Crazy Critter and The BarkOff Product Review

What is a crazy critter? Here is a quick video to give you all an overview of what a crazy critter is.


When I was given the opportunity to review this product, honestly, I wasn't sure if I wanted to or not. We had never set out to give our dog, Shad, any toys. He seemed content on destroying anything that accidentally got left out in the yard. I wasn't sure if this sort of thing would appeal to him, but I was WRONG! Surprisingly wrong. I didn't get around to taking any pictures of him with it, because right now it doesn't look very good. It h as been left out in the rain and drug through the mud, but he still loves it! Big T loves to get the crazy critter and play tug-of-war with Shad. Of course Shad wins (he is at least 65 pounds). I am also impressed that this critter hasn't already been torn to bits like everything else Shad gets a hold of. It's a good little product.

The BarkOff came with the Crazy Critter for me to review. Shad has a problem with barking and living in town does not help the situation at all. We have a bark collar on him most of the time, but I hate having to make sure it's positioned properly on his neck all the time. He knows when you are messing with it on his neck and it's hard to get him to hold still. So I was interested in seeing how well the BarkOff worked for us.

Here is some information from the website.
BarkOff™ is the ingenious, ultrasonic training aid that allows you to take control over your dog's nuisance barking. Just switch on the BarkOff™ device and an ultrasonic signal, inaudible to human ears, instantly captures your dog's attention and immediately interrupts the barking pattern. This allows your dog to calm down and stop barking painlessly and naturally. Today, as part of this special introductory offer, you'll get you BarkOff™ for just $10 and only $6.99 shipping and handling. But that's not all! When you order today, you'll also receive a second BONUS BarkOff™ for the car or to give as a gift for just separate $6.99 shipping and handling. BarkOff™ works so well because the ultrasonic signal actually teaches your dog the difference between nuisance barking and barking that protects your family and your home. Battery-powered BarkOff™ can be used indoors or outside and is especially helpful in the car when you have to take your dog on a long drive. It allows you to control your dog's difficult behavior humanely without trying your patience. Best of all, BarkOff™ is small enough to fit in your pocket so you can take it virtually anywhere you take your dog!

When the BarkOff arrived I was eager to see if it would work. The only bad thing is I can't tell for sure that it's working. There isn't an indicator light or anything that shows that it's on, but I did notice if I talked loudly to someone on the other side of our property I would hear a little click coming from the device. I assume it is the product sending out the signal. Shad's barking still happened, but the BarkOff seemed to shorten the time he did bark which is a blessing. Although it seems like I need one or two more to be effective for use in our yard. It suggest to have more than one for your yard because a single unit reaches about 20 feet or so. So, I am not sure about it working for neighbor dogs, but it has helped with our dog. I think that if your dog is also primarily indoors it would probably work even better. Overall I think this is a decent product and for the price it doesn't hurt to give it a try.

Welcome to "Show and Tell Friday!" Do you have a something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, an antique find. Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! When we went to the Fall Festival a couple of weeks ago Hubby bought the children wooden swords. They have had so much fun with those...pretending to be knights, pirates, and soldiers. Well, hubby decided that he could make them just as well or better. So here is a finished sword made by hubby. (He actually ended up making seven!) Our local leather shop cut out the pieces for us which cut down on our work tremendously. Hopefully I can show off one that is much bigger soon. Hubby decided that he needs some protection from Big T and Sweet E so he is making himself one. :) **This wasn...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! Yesterday I was in our side yard raking up a pile of leaves for Sweet E to play in and I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was bright red. I looked down and saw three bright red objects in the grass. I picked them up....I have never seen these before. We are thinking they may possibly be wild strawberries, but are unsure since we have no prior experience with them. (really have no clue as to what they actually are.) And...what in the world would they be doing in the yard at the end of October! I just wanted to share pictures to see what everyone else thought. I thought it wa...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! This week I wanted to Show off Big T's latest adventure. Last week he attended Bible school and Grandma S' church. The theme was Avalanche Rance and I know there are a LOT of churches doing this one. It fit him perfectly since he has a love of horses. So I just wanted to share a few pictures from the last night of Bible school....or as Big T calls it, Cowboy School . ;) Here is a picture of Little E and Grandpa S waiting for the program to start. The next two pictures are of the children standing up front. Not good pictures, but you can tell they all have the "deer in the...
