Rank #2 in Best Anti Bark Device 2026: 10 Ranked, Two of Them Identical
Handheld Ultrasonic Bark Deterrent, 50 ft, 120 g
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Enhanced ultrasonic anti-barking device sits at number two in this guide: £19.99, 4.3 out of 5 from 102 ratings, model number Q01. It is a 120 g handheld unit in black and orange that runs on a built-in rechargeable battery and emits 25kHz to 29kHz.
Its headline number is range. The bullets claim up to 50 ft, the longest distance claimed anywhere in this guide, and the specification table printed alongside the same listing gives package dimensions, weight, colour and model number — but no range figure at all. The battery has two figures as well: the bullets say 2 hours of charging gives up to 30 days of standby, while a customer review of the same device describes 6 months. Both sit in the listing, and they disagree. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing for this product, not from any testing we have carried out.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
“Item received in good condition in a branded box. This anti barking device for dogs is also rechargeable and is a great training tool for your dog.With the rechargeable battery it takes approximately 2 hours to get a full charge and has an impressive 6 months standby time. It's a great size and fits into your pocket easily for those walks out with your dog. It also has a safety loop for your wrist and fits nicely in your hand too. This is great for training outdoors, at the park or at home. This is also 100% safe for your dog as well as any humans within the area when you use it.This is ideal for any dogs from 6 months through to older dogs and is suitable for most breeds. We only have a small dog, which it has worked well so far. This has really helped when out on our walks and other dogs are seen. One press and he seems to concentrate on myself and leaving the other dogs alone. A good product and has helped us so far.”
“If you dog is old or senile this isn't effective, but its good for younger dogs, they will hear it and react immediately. One of them skiddadled away and hid behind the counter. So it's extremely effective, it just depends on if your dog is capable of hearing it.”

Questions people ask
How far does the Enhanced Q01 reach?
The bullets state up to 50 ft, the longest reach claimed anywhere in this guide. The specification table in the same listing gives package dimensions, weight, colour and model number, and no range figure at all.
How long does the battery last between charges?
The bullets say 2 hours of charging gives up to 30 days of standby. A customer review of the same device describes 6 months of standby. The listing carries both numbers, and they do not match.
Does the Enhanced Q01 use replaceable batteries?
No. The specifications list 'Batteries required: No', and the bullets describe a built-in rechargeable lithium battery charged by cable.
What frequency does the Enhanced Q01 emit?
The bullets give 25kHz to 29kHz, described as inaudible to humans and as safe and painless for dogs.
Will it work on an older dog?
The listing makes no age qualification. One customer review reports that it worked immediately on younger dogs but had no effect on a dog described as old or senile, because the result depends on the dog being able to hear it.
What does it cost and how is it rated?
£19.99, with 4.3 out of 5 from 102 ratings: 69 five-star, 14 four-star, 4 three-star, 4 two-star and 9 one-star.
