Ultrasonic Dog High Frequency Questions
are ultrasonic bark preventors safe?
Im thinking of buying one of those plug in bark defendor on ebay , this is what the description says;
This product works by emitting a high frequency sound when barking is detected, that is inaudible to humans, but drives pesky dogs away.
The dog then associated this sound with barking, and trains it to stop.
The ultrasonic waves will transmit 25 feet, so you can rest assured that this unit will drive those dogs far enough away that they won’t bother you anymore.
This product would be for use with my own dogs , i would like to know what other people think. Also could this cause harm to them? Thank you
This product will not harm your dogs. It works by performing a correction to the barking behavior. When the dog barks, the high frequency noise is the consequence, which causes the dog some discomfort. The dog will begin to associate the barking to the discomfort. In order to not experience the discomfort, the dog will not bark, thus, teaching your dog to stop barking.
This product most likely will not work for you because you have more than one dog. When one dog barks, all your dogs will experience the discomfort even though all the other dogs are not barking. So the dogs will not associate the high frequency noise as a correction for barking. Also, I have heard that if a loud noise is detected by the item (for example, a car passing by with the speakers booming or thunder), it will send off the high frequency noise, which also confuses the dogs and the dogs will not learn not to bark. I do not know if the companies that make these items have corrected this problem in the last year (when I researched getting this product for my dog) or not.
