20 Best Ultrasonic Dog Bark Control (2023 Updated)

Would work fine as a training aid to a dog you have access to. It get’s their attention but not their respect. NO effect on a problem animal.

I just received my device and the very first time I used it my little Luke, a Maltese, stopped barking and looked at me as if to say, what did you do. He started to bark again and it only took one more push of the button and he went and laid down!! I wish I had known about these a long time ago!! I love this thing!!.

I bought one of these to keep other people’s dog from getting my dog riled up as we walk by other yards. I can attest that this brand and model absolutely works. I believe more than 16 ft as well. Well worth if you are wanting neighbor dogs and cats even out of your yard.

Absolutely incredible! The very first day I used it on my 9-month-old Springer, I saw results! She always barked non-stop while I was preparing her meals. She barked as usual while I was preparing her breakfast; by that evening when I was fixing her dinner, she didn’t bark at all, and hasn’t since.

Her barking while playing has really subsided to a minimum. I have also used it on her brother with similar results. The one-size-fits-all collar has closely spaced holes for a perfect fit. The only drawback is that the collar is long, and there is no place to secure the excess.

I solved this problem by cutting off several inches; still leaving enough collar to accommodate my larger dog’s neck. I highly recommend this product.

Wow, I am so surprised I didn’t buy this earlier. I have a very energetic 1yr Purebred male German Shepherd. He doesn’t have a bad habit of barking all the time but whenever he sees another dog, he goes crazy.

I have only used this twice now, on level 1, and he will not bark when he wears the collar. This is the best tool that I have found to really cause your dog to actually THINK about what he or she is doing.

I can try to calm him down all I like with no collar, but I am not a robot so therefore the likely hood of myself being completely consistent every single time I have to correct him is slim. He is trained, overall very kind.

But I am so glad I have finally found a solution to this problem. Thank you!! He won’t need to wear it every single day, but having the ability to come back to the collar for any extra reinforcement in the future is awesome.

oh and the money back guarantee is also great too! :).

Did the job My neighbours told me that my staffy would bark “uncontrollably” when we weren’t home. She would rarely bark when we were home, usually only if something unusual was happening on the other side of the fence, so we weren’t previously aware that we had a problem.

We bought the DOGTRA YS300 but were a little apprehensive, we didn’t want to hurt her. We tried it first on the vibrate only setting and watched secretly after pretending to leave. We saw her hesitate when she felt the vibration but then go on barking.

We tested the first level of stimulation (interestingly called Level 2) on ourselves and the kids ;P to ensure it wouldn’t cause her pain. It was an unpleasant sensation but not painful (not “ouch”, more “oh”).

We again pretended to leave and saw her bark once, flinch, then stop barking. She tried it a couple more times then not again. I’ve now noticed that while she’ll still run out to investigate an unusual sound, she won’t bark at it (this is while we’re home without the collar on) and I’ve had no more complaints from the neighbours.

The battery lasts well I’ve only charged it once and we’re still going months later. The dog will happily let me put it on her as long as there is a good treat on offer.

Honestly, I was at my wits end. My toy poodle had two behaviourists out. He was on every sort of medication to help with his barking – every long lasting treat – you name it, we did it. Except this. In my mind I was convinced this was awful.

I was wrong. I used this collar once on the vibration setting and that’s all it took. He learnt. We have now completely weaned off medication and he’s an entirely different dog. I needed to be educated this was a better choice than drugs.

They were so right. This collar truly was my last resort before feeling I might need to give him up ( which my heart couldn’t do) We had numerous council complaints. It truly was the only thing I could do.

He’s stopped his nuisance barking, he’s stopped medication and he’s a happy healthy dog Best decision I ever made.

Our two westies have had barking issues in the past. Just the random barking when neighbours make noise, bins get collected, someone at door etc. We have tried other collars in the past and they never worked! Finally now we have a solution! These collars worked instantly.

One bark and since they felt the first vibration, then haven’t had them bath since! We will leave these collars on them full time. It’s such a relief knowing we can now go out and not worry our neighbours will complain about our dogs sneaky barking while we are out! Thank you so much! Holly.

