Humane No Shock Rechargable Beep & Vibration Bark Collar for Dogs

I don't write reviews...ever! But as I was on my walk in the park with my incredibly barky, loud, squeaky dachshund mix this morning I couldn't wait to get home and write this one. He's a weiner and he's a puppy...and he makes noise literally ALL of the time. He's been driving me and my husband crazy since he came to live with us. Don't get me wrong, we love the little monster...but we really had no idea just how much weiners bark. So in comes the bark collar out of desperation. We really didn't want to do it, even though they call it humane it just seemed like we would be dampening his spirit. Well let me tell you...his spirit has not been dampened one bit but his bark sure has! I put this on for the first time just this morning...he barked twice, got "vibrated"...and this has now been the quietest day we've had in almost three months! And he doesn't seem to mind which is the best part. This thing is worth the money twice over, it works great. I can't really say anything about the battery life...I've only been using it for 7 hours...but I hear it works for a couple of weeks. Doesn't matter, we plan to take it off when he goes to bed at night and put it back on in the morning. It seems like a safe item, not like a shock collar at all. The vibration doesn't even seem to bother him...he acts like we strapped a toy to his neck and he's trying to figure out why! It was simple to use, just plug it in for a couple of hours, do the easy test they gave instructions for and put it on. It's amazing that he's learned the point of it all in only a few hours. Bless whomever made this thing. Oh yeah...and sizing it to your dog is simple, just measure it when it's on and cut off the excess you don't need. Easy peasy! I recommend this to anyone who is struggling with the noise...join the quiet club...you'll thank me for this review if you do. Have a blessed, quiet day.

I run two big dogs 6 xs week. One is a beast. Goes after everything that moves. The crazy full on bark and pull at 77 pounds with muscle is brutal. This collar saved my shoulders , sanity , and other people / dogs from his alpha male bark fest !! I put it on myself to try it ( just vibrates after first beep- you can set the strength 1-5 , I use a 4 ) I have also bought his owners one to use if they have guests over... Keeps him calm , in check and so safe and no shock. Just enough vibration to alert him to calm down !! Love it !! I also referred this to my neighbor for her lab that’s a barker they use it now when they walk him and love it. Then take it off when home. I have an extra one I always keep in my car if one is not charged for backup. True story-- I was at a pet store recently and a younger woman just adopted a dog. He was going crazy in the store and outside as well. She bought a muzzle. I asked her to try something and ran to my car to grab my bark collar (very easy to adjust the size) She could not believe it worked after 4-5 barks the dog stopped, the owner was in tears of joy. The pet store we were at did not sell them only remote costly ones , and she could not afford a lot. I told her she can have it, and I ordered another that came in 2 days (love Amazon) !! So there you go..... and hey if it does not work for you you can return it!! Just saying it does help and makes a difference ( the dog I use it on is set in his ways 7 years old and acts like he is 2 -- as I said it WORKS!!

I was very skeptical of this collar. I didn't think beeps and vibration would work to control barking on our coonhound. Generally, it does. At first, it was very effective. She was somewhat confused at first and would stop barking. We have used it for a little over 2 weeks. The biggest problem we had was that she would bark at other dogs and people and anything she saw out the window. This collar has definitely controlled 90% of the barking when seeing something out the window. She has learned that with the collar on, she should not bark. However, when another dog or person walks by the house or come close, this collar is not effective. She is able to bark through all the levels and simply ignores it. There is just too much focus on what she is barking at to bother to recognize the beeps and vibration. We have worked with her to stop by giving commands and working to get her to stop when the collar alerts. The training is the key. The collar itself is not enough to control these circumstances and requires continued effort to teach her not to bark. Overall, the collar works and is helpful as a training aid. I will be getting a collar that provides static stimulation, however, simply because this collar is not enough to get my dogs attention when she is focused. We got her recently as an adult and I believe this is the first time she has had any training on not barking.

