Apartment dweller here and my neighbor has a small yappy dog that barks endlessly when she goes to work. I see there are ultrasonic barking suppressor gadgets available but do they work and will it work through the wall between our apartments (drywall, no brick)?

Jesus fucking Christ this thread again.

No, they don't work.

The only answer is the jet shaker or move.

They don't do shit. Check for cameras and slide a piece of ham covered in xylitol under the door. The dog is small so it's gonna kill it in a day if you're lucky.

If you weren't a faggot you would wrangle the owner instead
But at the end of the day you are just like that dog, under the boot in fear of authority

How do these things work?

I had an obese, histrionic former neighbor who collected rescue dogs and never walked them. 5 dogs, constantly barking, including a young German shepherd. Also, she never cleaned up the dog shit so there were flies everywhere.

Long story short, people like this don't care about you, have no consideration for others, or their pets. If you poison it, they will only get another one to fill the God sized void in their psyche. They deserve an animal to never take care of or train properly.
The ultra sonic things don't do anything without actually training the dog. They will get used to it.

Thankfully this cunt was behind on her mortgage, had to sell and moved to Tennessee.

Side note: she put in a non permitted fence which I forced her to remove and then called the cops on my fence installer. They basically laughed at her as my permit existed. Afterwards blamed her behavior on knee problems and then texted me "please go away and leave me alone".

You can't win here unless you move or they move. You're trying to unwind years of psychological damage and threaten their fur mom instinct.

Tldr; bad dog owners should be killed

They are a training tool, but marketed like an without training they just stop dogs from barking. Dogs hear more frequencies than us.

>>
>>3010507

Side Quest:
if you light a candle and use this device on it. it'll blow out the candle

wtf is a jet shaker, in this context?
>>
>>3010507
don't Apts and even Condos with HOAs come down HARD on shit like barking dogs?

just about every suburbs at least in CA has laws on books to take STRONG legal action against barking dogs. I've known dog owners that have been threatened with it and its pretty much "one warning, next time dog goes" and IIRC you get about one more catch to bail out the dog but next time they "keep" the dog, and no you can't have your buddy bail him out as "adoption".

Tell your LL "dog goes or I go...and so will your next renter because I'll tell them you didn't tell them about the dog problem, and that will fuck you hard in court".

Yes, they do.

One of my neighbors put something similar to this in their front yard. They're motion activated to presumably discourage other people's dogs from urinating on their lawn. They are obnoxious and irritating even to people walking by. Which is to say, they go great with their "RESIST" and "Love thy neighbor. Abolish ICE" signs on their lawn.

Prove it. Thinking these work shows a fundamental misunderstanding of dog physiology and psychology.

It does prove why snake oil salesman have been successful for millennia.

the devices work. you just have to be persistance and have easy access to the dog. in my situation, the dog would sit all day at the front door.

You guys know that you smartphones can reproduce high frequency sounds, right?
Just searched for "bark shield sound" on youtube and found this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyxbhqFpS9s . Maybe try it...

Sounds like an air compressor, but I bet it's only part of the experience