Ok so the instructions stated that it would “spray” sound. I wasn’t sure exactly what that meant but we have a dog that just barks to hear himself bark LOL. We introduced this collar to him and the first time we heard it spray sound honestly I thought there was a rattlesnake on my porch.

After hunt for the snack for a bit we realized it was the collar. It does actually sound like an aggressive aerosol spray can which is why I called it an interesting concept. We have tried other types of anti-bark collars and I really do like this one.

It isn’t harmful in anyway and it does get his attention. I am happy with this product it doesn’t stop him from being a dog like if he sees a squirrel he is going to bark his darn little head off no matter what but this collar does get his attention and reduce the amount of just barking for the sake of barking which I much appreciate.

Just started using this tool a couple of weeks ago. I’ve seen good improvement in Bug’s behavior when I say ‘leave it’. This past winter he began chasing trucks on our road; needless to say, very dangerous habit.

We have two black lab brothers who like to fight. Nothing we did worked to stop them. The Doggie Don’t stops them every time..

It is a buzzing sound but it sure does get my dogs attention. He stops whatever he is doing when he hears it.

Much prefer this bark controller than any other (especially the ones that the dog wears). I keep it by my side and if pup starts whining, use it. If pup decided to start barking again I use it and it stops that behavior in its tracks.

Does not work at all. Dogs do not even care about the frequency. They just keep barking. Have been training them for 10days now. No result.

The SBC-10 performs as advertised. It is quick to recharge and maintains charge surprisingly well. It is VERY effective, and WILL end the habitual barking. I have 3 beagles housed in outdoor kennels, that had developed a habit of persistent barking.

The SBC-10 ended the behavior immediately. Correct color adjustment is crucial. I very much recommend using the ‘user select’ mode, and in the minimal stimulation setting, as it is more than enough stimulation for effectiveness.

Although the description sounds less severe, I feel that the ‘progressive stimulation’ mode only creates inconsistency in training principle. My previous experience with e-collars was in stopping hunting dogs from running deer.

I found that to be quite simple, effective, and straightforward. Using the SBC-10 is quite different in that it is not as straightforward for the dog, in that since the stimulation is likely to produce barking in reaction, and that a chain of bark/stimualtion, bark/stimulation is likely to occur, and takes MUCH longer for the dogs to learn to avoid the pattern.

A mode level low enough to avoid the reaction barking, and high enough to stop the voluntary barking is the goal. Using an ordinary e-collar to break dogs off deer of course does not stimulate the dog to a reaction bark, but is not useful for bark control.

My German shepherd’s barking had gotten so bad we were nearly thinking we might have to rehome him Our shepherd would sit perched on a mound and constantly bark at the neighbours dog all day. And if the dog wasn’t there, he would keep barking until the dog appeared We thought we had tried everything – walking everyday, thousands of dollars on training, confining to small sections of the yard, using other static collars.

But nothing worked After our new baby came along, and we couldn’t respond to his barking straight away, we were nearly at the point of rehoming him. I’ve also lost count of how many council notices we’ve had from our long suffering neighbours complaining After a quick call to barkcontrol, they were able to give me heaps of advice and recommended this collar.

I was a little dubious as we had tried different static collars in the past, but he just barked straight through them I ordered it on Friday and it arrived on Sunday. We charged it up and popped it on him.

We set it to manual mode and put it on number 4 (as recommended as our dog was already used to wearing other static collars). I can tell you now – it worked straight away! He gave it a few “test” barks; and we’ve not heard a peep from him since! Hes nearly 8 years old and has been a habitual barker for most of his life!! My only regret is that we didn’t buy this years ago!!! 11/10 would recommend! I would pay any amount of money for a product that works this well (I did find it a little tricky to set up as the buttons aren’t super responsive, but I still managed to figure it out ok).

I was really apprehensive about buying my pup a bark collar but had no choice following council complaints about his barking. I researched thoroughly and found this the best collar on the market as I could control the setting and it seemed the safest and most reliable.

