Outdoor bark controls? Do they work well? Login/Join

Good morning, SF.

Anyone have experience with these "no-bark in a birdhouse" units?
Like this, at Petsmart.



There's no talking sense with/into my three-hound neighbor, and I'm wondering if putting up one (or more) of these would do the neighborhood any good.

Thanks, all.




God bless America.

I used one years ago. Different brand but it did work until the neighbor moved. I do not know if all dogs will react the same.

^^^ Same here. I had a good neighbor who's dog would not listen to reason.

Asked if I could hang one on his side of the fence and it cut the barking down by 80% - 90%

Will this work on the neighbor's wife, too?

I'll try it and let you know if it works on our neighbor's little yappy dogs. If it works, it will be $30 well spent.

We have a similar one that is hanging on our side of a chain link fence. I think it's caused the neighbor's pack to bark in places other than under our bedroom window.

My Granddaughter and our dog both hate it. But it's easy enough for them to avoid, and is only offensive while hit with a blast of noise.

I love it.

Following up here because I bought one of these devices.


While I'm hearing less barking I'm not sure if that's because the device is working or if it's due to the fact the neighbor hasn't been leaving the yippy dog outside long due to the hot weather.


It may be working as I've been outside a couple of times when the dog barked, but stopped fairly quickly. I have it cranked up to the max setting and pointed directly at the kennel between our houses about 20' away and 3' above ground level.


I'll need more time to be sure that it's actually working.

Thank you for the update!

I'm hearing less of the mayhem right now, but maybe that's because it's hot outside and the rowdies aren't out as much.

Like you, I think for $30 it will be money well spent.




God bless America.
