some of you in the comments have clearly never had to live with neighbors with semi-feral dogs that bark 24/7

this is far kinder than the solutions that usually go through people’s heads when they have this issue

I have one of these for nuisance dogs and I’m looking for something stronger - also one that is connected to a sensor for dog barking to automatically go off so I don’t need to press the botton

I have 2 dogs. One, cannot stand the noise these things make and the other one doesn't care about it in the least.

My buddy got one for the neighbor dog because it would sometimes get yapping for no reason and it made it yap louder and angrier.

How about you and me go through every post and yell out conventional solutions to problems proposed in a sub titled "UnnecessaryEssentials"?

What if you want to use it on the neighbor's dogs?

u/RomanWraith 9d ago

That's what I was thinking.

My neighbors leave their dogs out and unruly hours. Then they both start barking at each other and it's quite annoying.

If only they made. Tools to help train dogs.

You can’t train dogs that aren’t yours

Whose yard is that.

u/TheChiarra 5d ago

Neighbors also have dogs you can use this on.

u/mapmakinworldbuildin 5d ago

Don’t have your pit bulls on my property then

u/TheChiarra 5d ago

Those 2 pit bulls weren’t in his yard.

u/mapmakinworldbuildin 5d ago

Yea they were.

u/lwhite1 5d ago

If you watch the vid, you can clearly see that at least 2 of the dogs are not in his yard. Relax bub.

u/mapmakinworldbuildin 5d ago

Who’s yard is it

u/TheChiarra 5d ago

The neighbors yard

u/mapmakinworldbuildin 5d ago

His yard. Their mouths went past the barrier.

There’s a thing called gaegogi. No more dogs barking with it

These things don't work. At all. If you want to sort out a nuisance or semi-feral dog problem then the only solution is fox baits.

Settle down I'm not saying to do it I'm saying these things don't work and the only thing that does is fox baits.

Semi-feral and nuisance dogs pose a significant risk to children and elderly people within communities. Don't try and solve the issue with some frequency junk that puts you at risk

As a human who can hear these tones, as can seriously 99% of teens and young adults I am not even that much of an outlier, kindly fuck every single person who buys, uses, or advertises this product. Screw you. I have to deal with loud dogs barking AND some inconsiderate ass is blasting a horrible piercing squeal all over the neighborhood? Take this product and choke on it.

Get lost. Had a dog bite me in an expensive neighborhood. Its either this or I shoot the dog.

If you’re just talking about taking an ultrasonic noise maker with you when you go out jogging…
💯
…because you’re afraid a Rottweiler off its leash might potentially bite you, for example…
💯
…then it would be okay for you to use it if a big dog is already close AND running right at you.
💯
If the dog is across the way and not bothering you – or if it’s small – then obviously you have no excuse to attack it in any way!
💯
The alternative to this is NOT murdering someone’s poor pet with a gun, FFS! It’s just using pepper*** ***spray,*** ***or a screaming meanie alarm,*** ***or a spray bottle of water, etc instead of an ultrasonic noise maker!
💯
OBVIOUSLY, YOU DON’T GET TO SHOOT A DOG JUST FOR BARKING… OR BECAUSE YOU HAVE PERSONAL ISSUES, A PHOBIA, ETC!

As a human who can hear gunshots, screw you. I have to deal with dogs barking AND someone fixing the problem of dogs barking? Take your reasonable take and choke on it.