I spoke with the guys in Brisbane who were most helpful and patient with all my concerns/questions and decided to get one. The transaction went smoothly and I was able to pick it up instantly, they were even waiting outside to hand me the collar as there were no parking spots available in the car park at that time of day.

I got the collar home and popped it on my 6mths old pup on the lowest setting. He got used to it very quickly and I could instantly see that it was only a little discomfort for him when he barked. His behaviour corrected within 24 hours and I rarely have to use it now.

I still put it on him irregularly when he gets a bit excited and starts his barking again. It is also easy to use, easy to charge and weatherproof. I would highly recommend Bark Control collars for their product and their excellent service.

It’s true, amazing customer service! I called before I bought my collar and the gentleman I spoke with was very generous with his time and information. Made me feel much better about using the bark collar which I had avoided for so long.

I didn’t know I had a problem till I received a complaint letter. My dogs don’t bark when I’m home but I found out they bark even though my husband works from home. I bought 1 collar to share amongst my 3 Dachshunds and 1 Pomeranian to see how it worked.

They have different times and triggers for barking. None of them seem to mind wearing it. It’s stopped the barking while we’re at home. It’s reduced the barking when we’re both out (only 2 days so far) so we’re still working on that.

The bark counter function is genius as I can gauge its effectiveness. Battery life is excellent, haven’t charged it since the first time. Very happy and will be getting another one.

I highly recommend this collar for people who have tried other deterrents, without success, like I had. Most importantly it does not appear to distress my dog at all, while it stops his problem barking.

I am happy with the high quality build and soft collar with buckle, which is much better than a clip in type of closure. The device holds charge well, with no need to recharge after each use. I was very grateful for the excellent sales and after sales support; the guys know what they are talking about, were very pleasant and helpful.

An added bonus, the collar reached me in 2 days! Great value for the price.

This is the one for us. I wish I had purchased the BT-7 BarkCollar BT-7 in the first place! Spending the extra money and doing your research is worth it! Our Labrador is now calm and happy. She only barks to alert us to an intruder or a perceived danger.

Prior to purchasing this collar. We noticed a sudden change in her behaviour when we moved house. 5am pedestrians and dog walkers and foxes passing by would set her off and we’d often have to get out of bed to give positive reinforcement or bring her inside.

In the beginning, I purchased the Petsafe Basic Bark Control Collar – PBC19-10765. It came with free Replacement Batteries and I purchased an extra pack to save on future postage. Initially, our Labrador responded quickly and barking reduced, however, I don’t believe that was the correct unit for our girl.

Her irritability and persistent barking returned to full on annoyance after about four weeks. We replaced the first two complementary batteries, every 4-6 weeks and by August, I purchased 2 replacement Petsafe Red Nylon Straps, as they deteriorate and become too loose.

After months of persevering, I returned to Bark Control website to do some further research. In October, purchased The BarkCollar by DogWatch – No Bark Trainer BT-7 and I wish I had done this in the first place!.

I have a silky terrier that thinks he’s a pit bull. He barks at doorbells, garbage trucks, the washing machine, cars driving by, the mailman and anything else that enters his orbit. Since our house is so close to our neighbors, I’m sure they were getting tired of hearing him and he completely ignored commands to stop.

I didn’t want to get him a shock collar so I decided to try this device. I was actually surprised to find that it actually works. The ultrasonic noise does not hurt his ears but definitely gets his attention and distracts him from whatever he happens to be barking at at that moment.

We have been following it up with the stop command and a treat when he does stop barking. I’m hoping that with continued use of this device, we can finally break him of this habit. I’d definitely recommend this to other dog owners – simple to use and effective.

We have a very smart, strong willed golden doodle puppy. He barks for attention which he pretty much wants 24/7. He rings a bell for potty and was easy to house train. He knows to go to his bed while we eat.

But the jumping, barking and even nipping when he wanted to play fetch and we were otherwise occupied was a big issue. We just got this yesterday. At first we told him hush and he paused but started right back barking.

We then said hush and pressed the audible button. He paused and looked at the device for a few seconds then started again. Then we said hush and pressed the ultrasonic button. Just one clicked. He stopped and sat down.

