5.0 out of 5 stars It Works, June 9, 2008

I tried two different brands and this one works. One of our dogs was the worst barker that we had ever had and just one day wearing the Dogtra Collar and he was silenced. We still have to use a dummy collar but he doesn't bark anymore. The neighbors now love us. Highly recommend.

This dog collar is an excellent choice when you have a dog that just doesn't get it that barking is bad and when you say quiet it means for more than 5 seconds! It's a great collar at a great price:)

4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Results! But...., August 14, 2010

This review is from: Dogtra YS500 Water Proof No Bark Collar (Sports)

Purchased this collar as a last ditch effort when facing eviction or "get rid of the damn dog!"... I was nervous at first because the first couple settings didn't work (he's a beast!!) but now we've managed to find one that works on my high drive, high energy GSD, who even after 2 hours of exercise per day AND schutzund class 3 days a week was STILL barking at the neighbors. It absolutely saved us and nothing else had worked previously, citronella collars, countless other pet store brand bark collars, behavioral therapy, positive reinforcement, etc etc.

Gave it four stars only because at just after 30 days (go figure) of using it, the collar malfunctioned and wouldn't hold a full battery charge and smarty pants realized that after a while it would die and he could "talk" to the neighbors. It seemed that I had gotten a lemon, but considering it worked when absolutely nothing else would, that's even ok! Dogtra has been great and offered to fix or replace it for me, so I'm ordering a second to use in the meantime and have as backup.

Highly recommend for anyone with a stubborn or high energy dog. For those who are concerned, he doesn't wear it when we are at home and will alert us (with a proper, healthy bark) if a stranger enters the yard.

Few tips: Take the time to use it and learn what works for your dog - it make be a bit of trial and error but with patience I'm confident it will work out! All it takes is reading the instructions and knowing your pup. Please don't leave it on your dog 24-7, it doesn't replace time spent exercising or just hanging out with your dog, and might irritate their neck! Last, make sure it is tight enough that the prongs make contact, for dogs who have such thick coats (like GSD's, Husky's etc), if it isn't working, it may not be tight enough.

Good luck! (and thanks again Dogtra people!)
