Highlighted Reviews
"I love it! my puppy no longer jumps on the sofa. I'm thinking of getting another one for the the patio furniture. My favorite part is that it doesn't shock the animal it just beeps and lets them know to get off."
"Put the large mat on the couch to keep the dog off. 5 .minutes later I heard the tone, and found my dog standing full on the mat, completely ignoring the tone. Yes, her hearing is fine. Totally wasted $$ for me."
