In a Nutshell

  • If your dog is easily distracted (like a squirrel or another dog). If it doesn't do then try the training collars instead.
  • Effective electronic circular whistle.
  • Ultrasonic sounds and flashing lights.

Quick Verdict

The VIVIPAL U38 Ultrasonic Bark Control Device works well for some dogs but completely ineffective for others. It's effective for getting the dog's attention and is rechargeable, which is a plus, but not a guaranteed solution for all.

"This is pretty much an electronic dog whistle. It makes the same sound to get the dog's attention. I use it when we go for walks. When my dog goes crazy because she sees a squirrel, kid, another dog I just need to click this and it reminds her to listen to me and stop trying to chase whatever has go..."

— Leslie

"My dog Completely ignored it. My trainer told me that might happen and that I needed to get an e collar which I have ordered from chewy."

Bottom Line

For potential buyers who want to train their dogs without relying on a shock collar, the VIVIPAL U38 Ultrasonic Bark Control Device can be a decent choice, but they should be prepared for the possibility that their dog may not respond to it and may be approaching alternatives.
