The PetSafe Outdoor Bark Control unit, posing as a decorative little “birdhouse,” is in reality a powerful anti-bark device. When a dog starts to bark within the 50’ range of the unit (which can be set to a shorter range as well) it will detect the sound. The PetSafe Outddor Bark Control then responds with a ultrasonic, high-frequency noise. Humans won’t be able to hear it but a dog’s sensitive hearing will pick it up and find it disturbing. This stops the dog from barking. When he or she does, the unpleasant noise stops as wall. Eventually your (or your neighbor’s) pet will learn to that barking is the cause of the unpleasant sount and will refrain from barking.
The PetSafe Outdoor Bark Control Birdhouse’s heavy-duty design is resistant to snow and rain and will function for years to come. It runs on a 9-volt battery (not included) and comes equipped with a warning light to alert you when the battery is running low.
You will love listening to the silence!
I have a 4 month old miniature schnauzer who would bark and howl when I would put him in the backyard. I'm sure my neighbors did not appreciate the noise, and I was beginning to stress out about it also. A co-worker recommended this product. I bought one, turned it on level 1 and put him outside and I watched him through the window. One bark, and he whipped his head around like "What was that?!?" A few seconds later, he barked once again and did the same thing -- he seemed startled, but not in any discomfort. No more barking in the backyard since!!! I am happy, my neighbors are sleeping, and my puppy is quiet in the backyard!
