Review on Dive into Silence: Dogtek Sonic Bird House Bark Control Outdoor/Indoor - Enhanced Version by Ruth Garcia

I bought this because my 1 year old beagle barked every time I went outside to do gardening or in the garage to do laundry. I didn't want him with me all the time. I was wondering how to know if it works if I can't hear it. At first I didn't want to use it because I thought it might be mean. Finally I turned it on and went to wash. He barked once, and then no more sound came from him. I went to check it out and found my other bitch huddled in the street where she ran away when there was a noise. I only use it when absolutely necessary due to another dog being injured by thunder etc and now this. But if you have a nuisance dog this works to stop barking. The beagle is whimpering and it won't stop him. But the whining is much more bearable than his bark, which pops up every time I move out of his line of sight. So if you're wondering if it works, I'd say yes. And it's good to teach your dog not to bark when you have it on and later learn to stop barking when it's off because he never knows when I'll turn it on. It's a learning tool and Sammy is a fast learner. giggle
