Gadget Silences Noisy Neighborhood Dogs
Does your neighbor's dog bark incessantly all day and night, or worse, tell you to kill? Put down the arsenic-laced Scooby snacks and instead pick up Bark Free, a nifty little gadget that silences the sound of a dog barking from 30, 50 or 60 feet away depending on the model. When Fido barks, Bark Free flips on and emits ultrasonic sound waves, which are undetectable to the human ear. When the barking stops, the sound is switched off. Though not harmful to the perpetrating pooch, the ultrasonic sound is rather unpleasant for him and he quickly learns not to bark in the vicinity of your yard. Prices range from $70 to $120.Man, cats are gonna have a field day with this one.

For all you people so worried about getting robbed, let me point this out to you. This gadget is not intended for dogs that only bark once in a great while, this is for dogs that bark OFTEN. Think about it. If your dog barks all the time, and you don't bother to train it to do otherwise, then you will just end up ignoring it when, in the off-chance, it's barking because you're actually being robbed. It would be like the car alarm that goes off every 5 minutes. Would you check it out every time? Of course not! It would be treated as nothing more than an annoyance. If you still don't get it, then read the story of the boy who cried, "WOLF", then maybe you'll get it.

NO GOOD...TELL YOU WHAT DOES WORK...CALL THE OWNER OF THE DOG UP AT 2:30 AM AND JUST BARK INTO THE PHONE WHEN THEY ANSWER.

Is one of these devices available for motorcycles?

Let's invent a device, instead, that shocks the OWNERS of the dogs whenever their dog starts barking- as they obviously can't understand (DUH.) that their dog wants to come in the house.
Hell, let's just invent a device that shocks ignorant/stupid/cruel dog owners, in general, who leave their dogs alone on a chain all day, caring nothing at all about the animal that they supposedly love. These people should never be allowed to own an animal, period.

Nothing works better than a wristrocket slingshot. I have trained all the barkers in my neighborhood with it. Now when one starts to bark, all I have to do is say, "HEIT" and they stop for the rest of the night. :)
