Just wondering if anyone can recommend one of these high pitched devices, we have 6 dogs in close proximity to our place & they are driving me nuts to say the least, have already had a word with the dogs owners but it hasn't worked, so i'm going to try one of these gadgets to try.

Don't mean to hijack the thread but have a similar problem, neighbours either side each have a dog, neither of which stop barking. I also think there is grounds for cruelty with one of the dogs, a huskey type, only 2 year old but is completely hyper, hasn't been neutered, constantly barks and howls and never gets walked. Anytime I see it its just walking around its pen in circles.

Also are those devices not for the owner to put on their dog (collar?)

This gadget has a lower pitch sound, but it should be effective.

Fitz, I'm led to believe that there are ones available that you attach to a post/wall etc & they will work within a 20-30 metre range without the need to attach anything to the animal, one of the neighbours beside me has 4 dogs in an area approx 5 metres x 5 metres & they seldom get walked.
Started the thread in the hope someone has bought one of these that worked for them & can recommend it before I go spending money on an electronic garden ornament.

I tried one of those ultrasonic yokes - no use. Range may have been a problem, but the yappy little b**tard it was aimed at took no notice of it even when it was close enough to be within the stated range. I tried the one for rats and mice one time too - no use either.  I eventually solved the problem by calling the neighbour every time it was barking unreasonably and saying "shut that dog up".  Eventually embarrassed him into controlling the liitle hoor.

The bark collar is excellent, but of course you need the owner's co-operation. If the owner won't co-operate all you can do is complain. Then complain formally and document it. Then complain to the authorities. It'd probably help to have a recording of the nuisance and a time record of instances. This approach may make you unpopular with the neighbours, but if you don't mind that, go for it and teach them a bit of manners and consideration.

Aerlik, I`ve found that also works with cats. Great stuff all together. :)
