Bark Off Ultrasonic Training Aid

I've had it for a couple of weeks and a couple of thoughts on how to get better results from this. Used properly, it's a good training tool.

First, I would not leave it running 24/7. For those who do, you'll have very short battery life which might account for people saying that it stopped working after a couple of days. Also, since any noise will trigger the device you may be barraging your dog with a very confusing training message when it goes off from noise from the television while your dog is completely silent. If there isn't a cause/effect, the device will be worthless. It's also cruel to leave it on constantly when other noises easily trigger the device, as there's no reason to be subjecting your dog to this for any extended period of time. It clearly affects some dogs, which is why we're reading stories of dogs cringing in a corner perfectly understandable, if this thing is going off constantly when your dog isn't barking.

I have Pomeranians who barked hysterically when someone came to the door or when I was about to let them outside. Using this device, I ended this behavior in less than a week. Simple when the barking started, I switched on the device for 5-10 seconds. This stopped the barking. If it started again, I'd switch it on for another 5-10 seconds. After a few days all I had to do was display the device without turning it on at all and the barking stopped. Not all dogs are as sensitive to it as mine are, so your mileage may vary. But the instructions that come with this device are simply wrong and a misuse of it (and almost an abuse of your dog when it's so easily triggered by noise ANY noise). Use it manually when it's appropriate to do so and you'll not only greatly extend your battery life but you'll get good results from it.

My frisky, intelligent dog was turned into a neurotic, whimpering animal within an hour of this product being turned on. She went to the farthest corner of the house and crawled into the corner to escape it's possible continuous sound.

How does a human know if it ever turns off? You can't hear it.

With Bark Off on, my dog would not even enter the house or be tempted with treats. This is a poor quality product. Money can't replace the damage this Bark Off has done to my pet. It was only turned on (without my knowledge) for a few evening hours. I had no idea what had traumatized my dog so. If you need a product like this, don't be cheap. Spend a few dollars and get one that at least lights up when on so YOU know it is working. By all means observe your dogs behavior and avoid tormenting them. This Bark Off item is not for pet lovers.

By the way, she never barks anymore.

Not even to greet me......

As stated in the title: It's a great product. I'm tired of reading bad reviews by people who can't even spell correctly. I don't care if you're an engineer and took the product apart. I'm a retired engineer and realize there is no such thing as zero defects. You have the opportunity to return defective merchandise for refund or replacement. The one I received worked as soon as I turned it on, and yes my dog stopped barking and ran to the far corner of my home. With a little coaxing she came back into the room and found out the sound was no longer there which is proof that the device turns off. She hasn't barked since, but I will monitor her reaction to the Bark Off the next time she barks. I'm willing to bet that she won't bark as much as she did before I received the Bark Off. I highly recommend this product.

I bought this product after seeing favorable reviews on the web, I did not know I could go to Amazon.com and rate a product. I spent $30.00 for the product, one regular and one of the platinum ones (BYGO) and $30.0 for postage (they got me on that big time). At first I thought it was working, my collie barked once and stopped and I'm thinking how great this is, I can sleep at night. My collie does not bark in the house unless the neighbors yippy dogs start barking but I also have a small yippy dog and this did not stop her at all. Nor did it stop my daughters 2 dogs that live next door from barking at my horse at 5 am. I hope these reviews help someone else to save their money.

As the owner of two one-year-old Chihuahua boys, I definitely needed something to train these yappers to stop yapping at ordinary sounds. The Bark Off arrived quickly and worked well at first. My dogs stopped immediately after hearing the sound. Now, I have to rattle it or blow in the little hole on the device for it to emit a sound. The adverts are misleading because the sound is definitely audible to human ears; it makes a loud "click". I also find that it can't simply be left on because it interprets every sound as a bark and starts to give me a headache and wear out my dogs' ears. All in all, I'm sad to say that this product isn't worth it, but I gave it three stars because it does 'work' just under certain terms.
