Operating Instructions
The BarxBuddy device features an ultrasonic sound emitter and an LED flashlight for versatile training and utility.
Ultrasonic Bark Control & Training
- The device emits an ultrasonic sound within the dog's hearing range (15Hz to 120KHz), which is generally inaudible to humans (20Hz - 20KHz).
- To activate the ultrasonic sound, press and hold the main button. This sound is designed to safely grab your dog's attention and interrupt unwanted behaviors.
- Use this function to deter actions such as excessive barking, digging, fighting, or eating unsafe items.
- The effective range for the ultrasonic sound is up to 20 feet.

Figure 4: The BarxBuddy device has an effective range of up to 20 feet for training.
LED Flashlight Function
- The device includes a super bright LED flashlight.
- Use the dedicated switch to turn the flashlight on for illumination during night walks or in low-light conditions.
- When the main button is held down, the device will not only emit ultrasonic sound but also rapidly flash the bright LEDs. This visual stimulus can serve as a secondary deterrent for more stubborn dogs.
Portability
The compact and handheld design, along with the included wrist strap, makes the BarxBuddy device easy to carry and use anywhere – at home, in the park, or during walks and jogs to deter other approaching dogs.
