long time ago!
Petsafe Doghouse December 26, 2008 ldb (Scottsdale, AZ) PetSafe Outdoor Ultrasonic Bark DeterrentI give it a big zero and my dog isn't hard of hearing. However, I have two cousins who have used it and have been very successful. That leads me to beleive that my dogs bark somehow doesn't trigger it or he is just the Devil and enjoys waking me up at 0530. I am not sorry I tried it and since I do know that it works on some dogs, it is worth a try. "Just didn't work on my pooch"
Works on dogs, probably not on your spouse ! December 22, 2008 Alpine Skier (Vacationland - ME) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
OK, So the neighbors do not appreciate our Westie and Cairn terriers as much as we do. They don't bark in the house, but they like to run from property line to property line waking everything up that is in the woods and yard. Birds, Turkeys, Deer,... keep them busy, but they also bark at anything that moves - even the grass and leaves. So we set two of these units at the back property corners and the dogs now do their barking in the front yard.
WHY DIDN'T I GET THIS A LONG TIME AGO? December 20, 2008 Linda K. Greene (CENTRAL PA) THIS IS THE BEST THING THERE EVER WAS!!! I HAVE 5 SMALL DOGS...AND BEING LITTLE GUYS....THEY LOVE TO BARK AT ANYTHING THE MOVES!! THE FIRST TIME I PUT THIS IN THE YARD, IT STOPPED THEM IN THEIR TRACKS, OR SHOULD I SAY STOPPED THEM IN THEIR BARKS?? YES....IT DOES HAVE TO BE IN THEIR RANGE, BUT IT CERTAINLY DOES THE JOB! I AM DELIGHTED WITH IT!!! I NOW HAVE 4 VERY NICE QUIET LITTLE DOGS...AND ONE LITTLE GIRL WHO IS STILL LEARNING! THANK YOU FOR OUR PEACE AND QUIET!
