" ... Great I love that you can pick sound or vibrate ... "
" ... It instantly responds to the sound of barking by beeping and gently vibrating. ... "
" ... 3 Days in and habitual barkers are quiet. ... "
" ... It has different strengths for the no harm shock and will sound, vibrate, and then lastly do a no harm shock. ... "
" ... Also, I was apprehensive to order a new bark collar because his old one was so sensitive to surrounding sounds it would beep if a car door was shut too hard or if another dog around him barked. ... This collar is great and only controlling sounds made from my pup. ... "
" ... I like having the sound, vibration and mild shock to remind my barker that she’s not acting appropriately. ... I really like that it allows her minor woofs or little noises without reminders ... "
" ... My cocker spaniel used to bark at every sound and my neighbor would always complain. ... "
" ... I like that there's no outside interference from other sounds ... "

" ... After nearly two months use, I can 100% recommend this to anyone that wants a non-shock type collar. ... "
" ... Only pitfall I've seen so far is that the cloth collar it comes with allows the buckle to slide easily, therefore coming loose when playing. ... "
" ... I will just put it around his neck and he would think it was on and it avoids the parking. ... "
" ... It came with two choices for collar, one which is plastic, which is nice bc our dog chewed up our last nylon collar. ... "

" ... No remote control but works great so far! ... "

" ... I would have liked a remote. ... "
" ... Previously we had used collars with a remote control. ... Not a bad option but it meant I had to have the remote with me at all times and that was just not likely to happen. ... "
