Review on ๐Ÿ”‡ Premium PetSafe Single Room Indoor Bark Control System, Powerful Ultrasonic Anti-Bark for Dogs of Any Size by Lynn Woodcock

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Both too sensitive and not strong enough

I really wanted to be one of the unusual people who like it, but it didn't have to be. TV at normal volume in the living room next to the hallway). Therefore, it is constantly triggered by noises that are not barking. I could turn it off when we want to watch TV and then turn it back on, but the noise cancellation isn't a sufficient deterrent for our dogs. We have a hand trainer that silences them instantly at 20 feet, but they rarely stop to do so. To give you an idea of perspective, one of the dogs is incredibly sensitive to harsh sounds, and will run to his cabin (not to mention the aforementioned hand trainer in the same room) at the sound of a bottle rocket miles away, but she doesn't even flinch the shoulders. To top it off, I have less than a month of battery life before it completely stops working (and no, it's not more efficient on new, fresh batteries). It's always possible that I've received a defective unit, but based on other reviews I find that unlikely. If they update the device to respond to a specific dog bark sound profile (my Nest cameras pick it up perfectly!) and increase (adjust) the correction tone, I can try again.
