Neighbor's dog dashes to its upper deck, barks at every passing person, 20-30 x each day. Help!

I bought this for inside and the bird house version for outdoors. The deluxe outside worked wonders but this one was useless. Wish I had bought two outdoor ones instead.

I have not tried the out door version but the indoor version stops my dog from barking right away. So maybe the out door version pointed towards neighbors house? Or if you are on go terms with the neighbor suggest the Outdoor version of this Petsafe Ultrasonic to them. However, I have found that some older dogs do not seem to hear or respond to the tone possibly do to age related hearing loss.

I don't recomend this item. I put it 5 feet from my front window where my two dogs like to stand and bark and they didn't seem to notice.

Depends on the dog. One of my dogs is terrified by it while the others bark less but not completely

Sorry, not sure what your question is. But if you want to use that to get your neighbors dog to stop barking, I really do not think it will work. It barely worked while less than a foot away from my dog's ears. At some point, they became immune to it and we went with a different option. But the option we went with requires a collar, and spray into the dogs face area of citronella smell. Works wonders!! I hope I answered your question, if not please let me know and I will respond.

I wish that I had something good to say about this product. It just doesn't work for me and both of my dogs keep barking. Very disappointed in this product.

It may help some, but I would not say it would eliminate all the sound. It seems like the dog is lonely, and the owner should be responsible for annoying you.

the dog may not hear so well due to breed. dogs over the years have been bread to do different thing for man. hunt by smell sight or sound. my unit works ok but there is a pack of small dogs next door.they do stop barking after a min or so. I wish my neighbors would just move I can only hope. Joe

Did you put the flags up and train him on leash? Walk the perimeter every day a couple times a day for a couple weeks. The training will pay off. We went through the same issues with our Weimaraner. Do not use the shock feature to train. Use the audible signal. The dog does not recognize or "Respect" the fence if he is still bolting through it. Be patient!

Hi Lauren,If you put the unit outside, it won't bother the neighbor's bark happy dogs, or the guinea pig.

It will help with howling but not whining/wimpering. If the dog is more than 30 to 40 feet away from the unit, it might not work. If nothing else, the dog will probably avoid that area but still bark on the other side of the yard.

The sound is activated by bark. My neighbor's dog will come near the device, but as soon as it barks the dog heads off in the opposite direction.

Our pooch seems to be generalizing his learning. In the house, he barks once with the collar on, and maybe twice with it off. If we show him the collar, he stops. I haven't tried walking him now without the collar because it helps so much.

Same thing with our dogs. I wonder if they just adapt to it and bark anyway. I guess the noise they hear is not strong enough to be a deterrent. It might work with some dogs.

This device will start barking constantly after six months of use regardless whether there is someone in its trigger range or not. If neighbors can hear the barking through the walls, they will definitely complain about the constant barking.

I think it depends on each dog. For the 1st week out dog barked once looked at it & walked away. After a whole she would bark at it non stop.

I have a similar problem with my jealous Australian Shephard. I have considered using the collar BUT, it would mean watching the dog all day until he began acting up. Are you willing to spend all your free time watching him? I'm trying to come up with a better idea.

Our neighbor has these and they are obnoxious! My parents don't hear them as well because it is a higher pitch and the older lady that has them assures us that there is NO noise, but I beg to differ. You cannot hear them inside our house, but as soon as I step outside (even if I'm on the other side of our yard) I can hear them. They also drive the dogs nuts causing them to bark every time they hear it!

Yes this will help a lot with her staying in the yard, I'm not sure about the barking though, because our puppies are not big barkers, thankfully! But this is probably one of the best tools I've gotten on amazon to help train my dogs. I have 2 Great Pyrenees puppies, so I know how stubborn dogs can be. Hope this helps you! :)

Thank you I appreciate the input. The view from the people who have responded so far is quite mixed. I guess it ultimately comes down to the dog. I have a very active Brittany Spaniel and I fear she is just too head strong to stop this behavior but will give it a try.

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.

I'm not sure. All I know is it only took 3 times and my dog stopped barking at other dogs when we went on a walk.