We got this so that we could open our ground floor patio doors during the hot weather which face on to the street without our dog barking a greeting to every passing dog, or uber eats delivery person. We just wanted to stop the sudden loud barking when a dog walks past. We didn't want to stop the low volume barks, grumbles, play howls etc which don't bother us and we particularly love hearing her happy play howl. So collar sensitivity was important to us so that it could differentiate between wanted and unwanted barking. When this first arrived it worked like a charm. We put it on our 15lb doodle on a low sensitivity setting so that it would only alert for loud barks, it worked great and our dog learnt within a couple of barks to not bark loud but she knew she could still do soft barks and other noises. She suffered no ill effects from the noise and never needed to get to the vibration stage, when the high pitched noise went off she instantly stopped barking and looked around confused for the source of the noise. Sadly after only 2 weeks the collar stopped working consistently. Gradually we had to keep increasing the sensitivity of the collar as it failed to pick up on her loud barking, we tightened it so that it was a more snug fit in case it had somehow loosened and we changed the batteries but neither appeared to make a difference. The sensitivity got worse and worse over time, we had to continually increase it until the collar stopped alerting altogether. In the last 2 weeks the collar has begun working intermittently, sometimes it alerts to a bark if its a super loud bark and it ignores the quieter barks. Sometimes it alerts and vibrates for even a quiet play howl or a low grumble - which we absolutely don't want an alert for. Overall this collar started well but is now effectively useless since its completely unpredictable and unreliable and doesn't allow us to control the sensitivity.

This might work for some dogs, the concept is cool. Honestly it didn’t work very well, it didn’t vibrate unless he was barking continuously. My dog barks for about 20 seconds stops and then does it again. When it did vibrate it surprised him a bit, but didn’t deter him. I wish I could find one of these that detected whining because honestly that’s what he does the most. I guess If you have a larger dog with a deep bark it might work better. Even then if you have a larger dog I don’t know that this vibration would really bother your dog. I would return it, but my dog is smaller and the strap is so damn long on it I had to cut it so he wouldn’t trip on it after I righted it.

This thing is awesome! It doesn’t shock my pup it’s just a little vibration to correct and distract from barking. I leave it pretty loose on him because I don’t like the idea of the prongs sticking into his neck but it doesn’t need to be tight to work. He barks once and it vibrates and he stops. I also only use it when nuisance barking is happening, a lot of times I just carry it with me in case he starts. The only time we have had any issues was when he was with another dog who would start barking and it would activate and vibrate on him which was a little confusing for him so we just removed it. Honestly a great HUMANE way to address random barking. Absolutely worth the money and the battery lasts a very long time between charges even if we forget to turn it off.

Very inconsistent when it goes off. On the dogs the dog is barking. Nothing happens. Take it off set it on the kitchen counter dog barks. It goes off. I cannot get this to go off consistently when the dog is barking. She barks. Nothing happens the dog next to her barks it goes off. I’m going to be looking for another one to order. This is ridiculous. And yes, it is fully charged.

My dog used to bark the second I’d leave the house up until I’d get back home. For four years I’ve tried various different bark collars, but none of them worked like this one does. He had really bad separation anxiety and his barking became such a huge problem for me for the last four years. We went through so much training and nothing was working, I am so thankful for this collar. It’s been about 2 weeks, and I have not heard him barking when I leave once. He’s a miniature schnauzer, under 20lbs and it fits his neck perfectly. The battery life seems to go pretty long since I haven’t had to charge the collar. Overall great collar, i’d recommend it heavily!!

While my dogs has a very loud and sharp bark, it seems that this collar is the most humane method of modifying a dog’s bark. With the rechargeable battery there is little need for the dog not to be wearing it. While my dog does still bark some while wearing it, it is still an improvement. It also has several levels of getting the dogs attention (by vibration) and gets progressively stronger as the barking continues, and then resets itself to the lower levels after a period of time after the barking has stopped.

I wasn't sure if this would work. I have a springer spaniel who hates to be left alone and cries and barks as soon as I leave the house, annoying the neighbours. This collar works great, with the vibrations confusing him. No more barking or crying when he's alone for short periods. Very impressed

I have a 11 year old long haired German shepherd. We recently moved and our new residence received a lot of foot traffic walking past where she would bark at everyone. After putting this collar on for one day her barking has reduced dramatically. She will bark once then hear the beeping and not bark again. Incredible how quickly it worked for an older dog who has had the same habit forever. Highly recommend.

This thing works. I wonder to myself sometimes why I didn't buy this earlier. But it worked on one dog (barks at night for fun) but didn't work in my other dog (barking from anxiety in car)...

Ayant un chien sourd qui n’entend pas lorsque que je lui demande d’arrêter de japper, ce collier sans choc a déclenchement automatique est idéal ! Toutefois, très sensible car se déclenche quand son frère jappe ou grogne près de lui :/
