BNM - Does not work (Instructions)
Hi Customer first name,
Thanks for reaching out! We’re so sorry to hear that the product you received is not working. You might want to try out these steps as to how to use the Barks No More:
Instructions:
1. Press the Button
When your pet performs an undesirable behavior such as barking, jumping, or scratching, please press the button on Barks No More to get their attention.
2. Reward With Treat
When your pet has stopped the behavior and is paying attention to you, give them a treat to reward the good behavior.
3. Repeat
Repeat as needed. Most pet parents see the results they want within 2 weeks of consistent use, though some see a permanent change almost immediately!
Additional Information about the product:
Barks No More is Cruelty-free and certified humane by veterinarians
Works on 93% of cats and a full 96% of dogs
It will stop barking up to 16.4 feet away. The ultrasonic bark control device creates an ultrasonic sound within the dog's hearing range of 15HZ to 120KHZ, and since the average human hearing range is 20HZ - 20KHZ, the sound safely grabs your dog’s attention and you won’t hear it.
I hope this helps! Let us know if there’s anything else we can assist you with.
All the best,

BNM - I have Multiple Dogs
Hi Customer first name,
Thanks for reaching out!
Using an ultrasonic bark control device in a multi-dog household requires some care to ensure that it effectively targets the specific dog you want to train while minimizing the impact on the others. Here are some tips:
Individual Training: Direct the device towards the specific dog you want to train, avoiding use when other dogs are nearby if possible.
Supervise Initial Usage: Closely monitor the dogs' reactions during initial use and observe how each responds to the ultrasonic sound.
Consistency is Key: Use the device consistently when the targeted dog barks to reinforce the association between barking and the ultrasonic sound.
Positive Reinforcement: Combine device use with positive reinforcement for good behavior, rewarding the targeted dog when they remain quiet.
Separation if Necessary: Temporarily separate dogs if needed during training sessions to focus on one dog at a time.

BNM - What does the buttons/light switches do?
Hi Customer first name,
Thanks for reaching out!
Here are the instructions on how to use the light switch positions of Barks No More:
The light switch has three positions:
1. Slide it forward to use the device solely as a flashlight (handy feature, right?).
2. Slide it to the “I” position to use the flashlight with the ultrasonic trainer. When you press the ON button, your dog will hear the high-frequency sound and see the light. This is an ideal setting for training your dog.
3. Slide it to the “II” position to use the infrared light. When you press the ON button you will see a red light, which is ideal for distracting aggressive barking dogs and dogs that don’t belong to you. Use it when you’re at home in your yard and bothered by a neighbor’s barking dog, or take it on walks to distract dogs that bark at you as you enjoy a stroll.
Don't forget to remove the batteries if you're not going to use them for a while.
I hope this helps! Let us know if there’s anything else we can assist you with.

We've received your request to return the device, and we appreciate your feedback regarding its performance. However, we want to inform you that returns can only be processed for unused and unopened items.

While our device is designed to assist with training, it's important to emphasize that the success of training ultimately lies in your hands. Our device can be a valuable tool to help address specific behaviors, but the effectiveness of training depends on your dedication, consistency, and understanding of your dog's needs.
Here are some simple training procedures you may try:
1. Familiarize yourself with the device - Read the user manual to understand its features and functions.
2. Choose a quiet location for training - Find a quiet and distraction-free area for training your dog.
3. Introduce the device to your dog - Allow your dog to sniff and become comfortable with the ultrasonic training device. This helps them associate it with positive experiences.
4. Identify Unwanted Behavior - Pay attention to the specific behavior you want to correct, such as excessive barking. Be consistent in recognizing when this behavior occurs.
5. Press the button to get their attention - When your dog exhibits unwanted behavior, press the button on the device. The ultrasonic sound emitted will get their attention.
6. Reward with treats immediately - Immediately after pressing the button, reward your dog with a treat or praise.
7. Repeat the process consistently - Repeat the process every time your dog engages in unwanted behavior. Over time, they will learn to associate the sound with behavior correction and modify their actions accordingly.
8. Use sparingly and responsibly - Avoid using the device excessively or as a punishment, as it may cause unnecessary stress to your dog.
Additionally, The light switch has three positions.
• Slide it forward to use the device solely as a flashlight (handy feature, right?).
• Slide it to the “I” position to use the flashlight with the ultrasonic trainer. When you press the ON button, your dog will hear the high-frequency sound and see the light. This is an ideal setting for training your dog.
• Slide it to the “II” position to use the infrared light. When you press the ON button you will see a red light, which is ideal for distracting aggressive barking dogs and dogs that don’t belong to you. Use it when you’re at home in your yard and bothered by a neighbor’s barking dog, or take it on walks to distract dogs that bark at you as you enjoy a stroll.
Hope this helps! Let me know if there’s anything else I can assist you with.
