We purchased the Bark Off Ultrasonic Training Aid and following the directions precisely. Our Yorkie was not fazed by it one bit. It is advertised to stop unnecessary barking. We placed it by the front door where she does most of her barking. It's plugged in to electricity; we also tried using a battery in the other one. Both are under a 5 to 10 ft...

bark-off fraud

I bought a bark off and I opted for one of there upgrades it was supposed to be 16.99 and if I wanted a second bark-off $6.99 more the bill came to $80.93 I immeditly called them and they said they would cancel the order but to check back with them because the order was not in the system yet, So I called back on monday after wait forever on the phone they said the order was not in the system yet. Called back tuesday same thing. Tues afternoon the charge comes through on my paypal card (they send you a e-mail everything something is charged to your card) I called TEL*TELEBRANDS INTERNE and they say they cannot cancel the order all they can do is give me a number to return the item and they will refund my card less shipping and handeling. I did not want them to ship it in the first place I wanted to cancel. I am ripped off no matter what.

I purchased Bark-Off at Petsmart in Boca Raton, Florida approximately 3 weeks ago and even changed the battery three times because I saw no reaction to it by my 4 year old pomeranian. I was very disappointed that my dog didn't react to it one bit...what can you do for me and what can you suggest.

Ok so whats up with all of us that bought these disfunctional
Bark offs how if at all can we get our money back?
My freind ordered one & got three but her dog never
Not once responded to it at all, she tried all three but
Got the same result of no response to any of them!
I feel that whoever invented these & the companies
They were bought from needs to refund us all cause
They are scams!
Thats really not cool that we got ripped off no matter
How you look at it!

Bark off has something wrong with it big time. I bought one and as soon as put a battery in it and turned it on I came up with vertigo. I became very unstable on my feet and when I would bend over I felt like I was going to fall over. Felt very strange in my head. As soon as I took the battery out of this thing all symptoms left. Didn't seem to affect the dog. I don't need this thing for me; I wanted it to help get the dog to stop barking at everything out side. I put this thing out side on the picnic table where the dog was and it still affected me. By the way This Spell Check does not work.
