Product Description
Train Your Dog or Your Neighbor's Dog to Stop Barking
The Dog Silencer Pro™ is easily the most popular anti-barking system available today. This revolutionary device works by using special sound frequencies to humanely train dogs to stop barking. The Dog Silencer Pro™ is trusted by the US Military, Dog Trainers and Customers Worldwide and works up to 3x farther than the competition!
How It Works
When the Dog Silencer Pro detects barking it immediately sends a high-pitched sound heard only by the dog. Using this proven method, dogs are safely and humanely discouraged from barking. Relax while the Dog Silencer Pro quietly trains your dog, your neighbor's dog or even multiple dogs!
No-Shock Technology
Our humane training technique uses an age-old principle that teaches dogs to associate their barking with the irritating frequencies. Unlike shock collars that are painful and can be used only on one dog, the Dog Silencer Pro can be used virtually anywhere without you having to ask permission from your neighbors. The Dog Silencer Pro trains dogs to stop nuisance barking (boredom and attention-getting barking) but is designed to have no effect on instinctual or protective barking.
Before Buying
* The Dog Silencer Pro is a training device. Some customers report seeing results within a few days, but most will see results in 2-3 weeks.
* The sounds emitted by the Dog Silencer Pro will not travel through walls or other solid barriers. If using indoors, make sure to put the Dog Silencer Pro in the same room as the dog.
* Consult with your veterinarian before using the Dog Silencer Pro with a puppy.
* We recommend you do not use ultrasonic bark control devices in combination with invisible fence systems. This similar sound tones may cause confusion and interfere with the dog's training.

----Update----
A few months after I wrote this review, the device suffered an electronic failure and quit working. Fortunately it was still under warranty. The return process was painless (except for having to pay to ship it back to the manufacturer) and I received my replacement (either new or refurbished, I cannot tell) in a very reasonable amount of time. I was happy with the return/exchange process (except for paying for return shipping). A few days later, I hooked the item up, and it cannot detect Conan barking, therefore it does not activate. Although I originally rated this product high, due to two failed units, I cannot recommend this product. I am now on my third unit meaning that I have paid for shipping on this item three times. It is no longer under warranty and if unit three fails, that's it. I haven't taken unit three out of the box- I'll wait until dog barking season.
Pros: It works. It really works. It brought peace to our household. Our next door neighbor (not the one who owns the barking dog) thanked us for hooking this thing up. Keep reading for a more detailed explanation.
Cons: The efficacy relies on a direct-line-of-sight with the perpetrator and then frequent tinkering with the bark detection level control knob. This may require the use of ladders and extension cords. If the remote control would allow a display of whether or not the devices works while in silent mode as well as a way to adjust the bark detection control knob the unit would win five stars.
More: This device silenced the neighbor's dog in two days, but I understand dog training so your results may vary. This device will stop nuisance barking (barking for absolutely no reason) but it will probably not stop dogs from barking for legitimate dog reasons (somebody is walking by, a car drives by, somebody is too close to the fence, etc).
My neighbor's dog is a huge animal with a very deep bark. I don't know the dog's name but we call him "Conan" because he has such a loud, strong, deep irritating bark. Even though Conan is a good 50 feet away from our house I can hear the bark inside every room of my house. When he barks it practically rattles the windows. Thank God they bring him in at night or else I wouldn't be able to sleep. I'm assuming that the owners must be deaf. I've never seen them use sign language, but there is no way that any reasonable human being would put a dog as loud as Conan right outside of their house and pretend not to hear it. Well, maybe they aren't deaf. Maybe they are crazy or perhaps from a different planet like Bizzaro World where people feel that a dog barking loud enough to make the paint peel off the walls sounds soothing like a babbling brook or an ocean surf. But I digress. I decided to take action and I purchased this device from the manufacturer's web site.
It arrived in about 3 days. I skimmed over the instructions and plugged it in. I pointed it at my own dog, a German Shepherd, to see her reaction and when the ultrasonic (quiet) mode was activated she ran away from it and hid. So I knew it was doing something.
Day One: Following the instructions, I adjusted the control so it would go off when Conan barked but not so sensitive that it would just activate at random times. Knowing what I do about dog training, I know that it's very important for the device to operate only when the dog barks. From my upstairs window I have a filtered view of Conan through tree branches and I put the device in between the window and the screen pointed directly at him. On day one as Conan barked we could see him looking in our direction. But the barking was greatly reduced. I didn't know if it was coincidence or not.
Day Two: I haven't heard Conan. I didn't even know he was outside until I banged on the window (which activated the unit) and he gave a couple of barks (which also activated the unit). Then he shut up again.
Day three: Where's Conan? I can't hear him! This is Saturday, Conan Bark Day, and no Conan. I'm worried now, did he die or run away? Where is my neighbor's dog? So I approached the fence line towards Conan. Woof! Woof! Woof! He is still there, but quiet until disturbed! When I retreated about 20 feet he was silent again. Of course the unit was countering his barks with the ultrasonic sound.
Day four: I haven't heard Conan at all. I'm not even sure he is outside.
Days five through 14: I can see Conan but I can't hear him. This device works as advertised. If I approach the fence, Conan starts barking. When I retreat, he stops barking. This is a huge improvement over 12 hours of non-stop barking for absolutely no reason. I am lucky that there is a good 20-foot buffer of land that we don't use for any reason between us and Conan. Based on what I've observed, if we used the 20-foot buffer area he would still bark, however the device has not been used in that manner. So your results may be different, and so may ours if we decide to use that land and re-train Conan again.
Conclusion: It worked for us. The device came with a remote, but because of it's limited function, I've never used it. The device emits a loud, but inaudible to humans siren when it detects sounds like a bark. While effective, the technology doesn't seem like rocket science to me and even though it was effective, $100 seems like an awful lot of money for something that I suspect will eventually be available from a Chinese manufacturer for $9.99. If I was the manufacturer of this device, I would price the product more commensurate with what it does. It is not a canine mind control device, it's just a microphone, a speaker, and a few cheap circuits enclosed in a plastic case. But like I said, it works. If your peace of mind is worth spending $100 for $9.99 worth of electronics, this is the device for you.

