Highlighted Reviews

— Russell

"BETTER BELLS - our bigger TINKLE BELLS are louder and more durable - The silver-coated bells make a pleasant, clear sound that can be heard from other rooms. The bells are 1-1/4 inch diameter. They appear to be steel (magnetic) and are "dead" tone-wise. They do not jingle, as do bronze sleigh be..."

Bottom Line

If your dog is motivated by treats and has a positive association, these bells could be part of your solution, but alternative training aids might be more effective.
