Has anyone tried the Dog Silencer Pro anti-barking device??

My dogs bark all day long while I'm at work, which is obviously driving my poor neighbors insane!! The citronella bark collars worked for awhile until my dogs figured out how they work, and now they maneuver the collars so they don't go off when they bark (smart little suckers)... I recently saw the Dog Silencer Pro - you can read abotu it at http://www.ultimatebarkcontrol.com/DS_Pro.htm - my question is:

Has anyone used this device who can tell me if it works or not?

Thanks!!!!

Update:

PLEASE don't answer my question until you actually look at the description of the item. The item does NOT use shock therapy, and is NOT a collar at all. If you're not willing to read the question, don't bother answering!

    Good grief! How many of you actually READ the question and LOOKED at the product?! There's no SHOCKING involved!

    I'm not familiar with this particular product, by I am familiar with the practice and it's a sound, humane one. My neighbor has two HUGE dogs with big barks and barrier aggression and this type of training device has actually worked very well for her.

    Best of luck to you.

    A dog should be trained on how to eat, walk with you, not to bark, potty training and sleep on its place etc. You can teach anything to your puppy, dogs get trained easily with some good instructions. If you want some good training tips visit https://tr.im/trainyourdog

    If properly trained, they should also understand whistle and gesture equivalents for all the relevant commands, e.g. short whistle or finger raised sit, long whistle or flat hand lay down, and so on.

    It's important that they also get gestures and whistles as voice may not be sufficient over long distances and under certain circumstances.

    I tried one of these and it didn't work. I tried a shock collar and my dog figured out how to bark without setting off the shock.

    Have you tried any enrichment toys?

    My sister-in-law has one, and also has 5 dogs. It drives two of the dogs crazy, and has no effect on the other three. So she has three that still bark, and two that suffer because of the other 3.

    Yes I bought it and it does NOT work at all...! They lied to me it takes more then 30 days to work also it has been more then 30 days and I call them back and they said to me to give it another 30 days now we are in 60 days... I call them again that I wanted to returned their product back and I wanted my money back the rep Corrinne tells me sorry you have reached the limit on the warranty and I said I do NOT think so ... finally Corrinne tells me ok send it in you will only get $114 and I spent $168.80 what a ripped off huge gap of differences... It also states that 100% refundable of the products, 3 year warranty,

    plus taxes and shipping and finally you pay for the shipment to returned it and you will get 100 % of your money back. That is a lie they keep chunk of the 100% and on top of that it does NOT work at all!!!! Do research its NOT worth it at all ... you keep telling them that you want your money back and ignore you plus its false advertisement on how the commercial for this product!!! I am so angry that I am only receiving they charge my credit card $168.80 ok take S&H $23.95 plus $5.00 rush that leaves with $139.85 to be refunded and Corrinne says only $114.00 to be refunded telling you its a ******* fraud all the way around and trust me I will be calling on Monday early in the morning talking to a higher boss to get back $139.85 from the $168.80 .... I am so ANGRY with this company it says 100% money back!!! NOT HAPPY WITH THIS PRODUCT & THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICES OF ACTIONS!!!

    it is amazing. it will bother the dog at first but when the dog learns not to bark at nothing. the collar can come off and the dog will acted like it is still on.
