Super Bark Stop Ultrasonic Dog Training Device BC16G

Description: An OUTDOOR Sonic & Ultrasonic Corrector for Dogs. Uses same ultrasonic bark stopping technology as the Bark Stop. An internal directional cone ensures proper placement of the unit. The Pet Detector System Super Bark Stop has a dual sound selector. Choose ultrasonic frequencies heard only by dogs and cats or lower sound tones audible to humans. Both sounds have been shown effective for training dogs to stop barking.

Didn't work for me, but your mileage may vary
Reviewer: Humanoid San Diego, CA 10-04-2006
I bought this device in the hope of eliminating or significantly reducing the noise emanating from my neighbor's mutt. The offending dog is often left on the neighbor's porch, where it harasses just about every living thing that passes by.

Before ordering, I had read varying accounts of its range in terms of how close the unit must be to the dog in order to attain the desired effect. In my case, the neighbor's porch is about 35 to 60 feet aware from mine. Unfortunately, this was not "too close for comfort" as far as the dog was concerned.

Having read a number of very mixed reviews of this and similar devices, I was not overly optimistic about the prospect of it actually working. Alas, it did not. Some dogs just don't hear them. In my case, it was probably due at least in part to the distance.

My suggestion is to go ahead and pick up one of these devices if and only if you are within 20' of the target. If it doesn't work, go ahead and return it to the manufacturer for a refund (which is exactly what I did). By the way, you don't need an RA (AKA RMA) number to return the device. Just send it to the company along with your receipt, and a note saying that you would like a refund (not an exchange).

(...) I sympathize with anyone having this problem, and wish you all the best of luck. No one deserves to have their peace and quiet disturbed without good reason, and the argument that "dogs bark" simply does not hold any water.

Verdict is still out on Super Bark Stop

I bought this out of desperation of my neighbors dog! I was very skeptical but when I pointed it right at the dog it stopped barking immediately and ran in the house. The problem is, I had to mount it about 10ft high to get over the wall. In the directions that came with it, it said not to place it more than 6ft high. Nowhere on the website does it say that!! I still can't tell if it's helped or not. I'd say that the product does work, but it is not very effective if not pointed directly at the dog when it barks. I'll follow-up later on.

Trying not to hate it

I've had it all of an hour & the screw for the battery compartment broke off(without trauma). Hope this is not an indicator of it's performance. I have not got to test the Anti- bark at nothing function yet. I will ammend this after that,