We haven’t had to use it since. We say hush he looks at the device and goes and gets a toy to play by himself. Do not use this to ignore your pup. He needs your attention and play time with you! This is to teach limits and a valuable tool so far.

We have a Bluetick Coonhound and they bark and howl. She’s smart and has learned a lot but doesn’t always pipe down when we tell her to. She’s usually good in the house but outside is another story. We tried the shock collar but can only do the vibration and beep.

We just can’t bring ourselves to actually shock her. Wanted to try something else. This is nice because you can’t hear it but they can. We get her attention with this ultrasonic, give her the command “no barking” “stop” or whatever, if she listens, she gets a small training treat.

It’s going to take some time but so far it seems to be working. We’ve had it about a week and she does hear it and looks at us when we got the button, so I’m confident it’s going to help finish her training.

I have gone through so many different types of barking collars and this one is the only on that has kept my dog quite. He’s able to let off only a few seconds of barking then he’s so quite. I can’t recommend this product enough.

Saved my sanity and our neighbour’s!.

Did not deter my dog from barking. I would send it back but I cut off the excessive length of collar and they probably will not accept a return. It is like my dog is wearing nothing. I do not recommend this dog collar to anyone.

If your dog just barks once in a while and you think this device is going to work, forget it.

German Shepherd. So. Two weeks of trial and error before I make this recommendation. When the unit works, it works and the dog stops barking after a few seconds. Exactly as the product describes. The problem is that appears that the unit is very positional sensitive.

Meaning that if it is not directly flush against the dogs vocal chords it simply doesn’t work. It may also be the thick neck hair on the dog. If you had a short haired dog it may be more consistent. Either way, I,m a bit torn.

It is terrific when it works but the randomness that it does means that I cannot recommend it. The unit itself appears to be well made with good materials and the collar itself is also appearing to be good quality.

I have a very reactive dog who wants to meet and play with every dog and person she meets. Unfortunately, she communicates this by loud and continuous barking which frightens people. I tried a sonic device designed to distract her (which worked twice until she realized there was no real consequence) and behavioral training to reward her when she listens, but she’s young and has no impulse control.

This collar worked right away. She hates it, but is learning to control herself. Also, I had a question about the product and the seller answered right away. I definitely recommend this device.

So I was hesitant to get this for my dog who is 4. He was never much of a barker but since we moved to a neighborhood with a lot of other dogs who bark constantly he picked up the bad habit. I didn’t want to shock him unless it was necessary.

Turns out I didn’t have to! This has two options you can use, and a shock one, to help remind my dog that barking isn’t okay (especially when I’m on a business call)!! Super easy to set up and use. My favorite feature is the bark counter.

It keeps track of how many times it had to go off!! I’ve seen so much improvement from the first time we put it on him. It’s really been great!!!.

This thing is a god send. My little dog likes to YAP at everything. NOT WHEN HE’S WEARING THIS. He is scared of the beeping and it really does the trick without the shock that some collars like this come with.

I highly recommend this and let me tell you. I bought this thing like 6 months ago and have only charged it ONE TIME. It really works great. Now I dont have it on my dog all the time and when it is not one him I turn it off but the batter last forever.

This collar works great. I have six month old terrier mix pup. She is wonderful but has a high pitched bark that could be used as a torture device. I am working with a trainer and she recommended a bark collar.

She said it is humane and successful. I trust her so immediately ordered this collar. We are a much more peaceful family now and for such a reasonable price too.

If another dog is standing next to the one wearing the collar and barks, the dog wearing the collar gets corrected – the dog with the collar on wasn’t even the one barking! It’s teaching my dog to be afraid of other dogs for no reason.

I like the fact that it has several stages to correct, and the price point is reasonable. But, the microphone is picking up on other barking dogs, so it’s not working as it should. I would not advise using this product.

This is a great collar, very easy to set up & adjust as needed, very effective. My 19 lb Westie has been wearing it daily for 4 days, and the corrections worked immediately for him. I adjust the levels as our environment changes to avoid inadvertent triggers.

As far as the shock feature goes, I can barely feel anything when testing it on my bare skin, and what I do feel is much less noticeable or startling than a static electricity shock, nothing painful or traumatic.

