So far it helps a little

Noise gets dogs attention, but wish it was smaller, hard to hold can, shake when holding dog leash and trying to manage dog!!!!!

Having trained animals most of my life, a food shaker is a great way to redirect a dog's attention. It takes a training period of several days/weeks of acclimating dogs to the idea that the shake sound = treat. What's great about a shaker is that is loud enough and distinct enough (unlike your voice which you use for all sorts of occasions with your pup) to immediately grab their attention and redirect. The problem with this product is that it is mostly just an empty can that contains metal bits for the shake sound. Only a small zippered area at top is for treats. Usually, a shaker is a plastic container with a flip lid that you can shake (the dog treats inside make the noise) and quickly dispense. The zipper on this cheap and hangs up a lot, so it is not easy to use. Honestly, I thought this product was a variation of the flip lid variety or I would not have purchased. The shake noise is great, but it has a lot wasted space and the treat pouch is just too darn hard to access even if the zipper was well made (which it isn't).

We have a barker and this little device has helped out a lot. The bottom half is a noisemaker, which really helps get our Shih-Tzu's attention when she is barking. Then the top half holds treats, so you can IMMEDIATELY reward for the cessation. For being a simple training tool it's really effective, and it's not a shock collar or some other harsher bark control device. For our dog, it works about half the time, and it seems like she's cut down on her barking time. We will definitely continue to use it.
