Will work on barking dogs?

Yes it will, but I only saw two dogs react to it. Little ones, not big dogs. I am NOT a dog lover, so the best description I can give you is a 2 to 5 pound dog, each. They love to urinate towards the front of the house and bark, but with this on they rub their ears with their paw, sneeze, and walk away fast. No harm at all, just irritating to them. But, please be careful as if you stay there long enough, the sound won't get you right away, but will definitaly turn your stomach. Put it on and then leave, covers a wide space.

I sent the thing back. It didn't work at all from a distance of 40 feet. My best advice in dealing with barking dogs is call the police. There are laws concerning this behavior.

The dogs WILL hear it and, as in my neighborhood, they will probably bark more. You can buy things that will bother their they're ears (not permanently just while they are barking). Look up NO BARK PRODUCTS. GOOD LUCK

My husband used this on a neighbors large dog that was always barking and it really worked. Your dog will probably hear it. Make sure you follow the directions and use at a safe distance from either dog. It MUST be used according to the distance the instructions provide. We used it on our barking small breed puppy so she would not disturb our neighbors during her 6AM walk. and at first it worked great, but then she did not react at all. Seems to work on some dogs, and it is impossible to determine which ones without buying the device and trying it.

I would think so. The setting goes up to 10 and will give the dog a good jolt. We never put ours above 3, though the dog is small. At 3 one jolt is enough to stop the dog from barking again.

A collar is not your best investment to stop barking. I've done some research on this, even though I have a very quiet dog. Zero barking is not normal, neither is excessive barking. I very much suggest finding and hiring a reputable trainer in your area to help if you have a 'big barker' on your hands.

I had zero luck with this thing. The only thing that worked for me was talking to the neighbors and/or calling the cops. Our township has regulations about barking dogs and I took advantage of them. It's a shame you have to call the law on your neighbors but it may be your only recourse dealing with people who lack common sense.

No, this collar works by detecting a barking sound AND a simultaneous vibration (from the dog's vocal cords). Therefore, it will only shock the dog who actually barked. Hope that helps!

Hi Dana. If you only have one dog I would say it probably would work. But as we have three dogs, they shake their heads and sense its there but one drowns out the other when barking so is ineffective for us.

Yes just point it at the dog and press the button..works ok at a distance also..just hold it down for a second..you wont hear anything but you should notice your dogs ears perk up..and they should stop barking..my girlfriend uses the one I bought her on her chiahauhaus and they got trained very fast using it..

I'm sorry I never had a chance to use it. I started calling the police every night since the first of this year because of the noise,(they didn't seem to be doing anything) so I ordered the bark control just in case the police didn't correct the situation. They did & I gave it away to my brother. He was dealing with 3 barking dogs. 2 dogs stop barking, 1 still barks, sister in law thinks it's deaf. My neighbor no longer has the dog & we are enjoying peace and quiet after 2 years of nonstop barking. Good luck to you.

Dear Efrain. it only works wwith bartteries. I do not recommend, because it doesn't perform as announced. The dogs don't stop barking, when they hear the pitch they bark louder.

Sorry I don't know. I use mine outside but without much luck with the barking but I think that it has helped with the howling issue.

Thank you for your question! This system is designed to respond to barking only, but it is possible that certain howls could trigger the device.

Yes, it will work through a window. I have not personally used it to control barking. The only problem I see with using it like you ask it that the dog really needs a verbal command to go with the GENTLE reminder from the Dogtra. Otherwise I would be concerned that the dog may not fully understand what's going on, but would I'm sure start to associate the reminder buzz with his barking. Sometimes it can really upset the dog and they can get confused and even more anxious and barky when they are zapped. It really has to be used carefully and with the guidance of a professional dog trainer.

Possibly. This is an ultrasonic device so it will depend upon if your dog is responsive to the noise.
