 PIECE OF JUNK-TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY July 2, 2008
This item does not work....plain and simple. I'm almost embarrassed that I spent the $30 and the cost of a 9v battery for such a useless item. My dog just continually barked through the automatic and hand pressed features. I also find it interesting that the red light goes off when the battery is out, not when the item is activated (that would be helpful for humans who can't hear it to know that it is actually working).
If the product is marketed as something humans can't hear, then how would anyone really know if it was working or not.....if a tree falls in the woods but no one's around.....
Didn't Work for JRT June 25, 2008
This product did not diminish my dog's barking. He's a Jack Russell terrier, so maybe they are more stubborn?
If possible, I think a person should either borrow one & try it out, or buy it at a place where it would be easy to return, in case your dog is like mine.
i was naive May 20, 2008
I read the reviews before I purchased this item and hoped for the best because when my GSP gets bored when I'm at work he barks and I come home to hate mail taped on my apartment door. So with great optimism I plugged the battery into the simple unit and waited until something made him bark. Initially he cocked his head to indicate he heard a noise but he went right on barking. Two weeks later the battery needed to be changed and he acts as if he doesn't even hear any "ultrasonic" beep. I wish I hadn't spent the money. I wish I hadn't such high hopes. I wish I hadn't thrown away the box the unit arrived in, otherwise I'd return it and ask for my money back.
Waste of money May 10, 2008
I purchased this product to help control my dogs out of control barking. In the beginning, as long as I stood there and pressed the button did it slow down the barking, but not stop it. This product is suppose to turn on by itself when the dogs bark but I never found this to be true.
A complete waste of money in my opinion. I will now always look at the the ratings before purchasing anything!
Doesn't work for our Dachshund May 9, 2008
We ordered this as a first step in trying to get our mini-dachshund to stop barking ALL the time. We set it on the table by our front door, but it has been ineffective. He doesn't seem to notice, unless I pick it up by hand and activate close to him while he is barking. Even then, it doesn't get him to stop. So for our purposes, it has done nothing. I lent to a friend so they can try on their pomeranian, and it too has not worked at halting the barking for them either. Waste of money.
