Pet Chime Wireless Electronic Pet Doorbell

Tired of your pet scratching the door, barking, or howling when he wants to come inside. Want to teach your pet to tell you when they are ready to go outside. Pet Chime is a portable, wireless electronic pet doorbell that allows pets to tell you when they need to come in or go out.

Two piece device: a paw-shaped remote control transmitter and a receiver chime. The wireless Paw is designed to look like a paw print and can sit on the floor or mount on the wall. When your pet pushes the Pet Chime Paw, the chime tones to let you know your pet is ready. Easy-to-follow directions are included so very easy to train your pet. The chime gives you two choices of tones – either a dog bark or a “ding-dong” chimes.

Works with both dogs and cats. To activate a chime, pets simply step on or push the paw with its nose. Select from two chime sounds: a dog bark or traditional ding-dong. The paw operates on one 9-volt battery, and the chime uses three AA batteries (batteries not included). Battery life is up to 10,000 chimes. Remote control works up to 100 ft. away from the chime.

Paw and chime are made of durable plastic. (Paws are weather resistant.) Chime can stand on a counter, table, or shelf or be mounted on the wall.

1 Star Maybe if it worked…
Once I received this item I went right out and bought all new batteries and set it up. Within probably three days of little to no use…it stopped working altogether. Don’t waste your money.

3 Stars Great idea to keep pets from scratching at the door!!
This idea is great. The kids love it and it amuses many. The presentation is a little cheesy and less than refined but, this can be enjoyed because of the practicality of it.

The transmitter -> receiver reception has a little to be desired. The product says that they can be 100 ft apart. If ours is more than 10 feet apart it doesn’t work ( no chime). If the transmitter/receiver are around a corner/outside a door/or too far apart (10 ft) this system didn’t work for us. We thought of returning it but then found a work around where we placed the chime next to the door (since it is loud enough to be heard throughout) and the paw at the door. In this set up, we can put the paw outside so that our pooch can tell us she needs to come inside without scratching. Thank you for that!!

1 Star Does not work
This product does not work, your dog will pee on the carpet waiting for you to open the door. It only rings about 50% of the time buttom is pushed even with the receiver 5ft away. A piece of junk made in China. I am sending mine back for a refund.

4 Stars The best present
I got my husband this and a brand new state-of-the-art camcorder for Christmas. He said this was his best present in years. It’s saving our front door from the dog scratching to get in. OK, the naysayers are right; it did go off on its own once in a while in the first couple of weeks. But we’d shake it a bit and then it would be fine. It no longer is a problem. Yeah, it feels a bit cheesy; I doubt it will last forever, but there’s nothing else like it on the market. A word of warning, follow the instructions for training your dog. Our dog has always picked things up super fast so I thought we didn’t need to follow the training guidelines; it took several days before he got it. Anyway, we’re quite happy.

4 Stars Ordering more though its not perfect
I’ve used the pet chime for a couple years. It’s great but it’s not perfect. Sometimes the paws stop working and you have to shake them.

They are also sensitive to moisture and freezing. Mine never get wet but they stil have a problem with the weather. The one problem I have is how do you tell your dog you can only ring the bell if you need to go to the bathroom. Not just because you want to check out the front yard for a minute and come right back in.
