1 out of 5 stars Just Buy a Citronella Collar   November 16, 2008
Alana Foley (Maine)
WE were hopeful that this product would work on our 7-month old doxi- terrier mix. He is about 12 pounds and is a rescue dog with some separation anxiety. He barked at night, every night. We had done our part, training him with various "non-tool" methods. This was our first tool and it let us down. He just looked at it. I think he even barked MORE. We bought a citronella collar, let him wear it in off mode for 4 days, then turned it on - and prayed. IT WORKED! Thank God. We are sleeping at night It literally works every single time. So, don't buy this or any other ultrasonic device. Just get a citronella collar!! Feel free to contact me with questions.


1 out of 5 stars Ineffective...even with small terriers   August 27, 2008
J. Jaros (Issaquah, WA United States)
Complete failure. Useless even with little 20 lb. terriers: four Cairns, two Scotties, and one Norwich. They could care less. No one even noticed except me!

My friends tried it with other breeds (larger)...no go. Nothing.



1 out of 5 stars worked for 2 seconds   July 29, 2008

We have a yorkie who barks at people walking by the window. The first time this went off, he looked at it. That was it. Barking habits stayed the same.


1 out of 5 stars PIECE OF JUNK-TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY   July 2, 2008
Hannah L. Davis (New York, NY)
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.....



2 out of 5 stars Didn't Work for JRT   June 25, 2008
Rena Young (Irving, TX)
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.