Pros:
- Bark Detection Range: My neighbor's dogs are 50-60 feet away and this thing picked up their barking no problem. I'm a former user of the Bark Off and let me tell you, that thing is a piece of junk.
- Power Options: You can use a 9v battery or plug it in. It also comes with a 75 foot extension for the AC, which allowed me to put it write on the fence line.
- Remote Control: I wish they had this new pack when I bought mine because it comes with 2 remotes instead of just 1. The remote is very handy when the dog is outside of the 75ft bark detection range.
- Ease of Use: Once I configured the detection sensitivity as outlined in the instructions it worked as advertised
Cons:
- No ability to turn the unit off by remote. You can use it to manually activate the unit but it doesn't give you the option to turn the unit off when you don't need it. For someone lazy like me this would have been nice but it's not a deal breaker. (Btw, if the device is within the 75ft detection range, it will go off automatically w/o the remote).
- Battery Life: I was only getting 2-3 days of battery life so after burning through a couple of batteries I just used the AC and extension. For those of you with a heavy barking problem like mine where the device is going to be working constantly, I'd recommend using the AC.
Bottom Line:
- I'm giving this 5 stars because despite my few grievances, it got the job done and my neighbor's two boxers are quiet are no longer the subject of my frustration.

I just wanted to put in my 2 cents on this product now that they're selling a new bundle. This thing worked within 10 minutes on my lab! I love her to death but the incessant barking was driving me up the wall!
I plugged in the Dog Silencer and all it took was two barks and she stopped in her tracks! In the two weeks since, she occasionally lets out what I could only describe as a "test" bark - a bark at half volume and she has this look like she knows she's trying to get away with something. As soon as the unit goes off she's silent!
(There's a light on the front that lets you know that the unit is sounding off when it's in the ultrasonic mode. It's nice having it work without having to hear it!)
I've worked in Customer Service in the past and I've found that customers that have a bad experience with a good product are a minority, but a very vocal one. For every one person that writes a bad review, there's usually at least 10 that are happy campers but have no motivation to write a review. People are more inclined to spread the word about a bad product than a good product and I hope with this review to balance that out a bit.
In my experience this product is a godsend. Thanks guys!
