| No Bark Devices I just ordered one of those ultrasonic pet safe no bark devices to keep at the office...I take both my babys to work with me and everytime a customer comes in Gucci the smallest one goes crazy barking. We tried the no bark device and it doesn't seem to bother Taz ...but Gucci will run and hide in a corner and shake for an hour after it sounds off...Why is she doing this? Could the ultasonic sound be hurting her ears or is she just scared? It says it is completly safe for animals...Please help!!!! I want her to stop barking...but I don't want to see her scared to death or hurting!!! What do yall think I should do?

| Yes, it hurts their ears. That's how it works, unfortunately.

I didn't know that it could really hurt their ears...It only says that it is an unpleasent sound but that it is completly safe. I've tried everything and this was my last resort. But if it makes Gucci act this way, I'm not going to use it anymore. Thanks for the responses.
