My backyard has a six foot block wall and the dogs next door bark constantly. Will this whistle work i this situation or will the wall stop the sound?

The wall will not prevent the dogs from hearing the whistle but the whistle will not stop the dogs from barking as you hoped.

The dogs WILL hear it and, as in my neighborhood, they will probably bark more. You can buy things that will bother their they're ears (not permanently just while they are barking). Look up NO BARK PRODUCTS. GOOD LUCK

No , I don't think it will work. We purchased one for the neighbors dogs who are small dogs that bark constantly, and put it as close as I could, which is about 40-50 feet away, which is what they say. The problem is the dogs move farther away than that. Anyway, it is just sitting out there now, and the dogs are barking.

Once the dog realizes what the noise means, he will react from a longer distance, but, at first, I found 5 or 6 feet was necessary. Now my dog will hear my command and the noise, and stop barking right away from 40 feet or more (our property is only one acre). Note: I used the word noise, but humans can't hear anything!

Yes however, my neighbor's keep covering it because they can hear every setting volume across the street. Its not effective on the animals anyway. Only neighbor's.

Actually, it doesn't seem to work at all. The sound supposedly goes off when the dog is close to the to the unit. The *&&*$%$ barking dog next door pays no attention to the alleged high pitched sound which only the dog is supposed to hear. Save your money.

It won't bother the neighbors but you can hear it. It beeps fairly long like 15 beeps or so. There is like 20 second delay before it will activate again. We live in the country and have to unplug it at night because the deer keep triggering it.

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.

It's supposed annoy all rodents with sensitive hearing, from guinea-pigs to squirrels. It works like a dog whistle. However, It didn't work for me or my mice problem in the garage. I resorted to cats and enclosed sticky traps.

The white noise setting pretty much does, although some of the other settings may not, as the sound is more intermittent. However, I'm not sure if it would block neighbors from hearing you, although probably, but only if you place it near the wall you share with them. It will block you from hearing them, though.

Thank you for your question! This product is designed to be used in the confinements of your home. If your neighbor's dogs are outside, however, the PetSafe Deluxe Outdoor Bark Control may be a better fit for your needs!

Bliss149, realize that this isn't an air horn. It makes more of a hiss and that gets the dogs attention. The trick is to only use as much as you need- don't pull the trigger completely and don't point it at the dog, hold it behind your back. They won't have respect for you if they just see you with it in your hand, they just have respect for the device and the noise it makes if you point it at them. Start by just a small squeeze and increase the amount pull until you get your dog to respond or stop the behavior it is doing. So yes, good for an apartment. Your neighbors will not hear it.

I recommend the DOGTEK Sonic BirdHouse. It has saved my sanity! My neighbors have two outside dogs, one a German Shepherd, the other a Mastiff mix. Both about 20-25 feet from my house. They barked incessantly. I purchased the DOGTEK Sonic BirdHouse out of desperation and it has worked amazingly! I have only had to use it a total of 3 times. It is recommended that you do not leave it on at all times because a dog can become desensitized to it. Good luck! :)

I have the bell attached to the top of a back gate (on 6' fence, appx. 30 feet from rear patio door)It has a clear tone that I can hear in the rear two rooms of the houseI believe you could hear it quite well if you put it near the door, although I'm not sure of the durability of the metal attachment rod if used for your purpose, it is light as is the bell itself, the movement of the gate makes it ring easily .... I hope this is helpful to you :)

Probably. My dogs don't like sounds of any kind. This device only stops them because they can't figure out where it comes from.

I have 2 cats and two separate neighbors with big dogs that both bark a lot. The whistle does NOT bother cats in the least. In addition, the whistle does absolutely NOTHING to barking neighbor dogs. This type of whistle is for training your own dog to do things that you want. It is NOT for getting neighbor dogs to stop barking. Do not waste your money.

My neighbor's dog will stop barking when he's within 15' or so of the unit. If he goes down to the other end of the lot - about 30' away - it doesn't affect him. I'm thinking about buying a 2nd unit for that corner of the yard.
