Features
Everything you need in one easy bundle.
If you're stuck listening to someone else's dog, you don't need the added hassle of trying to figure out which products to use. This (extremely) popular bundle provides everything you’ll need to control your neighbor’s dog barking quickly – without any stress or awkward confrontations.
So sit back, relax, and get the peace and quiet you deserve.
Power Up With The MAX
High-pressure ultrasonic sound in the dog's ear quickly distracts them from barking. It's a humane – yet very effective – way to train dogs.
All the Accessories You Need & Want
Optional faceplate cover allows for super stealth placement of your Dog Silencer MAX. You also get a pan/tilt mounting bracket, AC adapter, and a 18.3-metre extension cord to install the MAX anywhere you need it.
Additional Features
Use the Remote for Manual Precision
The MAX automatically detects barking up to 22.9 m away, but if the dog is outside of that range you can trigger it manually with the included remote control.
Durable and Weather-Resistant
Storms and sprinklers are no problem for the Dog Silencer MAX's IPX4 waterproof rating. And for added peace of mind, you can even purchase an extra 3-year Protection Plan that covers everything from destructive dogs to class-5 tornadoes.
Where to Use It
The Discreet Neighbor pack comes with everything you need to install the device and stop barking for good. You can hang it from a tree, a fence, your house, or wherever you need it. This allows the MAX to have direct line of site to the barking dog so you achieve the best possible results every time.
How It Works
Every time the dog barks, your Dog Silencer MAX will sent out a powerful high-pitched tone. Dogs find this sound extremely annoying, similar to fingernails on a chalkboard. Most dogs learn pretty quickly that if they are quiet, they won't have to hear this irritating sound anymore.
For best results, the training device needs to have a clear line of sight with the dog(s) you wish to train.
General Steps
- The Dog Silencer MAX automatically detects barking.
- In response, the device blasts high-pitched sounds that only the dog can hear. This process is completely safe and humane. The sounds annoy the dog, but don't harm him.
- In a few short weeks (sometimes sooner), the dog learns to stop barking to avoid hearing the sounds. Be ready to fine-tune your device's settings during this initial training period for best results.
- Success! Enjoy your peace and quiet.

Q&A
-
What is ultrasonic sound?
Ultrasonic sound is above the hearing range of humans, but is attention grabbing and irritating to dogs. This makes a safe and effective tool for dog training. It takes your dog's focus off of barking and towards the high-pitched sound.

What is Audio mode?
When using “Audio” mode, you will hear the Dog Silencer MAX activate. It's recommended you use this mode when adjusting the bark sensitivity when first setting up the unit. In addition, you can use the audio mode for older dogs or dogs with poor hearing as an alternative to the ultrasonic sound training.
-
Is the High-Low dial for volume?
The high-low dial on the side of the unit adjusts the microphone sensitivity. This is not a volume setting. You may adjust the sensitivity of the bark sensor between “High” (if the dog is far away) and “Low” (if the dog is near the unit, or if the unit is being used indoors).
We recommend you start with the unit on low and then increase the sensitivity as needed. There is no volume change necessary on the Dog Silencer MAX, as the ultrasonic frequencies can travel up to 300′ (91 m) in a clear, unobstructed path. -
Will this bother my other pets?
Cats and dogs have very similar hearing ranges, so if your cat is near the unit when it's activated, yes, it will probably bother the cat. But, the sound from the Dog Silencer MAX does not go through walls or around corners. For example, if the Dog Silencer MAX is located in the back yard, and your cat is in the front yard or even in the house, the sound should not bother him at all. If the Dog Silencer MAX is being used indoors, you'll want to keep cats and / or rodent pets out of the area where that is being used.
-
Will this work for whining or howling?
If the Dog Silencer MAX is close to the dog, you may be able to adjust the microphone sensitivity higher to pick up howling or even whining. If this doesn't work, you might consider our BarkWise™ no-shock training collars for your dog.
Also keep in mind that a dog might be howling or whining for reasons such as discomfort, fear, or anxiety. These issues should be discussed with a veterinarian instead of “punished” with any bark control system. -
Can I use the Dog Silencer MAX with a puppy?
We do not recommend using the Dog Silencer MAX on puppies under 1-year of age. Please consult your veterinarian.
-
Will this work through fences, walls, windows, or bushes?
No. The high-pitched sounds emitted by our training devices cannot penetrate any solid objects such as wood fences, windows, walls or thick shrubbery.
However — sparse trees, window screens, chain link and wrought-iron fences should be okay.
Related Post: What will ultrasonic sound go through? -
Can the Dog Silencer MAX be used with an electronic/invisible fence?
We recommend you do not use any ultrasonic bark control devices in combination with invisible fence systems. This is because the sound frequencies emitted by our bark control devices are very similar to those emitted by the invisible fence collar. This may cause confusion and interfere with the dog's training.

How does the remote control work?
Your purchase includes a keychain-size remote control which can be used to activate the device manually. The remote can be used up to 75 feet (23m) away from the main unit, and is convenient for on-demand training.
-
Should I use batteries or electricity? How long does the battery last?
You can use batteries or electricity — it's your choice. But for best results we do recommend using the included AC adapter, especially in the early stages of training when the dog will be barking more. Battery life will vary depending on the weather, the quality of the batteries used, as well as how often the unit is being activated.
If you need to use batteries, rechargeables are a great option to save money. We also offer a new Solar Panel add-on!
Note: Please do not use aftermarket AC adapters ( those not purchased from Good Life® ) as this will void your product warranty. -
Will it hurt or harm the dog in any way?
No it will not. All Good Life products are designed to be safe and humane, and they are only designed to stop excess or nuisance barking. The high-pitched training sounds are not painful or harmful, and if a dog really needs to bark, he can. They will not stop a dog from barking out of instinct (at an intruder for example).
Although not harmful, the sounds emitted by our products may be too intense for puppies under one year of age as they are still developing their hearing. Please consult your veterinarian before using this product with puppies. -
How long before I should expect results?
While many customers see the effects within a few days, this unit is a training device and will depend on how quickly the dog associates the sound with his barking. Some customers also report the dog barking at the unit, or barking more than usual in the first few days.
This is a normal part of the learning process. We strongly recommend you give the device two to three weeks to see full results. -
Does it have to be on all the time?
For best results, the unit needs to be on and in use near the dog at all times (it will go into standby mode when the dog is not barking). For best results, the unit needs to be left on so that it can activate consistently each time the dog barks.
-
What is the range/angle/coverage area?
The ultrasonic sounds will emit in a cone shape of about 130°, or about 65° on each side. The sound is directional, and will have the best training results if the device is pointed directly at the dog(s) you wish to train.
