"This training tool has been developed to discourage your pet’s barking in a safe and humane way both indoors and outdoors*. It is great for your dog, a kennel environment or your neighbor's dog! It's automatic!
How it works
1. The unit is activated when the internal microphone picks up the constant barking sound from the dog.
2. The activated unit emits a two-second ultrasonic sound that can only be heard by the dog.
3. Startled by the high-pitched sound, the dog should stop barking, as it will associate its bark with this unpleasant noise. "
I picked up the unit at petsmart. It's been working great for me. He will bark 2 - 3 times then stops completly. Once he learns not to bark when I put him in his room then I will remove the unit. I do know that some individuals have mentioned that it doesn't work for them. Just a suggestion for you to try. |
i just purchased this based on your recommendation and will let you know how it works out!