I like how it is highly adjustable and easy to clean. you also plug it into a USB charger cord to charget it up. The charge lasts awhile too. And when it needs charged up again a yellow light blinks to tell u to charge it.

Very convient. Only problems I had with it was that it wouldn’t stay in the exact spot it needed to over the dogs voicebox. It was on not too tight and not to loose but my dog somehow got it to move to the side.

The spray that comes from it is a short strong burst of the fragrance. I used citronella first so then I could tell if it had worked right. The scent only last a few seconds in the air. There is also no fragrance scent thing too.

I think as far as how effective it is a hit or a miss. It does not go off with those low barks I noticed. Or the short little barks. Like the barks they do when they think they hear something but there is nothing.

Yeah didn’t work or my dog. It did work the few times she did a full on bark though. But I think she outsmarted it because she just wouldn’t do her loud powerful bark anymore and just quieter ones. And let’s just say if the little box thing isn’t exactly in the spot it needs to be it doesn’t work right.

We also had a few mishaps with it going off randomly when I was fixing it. Honestly my dog isn’ a Huge barker. But the older she gets she doe’s bark more than she used to at certain things. But she will she top barking with or without the spray collar.

Overall it is a decent product! It does work when it wants to work.

Good Bark Collar So I wanted to wait to try this on my pet for 2 weeks before I wrote a review for this bark Collar. So my dog Princess barks constantly when put outside to use the bathroom and I could never find a product that would stop her from barking at our 2 neighbors.

So I received this in the mail and put it on Princess right then. She felt comfortable in it which was nice. This bark collar stops her from barking and I am so thankful. The neighbors are very happy now I am sure that they do not hear barking.

This is good, safe, and not like them harmful shock collars that hurt your pets so that’s a plus! Would recommend to your dogs. It only puts out a mist if the dog barks and it is safe to use! I will be buying this again if I need to.

I also recommended to friends and my family with dogs.

I’ve never tried anything to keep our dogs from barking. At the beginning of the year we moved to a busy neighborhood and the barking is constant. It drives us crazy. I was all for a safe way to detur barking and happy to try this collar.

I did some trouble getting it to work. I ended up going to the company website and watched their videos. That was very helpful and I recommend doing that if you run into anything. The other issue I’ve had is that the collar keeps moving so unless it’s right under the dogs nose he doesn’t notice it.

I’ve tightened it as much as I am comfortable and feel my dog is comfortable. It took us both some learning but it is helping. As long as I make sure it hasn’t moved. I think over time he will stop barking at every little thing.

I would like to get one for our other dogs too. I would recommend it.

This collar works and is a lot better than remote control collars. You don’t have go reaching for or looking for the remote. Our dog would bark excessively at anybody or any noise, no more. It is a lot larger than the picture looks, it is for larger dogs.

The info said it can be used for smaller dogs and it does, but it is huge and we had to cut most of the collar off so he can’t chew on it or it dragging on the floor. I wish it was smaller, but it works.

We have it on a low setting and still he yelps like he’s been bitten. I don’t think that the vibration warning is working, because it lit him up as soon as he barked. We had a loud thunder storm that apparently set off the collar because he yelped.

So it is not working like it says it is suppose to, but it has stopped the barking so I’m happy. I like that it is rechargeable, because other collars would burn through batteries, at 6 bucks a pop and didn’t last very long was getting expensive.

It’s been over three weeks and it hasn’t needed recharging yet. I wish it was smaller, but can’t argue with the results.

I guess I purchased one that a 3rd party vendor had in their storage for a while. Upon receipt, it would not work so I called the manufacturer. They said that mine was an old model and they don’t even make it anymore.

Not too cool considering it was the same price as a newer version. I returned and bought a NEWER model from Amazon.

My 9 mo. old Giant Schnauzer decided he liked barking all of a sudden. I purchased this product because of the reviews posted. Within a few days he understood this collar. Excellent quality. Great operation instructions.

Only needs to be charged once a month.

