FOLKSMATE Dog Doorbells for Potty Training Dog Puppy Door Bells with 7 Extra Loud Bells Adjustable for Dog Training and Housebreaking – Macrame

I have a 3yo rescue pug who came into my home this past Feb, which is when I first purchased this. She ignored it for a while, despite my best efforts to train her. About a week ago, she finally made the correlation between the ringing bells and going outside. She now uses it to communicate with me when she wants to go outside. This is not exclusive to bathroom breaks, and it's also how she tells me she wants to play fetch. I highly recommend this for even the most stubborn pups. It has turned into an effective communication tool.

Puppy quickly learned to ring bell when she had to go out. She also figured out that she could ring the bell when she wanted water, treats ect. Pretty soon the bell was ringing several times an hour. I felt like I was living in an episode of TheTwilight Zone.

It does have different buttons to adjust how long it is but it's not great for a door knob because it falls off pretty easy it also can get caught in the door (depends on placement) I do recommend having it on a hook of any kind.

Great bell. My dog needs more work however. Very loud and long enough for my small stubborn dog to reach.

My dog quickly learned that the jingle means OUTSIDE. Whether to go potty or to just play in the backyard, it’s the most simple way for him to communicate. Highly recommend for any dog learning potty training.

Nice product. Very well made. I love them more then the dog.

The media could not be loaded.  So I got custody of Molly in the divorce because her father was trifling. And it really was a good thing because we are better off, but I decided that our big house with the big dog door (where Molly could go in and out as she pleased) was too much space to rattle around in. My new house was not big enough to install another big dog door for my sweet, 150 lb. dog with a big bladder. After spending too much time with Molly standing and staring at me apparently trying to let me know that she wanted to go outside, I ordered this doggie doorbell.She was easy to train by pulling the doorbell out and touching her nose with it as I said, "Ring your bell," (in a sing-songy voice) immediately praising her, and letting her go outside. So I paired a verbal prompt with a partial physical prompt of ringing the bell, and her reinforcement was to get what she wanted which was to go outside. Google "Pavlov's dog!"As she grew accustomed to it, I pulled out less and less of the doorbell and eventually let it hang at the door at which time I would prompt her to touch it with her nose. If she didn't, I would say, "Ring your bell!", tap the bell, and encourage her to touch it with her nose. Now, she does it all by herself. She even has the same doorbell on the outside of the screen door so she can let me know that she needs to come back in.Sometimes, she cops an attitude and stands outside and barks at me. I just say, "You're not going to talk to me like that! You need to ring your bell." And she does.Giving Molly a method to communicate this particular need has made me wonder what else she could communicate.Her brother, Stash, the cat with a moustache who is indoors only, rang the bell the other day after she rang it and went outside. I'm pretty confident that if Stash were an outdoor cat, I could train him to use it as well.So this bell is pretty durable and sturdy because it gets worn out by this 150 lb dog. It's long enough that little dogs could reach it. And the bells are loud enough that you can hear it in the other room.I highly recommend it for potty training. You can't just hang it up and have it work automatically. You do have to train your pet to use it. Do it in small steps moving the pet closer and closer to the final behavior that you want which is to ring it independently.I'm an elementary teacher with a doctorate from Vanderbilt, and I'm studying to be a BCBA. But you don't need my training to use this product. Remember, successive small steps towards the final behavior you want to see your pet exhibiting. I hope this helps someone.

My little Havanese puppy picked this one up very quick. He loves ringing the doggy doorbell. We are/were transitioning from indoor potty pads.I feel the doggy doorbell gave my little guy a sense confidence, he can easily communicate his need to go outside and potty.He's a good boy! 🐶❤🐶

If I was not traumatized by the shrieks of my puppy I would have taken a video to share! It serves its purpose to potty train but the problem is that the dogs paws keep getting caught in the bell and the dog would cry out in pain! And this has happened several times - today I just decided to take it down I’ve seen my dog suffer enough! It’s a great idea and I would have given 5 stars if the bells were closed ! The manufacturer must find a way to close the bells to avoid the dog from getting hurt!!

So I tried to train my dog with these bells on a few occasions and have had no success. When he was 4-5 months he would bark and growl at them, and as he got older he would just try to chew and attack them. They're really loud which is a pro if you live in a big house and you want to be able to hear them from anywhere, but they're unncessarily loud for apartment dwellers in my opinion. I have friends who use these for their dogs and have never had any issues so I don't want to completly knock them, but they didn't do the trick for us. We eneded up switching to recordable buttons and had great success.

This product is good for training your puppy and it long so any size dog can reach it hanging from your door handle. However, I was disappointed as the price fluctuates a lot, after purchasing the price dropped like $3 a couple times but not a big deal. Would recommend

Lot louder then most bells I find it better to use
