Good Life Bark Control Pro

I read the reviews where many were skeptical and so I was too, but I also evaluated a competing product that's 2-3 times more. With the 90-day return policy I thought it was worth trying even though I'd give up the 3+ year warranty. I live next door to 4 pit bulls and 2 bulldogs that are in kennels. The dogs will break into a chorus of barks that will last for 5 min or more at the slightest noise. We spend a lot of time outdoors on our deck and gazebo and have put up with the noise for years. Using our own musing does not drown out the barking. I used a laser measuring device to show the kennels are 53-60 feet away. I mounted the device at a height of 6 feet and my only clear shot is throw the leaves you see. I couldn't believe how the controller worked immediately. I continued to test them by banging my trash cans and the dogs occasionally barked or not all--all I could say was "wow"! Also noticed how well it worked when i noticed today they were barking incessantly; when I investigated, the 9V battery was dead because the green LED did not come on. As expected, the dogs kept barking while I went to replace the battery. As soon as it was back in place, the barking dropped to just one dog barking for under 30 seconds but the others would not join in. All I can say is it works and only wish I would have done this sooner. I cut out the bottom of a plastic basket from one of those dollar stores to keep the heavy rain out and so it won't void the warranty--the basket is flexible and naturally curves around the tree.

Product says it stops barking up to 150 ft. In audible mode it goes off when the wind blows up against it but won't detect dogs barking unless they are within 10 feet of it. I have 4 dogs. And sometimes it hears it's own echo and goes off repeatedly and not shut off? I've adjusted the sensitivity from low to all the way up but it doesn't seem to work. I have two of them, one on one side of my property and one on the other and they do the exact same thing. Sometimes they go off with no sound around at all. Tested at several locations and they just don't seem to work properly. I live on 3 acres out in the boonies. I don't know, not worth the money if you ask me as they don't seem to work. Instead of not barking they just don't want to go outside now because they just randomly go off for no apparent reason at all. Adding another issue to this. I installed brand new 9 volt batteries. Instructions say they will last about a week initially while the dogs learn. However, on both my units the batteries died within 24 hours. The remote control works really good though. Looks like returning these will be a pain. Not worth the money, don't buy. I think I will turn the sensitivity all the way down and just use the remote but that defeats the purpose since you have to be personally involved in the training. Construction is cheap and they are not water resistant.

Honestly, dogs are still barking. I think it might curve it a bit. But not super effective for me. I have been trying at mess around with placement and sensor levels. To troubleshoot. Since, YouTube reviews were so favorable for this product. But as of months of use now. I really haven’t gotten great results. As dogs still bark . But maybe less ?? Needs batteries pretty often. Which I knew . But it’s a pain. Has a cord. Unless you have a clear shot . Next to an outlet . You will need a extension cord. As cord provided is short. I haven’t bought any of the cheaper options available. But I’d say maybe give them a shot. This is not a magic wand . And as a said . Not convinced it’s very effective. Based on my experience. And it’s pricey!

This device did help with the nuisance barking (barking for no reason, boredom, etc.), but did not prevent the dog from barking whenever people approached or cars came close. The manufacturer's website actually says it will only help with nuisance barking. I've used this for two different groups of dogs, and the first group it did seem to stop most of their barking, but the second group it only stopped some of the barking. One dog in particular refuses to comply. Seems like some dogs learn better than others, and some dogs are just guard dogs and don't care. I'd probably still buy again, but with the awareness that it may not work depending on the dog. I do think the device works, just not on all dogs. Depends on how their owner's have trained them to behave, whether directly or indirectly through their actions when people approach.

I had high hopes for this, after dealing with loud agressive nonstop barking neighbor dogs for years. And like a miracle, after setting it up the first day/time, it immediately seemed to work, the dogs stopped barking, and I had peaceful quiet for the first time in years. It was unfortunately short-lived. I don’t know if the dogs got used to it or what, but they started right back up on about the third day. I had it plugged in so it wasn’t a battery issue. I made sure all the volume settings were adjusted correctly. I read all the instructions and tips in the comments. Feel like I wasted my money for something that dogs just get used to and ignore after a few days.

فاشل

feels cheap in design the mains cable is too short the construction is abit inferior it does the job works but mains cable too short also not an english plug, the battery lasted a couple of days i have it on mains to stop the neighbours dog

Works nice, but on dogs that are fearful and bark out of being scared or overprotective it does not work as good. The dogs we had problems with were also given treats for barking and call good dog's. Great little device.

No cumple con la finalidad, no es nada útil

The Bark Control Pro is not waterproof. Even with the "Raincoat" it recommends that you bring it inside during a rainstorm or the warrenty is not valid. What are you going to do, bring it in, then run back out when the neighbor's dog starts barking? Or rush home from work, when it starts raining to bring the thing inside? I tried to return the product and didn't receive an answer saying that I could. This product is a lot more expensive than other bark control devices and all of the other ones are waterproof.
