I was somewhat dissatisfied when my dog was able to take the rolling ball apart after only an hour of playing with it and had the motorized internal parts in his mouth, It could have been a choking hazard. Before giving him the ball I did make sure the it was screwed together tightly and correctly, Great concept and I had high hopes that it would be a toy to keep my dog occupoed but I don't think it works for all breeds of dogs
Our Maltese, was constantly barking in the house when she heard noises and saw people walking. Used it only when I had to and she stopped. Have yet to use it when talking her for her walk but based on the experience it had with BarxBuddy already, I am sure it will serve its purpose in training our dog who is adopted
Its a complete waste of money. My 1 year old JRT got so aggressive after this, i had to takr him to a vet. Whats worse, the company never responds to any of ur emails. So now i dont even know how or if at all i can return this. Worst item ive ever bought.
We have 2 dogs that we rescued as adults, and they were not trained to stifle barking on command. They bark when someone comes to the door, they bark at other dogs on our walk, they bark when they hear another dog at a distance, on TV or if one walks by outside. I don't believe in the shock collar. It seems cruel, so we just did our best to command them to "please stop", "leave it' etc. When I heard about BarxBuddy I had a good feeling about it. It works as advertised. One click of the button and like magic, they stop. Thank you! This has improved our lives immensely!
Quick and easy. Wish it would work from my sitting in the chair. By the time I get out of the chair and get between the dog and the door, she has already been barking off her head for several minutes.
I ordered a BarxBuddy for my stubborn dog. My order came in sooner than expected. The website was easy to navigate through and the price was great. I actually got it on a deal so I was able to get 50% off. Not sure how the actual product will work for my doggie but we will see.
Good experience with the company and the online purchase was smooth, shipping was fast! My dog chewed the ball apart, I tightened very tight. It was a matter of minutes after getting it out of the mail and my Australian Shepherd opened the ball in half and the power button came off.
We purchased Barxbuddy 2 weeks ago and from the first day its been a Godsend, they stopped barking at everything like loud noises to the mailman stopping in front of the house, we have stopped yelling and they are quiet and my home is more at peace. Love this product and I recommend it to anyone with and out of control dog who barks when they shouldn't, Thank you!
Looking forward to giving it to my son's dog for Christmas. I did receive two e-mails. One asked if I received the ball and the second asked about my experience with my purchase. Right now, I am not impressed. I have never bought a dog toy so expensive and was looking forward to watching the dog play with it.

I have bought a lot of gadgets but never have I been completely compelled to write a review. Hands down this is the best product I have ever purchased and the price is very low for how amazing it works. I have 2 stubborn girls. Not only does this product fix unwanted barking but it has stopped digging. I also use it to call them to come inside when they procrastinate and don't listen when I call. Best most humane easy to use product. Absolutely amazing how well it works to get there attention. Thank you so much.
She stopped barking in minute I touched the button. I have only used it a couple of times so far, so I can't give a definitive response to your question, but so far, the product seems to do what it's supposed to.
Bought this after having the citronella collar and the vibration collar. This device (and I bought an extra to keep in the car for when we go places) won't be forgotten. After only a couple of days, all I have to do is use it once or twice and then after that if they bark I show it to the girls and the barking stops!
Working so far. Each time she starts barking at the window I try to jump up, grab the remote and run over to her. When I get there in time it definitely distracts her from barking and paying attention to the source of her excitement--usually people in the street or at the door.
I didn't like all the extra orders. I am disappointed with the BarxBuddy. When I used it, it made my dog more excited and barked more and became aggressive. Totally out of control. I will keep trying a bit longer to see if he responds better to it. If not I'll return it.

I was dubious when I bought it as we had bought a collar that was supposed to stop barking. It didn't. And it cost twice as much. So, despite my concerns I bought it and have been happily surprised that it actually works. It's a great relief for me and my neighbors and family.
I bought my barxbuddy from you. Here is my problem... I have a two month old Maltese puppy will not stop biting me. I use the Bar buddy on her stating "no bite" and she ignores the bar buddy and light with the red dot and ignores me totally. Is the bar buddy working or not? It does not affect her at all. HELP! I am all cut up from her bites.
I got so I that I dreaded walking my dog because she would bark whenever she saw another dog or person walking near us. I just couldn't stop the barking. I am thrilled to say that has changed. It is possible to "teach an old dog new tricks" with the help of this device. For a couple of days she got very nervous when she went on the patio. She associated the area near the gate and wanted no part of that
Device. She finally doesn't run when She sees the device in my hand. I'm enjoying the peace when we go for walks now.
I purchased a BarxBuddy and am not able to close the battery door so am not able to use the product. I alerted the company of this problem and they have refused to replace it or do anything else to fix it. Do not buy this product. There are other companies that sell similar products. I don't know how well their "bark buddy's" work but it can't be worse than a BarxBuddy. I tried to add a photo but this page would not let me attach it.
This was very easy to use. Just had to put battery in and point to my dog. It really works on my dog. He's starting to behave himself. I'm going to use it to train him to be a better dog. I love this and I think it will make him a very well behaved dog.
Tried to sent back within hours of receiving. Company will not respond to numerous emails and calls. The product does not work, and the unit appears to be a knockoff--- no labeling as on website, etc. The company is totally ignoring requests for refund! DO NOT BUY! Reported to American Express and they are also investigating.