I honestly never thought I’d buy a collar for barking, but I recently moved from an apartment to a single family home so my pup could have a backyard and Doggie door which she LOVES! However the raccoons, opossums and squirrels ALSO love the backyard which my tiny home defender can’t stand nor can all my neighbors dogs who all start barking in unison.

So I had to do something to try to keep the peace. I was adamant about buying a collar that had no shock whatsoever and was happy to find this humane option. My pup can/will grumble which I don’t mind at all, but this stops the loud barking.

It’s only been two days thus far and so she’ll bark once then stop which is a vast improvement especially when going after those “evil” (in her mind) critters in the backyard. It’s a bit big on her and it’s not pretty imo so I only put it on her in the evening hours then it’s back off for bedtime, However so far so good.

The seller is fantastic too with great customer service. I’d definitely recommend this product!.

My little dog was obsessed with barking at everything. She trusted no one and would bark uncontrollably if she heard any sound. This collar stopped her constant barking the very first day. It has literally changed my life.

I can’t believe it!! My dog is well-behaved and a sweetheart who can be in public situations and meet people. I like that the collar is fully waterproof and has a built-in rechargeable battery that lasts for a long time.

I bought this collar for one of our medium sized dogs that spends a lot of time outdoors. I’m pleased to say that this collar holds a charge for a long time in between uses and works well to train your dog.

The different tone/vibration choices are great. And I love that this is waterproof. Definitely great if we are caught late coming home and our dog is out for a few minutes in inclement weather. I’m very happy with this purchase.

Tried others before finding this model. Others had the strange problem of correcting the dog when it wasn’t barking. Wasn’t going to put up with that. This never happens with this model. It also won’t go off if our other dog barks right next to her.

Important note- because our dog is medium sized (with a large bark) and fairly easily discouraged from barking this worked great. When she tries to bark (rarely now) the first mild correction is enough to stop her from continuing.

If there’s something that really scares her or alarms her (this has only happened once so far) she will bark up till about 5-6 then stop and wait 30 seconds then start again. So your experience may vary and the more expensive programmable model might work better.

FYI- first battery lasted 5-6 weeks and that was during her learning phase so lots more barks than now.

I have to be honest I did not think it would work as well as it has. gives the dog five seconds of bark time because dogs bark, that’s their job. then it activates. My dogs know exactly what’s stopping them from barking too! Shouldn’t have to use it for long.

As my puppy is too tiny so did not fit the collar well so I just turn it on at night and put it on a desk. It worked really well and my family finally have a good sleep through the night. Highly recommended!.

We have a 3 year old beagle that is very very vocal. We have had him since he was a pup. One of us has always been home where he has never really needed to be home alone. Or at least not long periods of time.

Either way he has always had separation anxiety and anxiety towards sprays, certain collars and loud noises. Anytime we have company he has to bark and jump around until he gets all attention. In the car if one of us gets out of the vehicle he continues to bark until they get back in.

We’ve looked for ways to teach him or train him not to but nothing ever helped. I was researching collars and came across this one. The reviews were absolutely amazing and I love that it wouldn’t shock him.

We were out running errands and wanted to see if it would help. The first beep/vibration had him looking around like “what was that” second time he stopped mid bark and didn’t bark after. When we got home we took it off and he did very well the rest of the night.

The next day my mother came over which is when he will bark, jump around and go crazy. We had his collar on and when she came in he barked once and did very well with her. This is an absolute amazing product! I recommend 100 percent!!!.

I purchased product with very low expectations. I have a 8 month old goldendoodle. Like most doodles she is full of energy and little focus. I have been training her but in the area of barking and jumping, I have not been having good luck.

I bought this collar hoping to solve on of the problems but it turns out I solved the barking problem and reduced the jumping. I seems that now that she is not running all over barking her head off, that she has settled down in general.

It is much easier to control jumping now that I don’t have to overcome the barking first. I am no longer giving the “hush” “down” commands in the same sentence. This is one of the best buys I have ever made for my girl.

I caught on really quickly and now knows that she can only bark once. Which is ok with me because that tells me she needs to go outside. She is just a calmer dog overall. Thanks for a great product and great service from the seller.
