PetSafe Elite Outdoor Bark Control is a weatherproof outdoor device designed to help curb dog barking, with coverage for up to 1/4 acre and a built-in digital timer.

• Birdhouse-style design — blends into an outdoor setting.
• Works with dogs of all sizes from 6 months old — suits a range of dogs.
• Replaceable 9-volt alkaline battery — powers the unit without a cord.
• LED low-battery indicator — shows when the battery needs attention.

For dogs whose barking carries into the yard, PetSafe Elite provides an outdoor response without requiring you to be beside your dog each time. The built-in timer lets you set specific times for the unit to switch on and off, helping limit repeated exposure to the ultrasonic tone and conserve battery life. PetSafe has developed products for pet behavior, containment and lifestyle since 1998.

How much outdoor space does one PetSafe Elite cover?

One weatherproof PetSafe Elite unit covers up to 1/4 acre. For a larger outdoor area, you can use additional units; hang the device in a tree or set it on a solid outdoor surface.

• Made for outdoor use in changing weather conditions.
• Choose a hanging or stable surface placement outdoors.
• Coverage is per unit, so larger spaces can be served with more units.

How does PetSafe Elite respond when a dog barks?

An internal microphone detects barking and triggers a high-frequency ultrasonic tone. The tone continues for 3 seconds after a bark, then stops until another bark is detected. Its sweeping, wave-like sound is designed to catch a dog’s attention and is harder to ignore than a consistent tone; it is inaudible to most people, though it may be annoying to dogs.

• Dogs can learn to associate their barking with the tone.
• PetSafe reports that most dogs curb excessive barking within 2 weeks; results can vary.

What powers PetSafe Elite, and which dogs is it for?

PetSafe Elite is designed for dogs of all sizes that are 6 months or older. It uses one replaceable 9-volt alkaline battery, which is not included, and its LED indicator alerts you when battery power is low.

• Use the digital timer to set specific on and off times.
• Scheduled operation can help prevent a dog from becoming desensitized to the tone and can conserve battery life.

PetSafe Elite is suited to dog owners who want a weatherproof, timed bark-control device for an outdoor area of up to 1/4 acre per unit. Its microphone-triggered ultrasonic response, flexible placement and timer make it an outdoor option for dogs aged 6 months and older.
