Bark Arrester September 17, 2007 R. Potter (West Coast, U.S.A.) 112 out of 115 found this review helpful
We've been bothered by a neighbor's dog that comes out periodically day and night and just barks for 10 to 30 minutes -- usually facing our house. We got this product, found a spot in the trees facing the dog, and set it up. It's really worked as advertised. The dog starting barking, as usual, but then seemed to bark fewer times, and with less noise. As three weeks have passed, we hear the dog give one or two "test" yelps (more than barks) presumably to see if it still gets "zapped' by the machine. Since it does, it stops barking immediately. No more gritting teeth (for us) for 10 to 30 minutes, as before. So, I'm delighted with this and wholeheartedly recommend it.
OMG, why did'nt I buy this months ago November 8, 2007 Michael Felkel (los angeles) 46 out of 48 found this review helpful
If you have dogs like mine that bark just for fun, over EVERYTHING, and you want ton fix it buy this birdhouse. It worked instantly! We have 3 very vocal dogs, a german sheppard (THEY ARE NOTORIOUS BARKERS)and 2 little yippy dogs. It has even helped with their indoor barking, they definately think twice before they do it. I am not telling you anything but the truth, I wish I had bought this months/yrs ago. It has helped even our neighbors dog who would get it a bark-off with our dogs. Now they are angels. It has only been up for about 14 hrs. and I feel compelled to promote this product to anyone considering buying it. It is well worth the money!
I have my yard back November 17, 2007 Dano from Houston 30 out of 31 found this review helpful
"This product is fantastic. I have my yard back. The world's most annoying dogs and their owners have become good neighbors in spite of themselves. When I placed this in my yard, the neighbor's dogs immediately came over to the fence to bark and growl as they always do. After the very first bark they backed away from the fence. Now when I go out into my back yard, they may bark tentatively once or twice from the far side of the yard, but usually not. These are the same dogs that would try to bite through the fence, now they don't even approach it."
New device in the barking stopper market February 18, 2008 lilian brooks 13 out of 14 found this review helpful
As my dog getting older she became quite assertive. She sometime uses prolonged barking in the yard to demand immediate attention for things like walking, feeding or coming in. Being equally assertive, one of my neighbors had written a few complain letters to me, threatening to bring up the dog barking issue to the city council. So I searched on Amazon for a barking stopper, and found this new and only device among numerous shock collars. The reviews were scanty, but positive. I then bought it because one, I hate shocking collars; two, it's hard to find a non-invasive training collar for a large dog anyway; three, this device does not require human interaction such as being there to push a button. It worked wonderfully - I hang it in my yard and set the sensitivity at the middle, considering my puppy is deaf. That day she barked twice and stopped immediately. Since then, her incessant barking has been reduced to occasional singular announcements that my neighbor could tolerate
PLEASE READ THIS CAUTION!! February 12, 2009 Heather (seattle, wa United States) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
We've had this about a week and it is working! Our 10 year old Great Pyrenees is quite a barker, and I've never been able to train it out of her. I love this product, but PLEASE BEWARE! I didn't realize the vacuum cleaner was setting it off and my poor dog was suffering needlessly. Also, clapping and other loud noises, even loud voices can set it off. I had it sitting on the kitchen table, and when we set something on the table it went off.

br /I wish I had found this product 10 years ago. She's even stopped barking at the mailman. But please make sure you pay attention to what else could set off the controller (it has a red light indicator to let you know) as it really does seem to hurt a dog's ears.
