| Sure Stop Bark Breaker Has anyone ever tried the Sure Stop Bark Breaker?? It is a device that plugs into the wall and omits a high pitch only the dog can hear so it startles the dog to stop barking. I am looking into purchasing one it is 29.99 so pretty reasonable but I have my doubts it will work. If anyone knows anything about this please let me know. Thanks |

| I have not seen that one however I did purchase one that sits on the counter and does the same thing. I also purchased a plug-in that omits an odor, only the dog can smell, that is suppose to smell like the mother and cause a calming effect. It is called Confort Zone. Can't really say if either work because he still barks when I leave after 2yrs! I have tried everything! You name it I bought it except the collars. Won't use them. I do think he only barks now when I leave just to get the last word in. My neighbors never said anything. He is quiet when I am at home. I make sure of that. They are a challenge every single day! But certainly worth it. |

| I bought the Barker Breaker and had high hopes for it. It worked for about 3 days until my dogs got used to the high pitched noise and then they just learned to bark over the noise! Imagine how loud THAT was!! I finally turned the Barker Breaker off and am still trying to find a way to make them stop. I've tried everything that I've heard or read about. |

| I'm not sure about the products out there to stop them from barking, but I do know our little girl barks a LOT! I find she's also willful in other areas, such as obeying commands or sometimes just deciding it's okay to pee wherever she likes - when she KNOWS better! I finally spoke to my vet about it, and he gave me the name of a trainer that he says is fabulous. She even makes house calls! She'll be here on Monday, and we'll see what happens.....time for Pilla and Mom to go to class!
