Will they bother my dogs?

I believe it is a different frequency vibration than that which bothers dogs. It does not bother my poodles, and I have four.

I have two Yorkies, and they pay no attention to the noise, but your dog could be different. Just remember you could try it and send back if too annoying. In my book nothing is more annoying that gophers destroying your landscaping!

Have 4 Sweeney's scattered thru yard. Can't see any disturbance w/ our 2 small (21' & 6') dogs. But they don't spend more than 2 hours in backyard total throughout the day. And the Sweeneys are in plant beds not immediately adjacent to where the dogs hang out. Sorry I can't say how they'll be 100% w/ your dogs. We've been happy w/ the Sweeney Mole Sonic spikes performance!

My dogs will grind them to nubs. I don't pitch them until I'm worried they'll get choked on.

Sure just dont put them in really high so its pulling their fur really tight because they may dig and scratch at it. We are going to use then on our daughters pony for its next show!

This is meant for cats and not dogs. I personally haven't tested it on dogs to be honest.I would email the manufacturer and ask them, will this bother my dogs.

If they get about 30 ft away, the sound will be less 'noticeable' to the Dog. Meaning, It's easier for them to ignore. Hope this helps :)

Afraid not as we no longer use this product. Nothing as such wrong with it but found them to be rather too small for our dogs. regards.

They are soft and make no sound, your dog will be comfortable in them, mine is and doesn't mind them at all.A very good product. Good luck.

They can be pretty sensitive, depending on how they're set. A slight breeze moving a curtain can do it. A pet walking by?

Supposedly they do not hurt. Our dog did not make any sound that would indicate the collar hurt her. But we have switched to a different type of collar because we read too much about the damage to a dog's trachea from constant pulling on any collar around the neck.

My barking dog stopped and turned to look at me to see what I wanted. My second dog who was not barking turned and looked at me to see what I wanted. Mine had no adverse reactions. I was even more than 18 inches away.

The sensors are built into the unit. Likely it does not hurt you dog, just surprises and annoys. Kind of like my dog barking when I am trying to sleep.

Depends on the dog. One of my dogs is terrified by it while the others bark less but not completely

I think it would not be a good idea for you to have them where your dog could have access. They are attractive to animals (for some reason) and your dog could choke on them. Wouldn't be worth it, I think.

unfortunately they are. I have been using for over a year with my Chihuahuas and never had a problem. However I did stop using for now because of the scare.

I have 4 min schnauzers - one is very sensitive to high pitched sounds. No one seemed bothered by it. But since we know only one out if four is bothered by those sonic pet trainers maybe your pup is super sensitive. It is a good elliptical. Just bad for my hips.

If they are not hurting anything just leave them alone. They interact well with other animals, they will stay out of your way and they do not destroy anything. They are not like rodents and some other wild life. I have bats that nest next to where my goats bed down and there is not any issues.
