"My rescue dog would bark and have panic attacks if I left him alone. I used PATPET on low setting. He gave two small barks and didn't bark again. Very calm when I returned because he didn't work himself up into a frenzy by barking."

— jshopper

"Just doesn't seem to work. Perhaps it's the system, perhaps it's just my dog. I've tried it on all three settings with her and she still keeps on barking when someone walks by the front window."

Bottom Line

If you're looking for a reliable bark control system, consider other options or use it in combination with other training methods. For some dogs, it may work wonders, but for others, it might be a disappointment.
