Battery installation

By Wanda J M., Oklahoma, Verified Reviewer

I need instructions on the installation of the battery. I removed the wrapper but cannot determine how it fits inside. Could you please send instructions? I have never seen one like this. I am anxious to use BarxBuddy!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

BarxBuddy is GREAT!

By P L., Alaska, Verified Reviewer

Received it a couple of hours ago AND IT WORKS GREAT! My one-year-old poodle/cocker stopped barking immediately when I used BarxBuddy! Took three times of people walking down our street and "he’s got it"! I also used it for his jumping up on me. And it’s working for that also. I love it! It’s worth every penny! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!

It works!

By Cheryl H., California, Verified Reviewer

We are so happy with our BarxBuddy. We have two stubborn German Shepards that did not listen when we called them. When a new neighbor moved in he complained about our male and his interaction with his dog at the fence. We bought the BarxBuddy and our problems were over. One press on the button caused him to return to the door and I could let him in. Both my dogs listened and any time they bark I can press the button and they return to the house. Thank you for helping us with our dogs and their much-improved behavior.

It works!

By Fran D., Hornbrook, CA, Verified Reviewer

Honestly, I have only used it one time. Only one of my three dogs started barking at a car that pulled up in the driveway. The other two were elsewhere in the house. She was facing the door barking, I picked up the BarxBuddy and hit the "On" button, which was set to low. She immediately stopped barking and turned around to look at me. I told her she was a good girl and gave her a treat. I am looking forward to using it to help my other dogs curb their enthusiasm! Thank you.

It works!

By Debbie T., Sewell, NJ, Verified Reviewer

At first I thought another usless item to add to my many purchases to stop my dog from barking. When it arrived I was excited to use it. It's going to take time but actually she has quieted down and as soon as I pick up the device, she looks at it and remains calm.

So far this is the best one and like I mentioned you have to be consistent with it.

Works great

By Missie G., Littleton, CO, Verified Reviewer

I have a 10-year-old dog that sits in the window most of the day. She loves observing the neighborhood. However, she barks incessantly at trucks, dogs, and people walking. I saw the BarxBuddy on FB and decided to give it a try.

I am following the instructions for use and I must say it is fantastic. It didn’t take long for my dog to recognize the device and to literally stop her bad behavior.

I highly recommend this.

BarxBuddy - our friend!

By Dee L., West Palm Beach, FL, Verified Reviewer

We highly recommend the BarxBuddy to all pet owners! Our dog used to bark incessantly when someone passed by, or came to our front door. He wouldn’t even stop when it was someone he knew, or when we told him it was OK! We definitely needed some help that also wouldn’t hurt our dog. We saw results from the first moment we used the BarxBuddy. Our Parsons Russell Terrier turns toward us when he hears the high frequency, non-painful sound of the BarxBuddy, and comes over to my husband or I. Thanks again for your wonderful product!

It works great as a training tool

By Andrea H., Melbourne, Australia, Verified Reviewer

My 9-month-old Schnoodle barked incessantly at me at people coming to the door, etc. I used it twice with the command "no barking." Followed by heaps of "good boy" praise.

Then 3 times without actually pressing the button. The barking just stopped instantly.

Now I just point my finger and say "no barking" (which is very rare). It worked for us!

He had a barking fit at the groomers and I pointed her black stapler at him and told him "no barking" and he stopped immediately. So the training definitely is in the consistency. He remembers the device. I'm happy, he's happy. It worked for me and my puppy! I haven't needed to use it since. Worth it!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

BarxBuddy dog trainer

By Peggy B., Corunna, MI, Verified Reviewer

When I received the device, I was a bit skeptical. I opened it and installed the battery. I care for my little grand dog who is a mini Shih Tzu and is a habitual barker and growler when a stranger approaches. I pointed the remote at him and pressed the button. He immediately sat and stopped barking. I was amazed! I then proceeded to test it further and gave a command to come. He usually just sits and looks at me, but he got up and came over and sat by my feet. I have since showed and demonstrated to my neighbors and they were going to place their orders. Now, I don't even have to push the button. He just sees me pick it up and quickly falls in line. Thank you...you have a winner!

This product didn't work.

By Kevin R., Orange, CA, Verified Reviewer

I received the BarxBuddy and tried it right away with our Yorkie who is 7 months old. It made things worse. I tried it with and without the red light. When my dog started misbehaving I activated the product. Immediately my dog started barking at the light, runs away, and comes right back to me. He then starts barking if he sees me holding the BarxBuddy. I am returning this product for a refund. I am not saying this doesn't work at all, just not with our dog.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
