BarxBuddy

The light feature comes on constantly but the whistle either didn't work at all or had no effect on my dogs. I have had 10 dogs in the last 20 years, with 4 currently, and have always had products like this work. Needed a new one and saw this. Easy to return and customer service was very nice, however, I am responsible for shipping both ways ($16 total). Not worth it for an item that may be broken. Will not recommend.

I have an 8-month-old terrier/hound mix who barks at everything - people in the hallway of the building, dogs barking (outside, inside, on the TV), any animal appearing on the TV (he watches TV intently) - real, cartoon, painting, etc. He went on a barking binge yesterday over a picture of a cartoon dog on a van. Received the package, opened it up, put in the battery, and when some dogs appeared on the TV, hit the button and he stopped in mid-bark! I did not expect it to work that well. For the rest of the day, every time something sent him into a barking frenzy, hit the button and poof - barking stopped. I don't know how, but it works like magic! HIGHLY recommend.

I purchased one of these a while back. It didn't work at all on my french bulldog. Whenever I would go to get it when she was barking a lot, she would see those lights and trigger her wanting to play.

Didn't work on my Cavapoo - in fact, it caused her to bark even more (non-stop); however, ironically, it does deter our two cats from fighting. Go figure!

So I ordered, took a while to come. No instructions in the box. Battery hard to install as connectors tucked away back to front so had to twist them around without disconnecting wires behind. Either I have a dud one or it’s useless. Doesn’t do anything. Have two dogs who bark a lot.

I always thought these types of devices were a joke. I have a 3-year-old Pomeranian who loves to alert me when anything is out of order, she would bark non-stop when we had visitors and telling her "NO BARK" sternly was not working. So, one evening I saw an ad for BarxBuddy and it was something like 50% off and free shipping - I thought what the heck, can't hurt to try it. I was amazed, within a week she no longer barks at people or anything else. Now all I have to do is let her see it and she won't bark. My brother-in-law was surprised at the transformation and ask for info on BarxBuddy to give to a friend. The downside, she doesn't bark now to tell me when someone is here. Love it.

Does not work. Two emails and one phone call for refund ignored. Cheaply made. Battery connections do not fit the battery. Never again. Unknowledgeable customer service. Under consumer law the product is supposed to do that what it is advertised to do. I would add more to satisfy your need for characters but I have said it all.

Placed an order through the Australian website on the 3rd of June 2020. Did not receive a confirmation email but not sure if the email address was on order as auto-filled my info. Tried to email the USA email address. Email immediately rejected. Tried to email Australian email, rejected a day later. Tried to email again after that and a day later again that third email rejected. Credit card debited considerably more than price however when I contacted credit card provider they suggested that the price was likely to be in USA dollars not Australian dollars. Terms and conditions on the website indicate no responsibility for the company for anything. I am now suspecting a fraudulent website and that our money has been lost.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I haven't even had the BarxBuddy a week yet, but the results right from the beginning have been incredible! My dog isn't really even a barker, but she needed to learn not to jump and push, when to drop what she shouldn't have, and other bad behaviors. She responded instantly. She is becoming an angel and she isn't being harmed in any way. I think she loves me more now! And I her.

Our Cavalier King Charles totally ignored this device. He will look at the red light but still barks. A waste of money in my opinion. Just wish one could get what they pay for and it actually works.

I have 2 German Shepherds and 3 dogs that are direct neighbors, I attempted to use it for barking, pulling on a walk, whining in the car on the way to the park, didn't work at all, not once. I attempted to email support multiply times and all my emails were returned/rejected, I plan to call the phone number tomorrow. On top of that, they double charged me and then gave me a refund for a lesser amount, overcharging me $20 after I used the $10 off coupon.
